Workera Leads the Charge in AI Readiness; Advanced Skills Intelligence Unveils Platform Updates and New Product Leadership

Company's Focus on Measuring AI Readiness Enterprise-Wide Drives Rapid Global Growth

PALO ALTO, Calif., June 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Workera, the leading AI-powered skills intelligence platform, today highlights its pivotal progress in equipping workforces for the AI era. With over 100 million skills verified to date, including a significant emphasis on AI competencies, Workera is setting the standard for measuring and developing AI readiness. This includes welcoming Taylor Sullivan as Head of Global Assessments and launching new, enterprise-ready capabilities within Sage, the AI mentor agent designed to verify and enhance AI-related skills across entire organizations.

The rising demand for AI skills is evident in Workera's nearly 100% year-over-year revenue growth and the addition of new clients, including BCG, Eli Lilly, and Reliance Industries Limited. This growth coincides with 89% of executives prioritizing verified skills in the hiring process, particularly as organizations recognize the critical importance of AI readiness. However, traditional methods for measuring skills often fall short, especially when gauging AI expertise. Workera's "State of Skills Intelligence Report" found that 69% of L&D leaders struggle with measuring AI due to a lack of verified skills intelligence.

Sullivan's background in high-stakes assessments, combined with her technical expertise from Codility, enhances Workera's ability to design robust AI skill evaluations. Her experience developing assessments for critical government roles translates directly to evaluating the nuanced skills required for AI proficiency.

"Companies need to move beyond basic assessments and truly understand their workforce's AI capabilities," said Kian Katanforoosh, CEO of Workera. "We're establishing the new standard for AI skills intelligence, enabling companies to effortlessly track, measure, and develop the right AI competencies, ensuring they're prepared for the future."
