Eightfold AI argues that modern orgs must shift from job-centric HR to talent-centered design—mapping work to skills, not titles. Using an AI-native talent intelligence platform, companies build dynamic, real-time profiles of people’s skills, adjacencies, and learnability to match talent to roles, projects, and growth paths.

Benefits span hiring (merit-based, wider pools), mobility and succession (skills-driven moves), L&D (personalized up/reskilling), and EX (meaningful work).
