TalentGuard
TalentGuard helps HR and business leaders map workforce roles and capabilities, assess readiness, and identify skill gaps, then connect those insights to development, mobility, and succession. Its product scope includes WorkforceGPT, Intelligent Role Studio, Talent Assessment, Career Pathing, Development Planning, Succession Planning, and Talent Insights. WorkforceGPT generates job and skill profiles—including descriptions, skills, proficiency frameworks, and learning alignment—for expert review and approval. Assessment methods include employee self-assessment, manager verification, and behavioral-indicator assessment. Users can map competencies to roles, analyze competency and skill gaps, and build development plans. The platform lists integrations with Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, UKG, ADP, LMS and ATS systems, plus API, SFTP, and custom connector options. Job-role, skill, and competency data can be exported to Excel or CSV. Listed access controls include SSO/SCIM provisioning, role-based access, and audit logs. TalentGuard reports a completed SOC 2 examination. It is available through web and API access; pricing is listed from $579 per user per year.
