Works with your tools

Your systems were built to record people, not to decide anything

  • Who to promote, who to staff on the critical project, who to hire: a year of output rides on gut feel.

  • You pay a €20,000 fee and wait three months for a skill that was already in the building.

  • Spreadsheets, decks, last year's performance cycle. By the time a manager needs the answer, the file is already describing a company that has moved on.

  • Your best people resign before anyone sees it coming, and the backfill costs up to twice their salary.

skillfora turns everyday work into a map of your organisation's capabilities

  • A feed of a teammate's work across GitHub, Linear and Figma, with fora concluding they are developing as a project manager.

    See the skills your workforce has today

  • fora reviewing a team for skill gaps and preparing a job ad for a new self-service payments role.

    Easily draft job ads based on real skill gaps

  • fora answering who could lead AI development next quarter by naming two teammates and the evidence for each.

    Find internal people who match new roles

  • Three teammates compared side by side, each with their own profile of skill strengths.

    Spot skills gaps before they hit your goals

  • what does Maya bring to the table?

    I’ll analyse how Maya could impact the team.

    • Analysed Maya’s skill profile
    • Compared Maya to team

    Maya is a great candidate and could improve the team in a number of ways. She’s a dedicated designer, shows a lot of promise in completing complex technical builds and is a self-starter. Alongside people like Jenny Wright she could grow into an excellent addition to the team.

    Hire on evidence, not just instinct

  • A job level grid with Engineering, Sales and Operations tracks laid out across seniority tiers.

How it works

skillfora builds the map from work your team has already done.

Try the demo

  1. Slack, Teams, GitHub, Figma, Linear and your HRIS. Connect them in-app in a few minutes. Nothing changes about how your team works.

  2. It builds the map from real execution: what people ship, review, solve and decide. No surveys, no self-assessments, no administrative tax on your managers. skillfora mirrors your existing tool permissions, so nobody sees anything they aren't already entitled to see.

  3. Every skill arrives as a suggestion with the evidence attached. Approve or reject in one click. The map stays accurate as the company changes, without anyone maintaining a spreadsheet.

  4. "Who could lead our AI pivot?" "Who can already do this job?" Ask in plain language and get names with the evidence behind each one, in seconds rather than six weeks.

Built for the leaders who are actually making the bets

Joris de Haas, founder of skillfora

I’m a talent strategist who spent years in the trenches of hyper-growth companies, watching leaders face high-context judgement calls like: who is at risk of leaving, who should lead this project, who is ready for more scope.

We built skillfora, an intuitive platform that helps you identify capability gaps, predict future market demands, and build a future-ready workforce.

We're taking on 10 Design Partners

We're early. The product works, there is a lot still to build, and the fastest way to build the right things is with a small number of companies rather than a long waitlist. So the first cohort is ten high-growth scale-ups, and then we stop.

FAQs

  • skillfora connects to the tools your team already uses—like Slack, Figma, GitHub, and your HRIS, and reads the signals in that everyday work to build a picture of what each person can actually do. Nothing is assumed: skillfora suggests the skills it finds and you approve or reject them in one click, so the map of your organisation stays accurate without anyone filling in a survey.

  • fora is the agent at the centre of skillfora. Ask it a question in plain language — who could lead our AI work, where are our biggest skill gaps, who is ready for more scope — and it answers from your team's real skills data, showing the evidence behind every recommendation. It also does the work: drafting skill profiles, job ads and job level frameworks for you to review.

  • skillfora integrates seamlessly with your existing tools without adding complexity. It complements your HR stack by centralising skills & position data in one easy-to-use platform.

  • Your HRIS knows what people were hired to do. skillfora knows what they've actually been doing since. A skills module built on an HRIS is populated by managers and self-assessment, which is why it goes stale and why nobody hires off it. skillfora reads real work, keeps up as the company changes, and sits on top of your HRIS rather than replacing it.

  • Absolutely. While skillfora can sit on top of legacy HRIS suites, it doesn't rely on them to function. skillfora builds your capability network by passively ingesting high-fidelity workflow traces directly from the tools your team already uses—like GitHub, Linear, and Slack. By tracking real execution artifacts instead of static HR profiles, skillfora functions as a powerful, stand-alone intelligence layer from day one.

  • We built an invisible network infrastructure that passively ingests high-fidelity workflow traces directly from your active repositories. Instead of relying on biased self-reporting, our agentic AI tracks real execution. Managers then verify this data with single-click, high-context toggles, establishing absolute data truth without the administrative tax of filling out forms.

  • skillfora is sovereign by design and operates on a zero-trust, permission-aware data handling framework: it mirrors your existing tool permissions and security rules, so nobody sees anything they aren't already entitled to see. We hold ourselves to industry standards for security and hosting to keep your data as protected as possible. Your company's 'Skills DNA' remains completely your own, and we never sell your data to third parties or use it to train generic, public models.
