Trust and security
Every number traceable. Every exclusion explained.
MapX shows its working, so your team and your stakeholders can check every answer before they rely on it.
Explainable
Evidence for every judgement
Each leader’s fit is shown criterion by criterion, with the evidence from their career. Nothing is a black-box score.
Every inclusion shows which parts of the brief a leader meets, and where the evidence comes from.
Every exclusion carries its reason, so you can challenge it or bring someone back in.
Every report can be traced back to the leaders and companies behind each number.
Structured
Built on classification, not guesswork
General AI reasons well but guesses about careers. Large language models are probabilistic, so they cannot classify 40 million job titles the same way every time.
MapX gives AI structure: 2m+ companies, 16 functions, 420 specialisms and 7 seniority levels, every one classified the same way and read in 11 languages. In a blind test against a human-expert benchmark of 4,000 profiles, a frontier LLM on its own classified job titles with 62.5% accuracy. MapX’s hybrid of its own models and LLMs reached 82.5%.
Responsible AI
AI that analyses. People who decide.
MapX uses AI for technical analysis: reading careers, classifying them and matching the evidence to your brief. It is never used to make subjective judgements about a person. These are the principles behind every search.
-

People decide
AI is never asked to make subjective judgements about a person or their suitability. It does the technical analysis: classifying careers and matching evidence to your brief. Your team reviews each step and makes every decision.
-

Private by design
We never share personal information with AI models. Customer information is kept confidential and segmented by customer, under our AI policies.
-

Diversity, grounded in data
Expected diversity is estimated from first names only, using census data for the relevant geography around the world. Nothing is guessed, and nothing else about a person is used.
