Direct employer evidence
Collect daily from company career sites instead of relying on delayed, duplicated, or incomplete downstream aggregator listings.
02 / Hiring intelligence
Daily hiring intelligence for investment research.
Measure changes in employer demand, role mix, sales capacity, product investment, and partner ecosystem demand using a purpose-built software-company classification system.
The SoftwareIQ difference
Direct-source hiring intelligence—not an aggregator feed.
SoftwareIQ observes covered companies at the source, then applies a classifier designed around the software market. That preserves fresher changes and the operating detail generic job feeds often miss.
Fresh, continuity-aware history
Capture source changes on the day they are observed and establish a new comparison baseline when needed, preventing technical changes from appearing as false hiring demand.
Reproducible classification
Versioned taxonomy and classifier context support consistent historical analysis and explicit model pinning.
Event detection · monday.com
How quickly can a material change in hiring demand be identified?
Build an event monitor from daily source observations.
Daily active inventory, additions, and closures make abrupt changes visible between conventional reporting periods. The monday.com exhibit shows how a material workforce action appears in the direct-source history on the day it is observed.
SoftwareIQ preserves collection and continuity context so a true operating change can be separated from a source migration or unavailable board. The signal measures advertised demand, not completed hiring or employee count.
Research outputEvent monitoring, hiring-inflection screens, and timely company-research updates.

Investment allocation · Okta
Which product and commercial priorities sit beneath broad hiring functions?
Resolve hiring demand to company-specific initiatives.
Company-specific classification can turn a broad Product & Engineering or Sales observation into a time series of identifiable investments. The Okta exhibit follows platform, identity, AI, and go-to-market priorities using a maintained allocation taxonomy.
SoftwareIQ combines a common role model with company-specific product and GTM definitions, retaining classifier and taxonomy versions through history. This supports cross-company comparison and detailed thesis monitoring from the same underlying records.
Research outputProduct-investment maps, GTM allocation analysis, and company-specific thesis monitoring.

Sales-capacity monitoring · Atlassian
Is commercial capacity changing between reported quarters?
Track quota-bearing demand as an operating input.
A classified sales history can show when a company is changing its advertised go-to-market capacity and which customer segments are affected. The Atlassian exhibit isolates account executives and their supported segments around a quarterly revenue beat.
SoftwareIQ identifies AEs within the broader Sales function instead of treating every sales title as quota-bearing. Paired with reported fundamentals, the series offers a measurable forward input without equating an open role with a completed hire.
Research outputSales-capacity assumptions, earnings preparation, and operating-model calibration.

Private-company scaling · AI leaders
How quickly is a private company scaling, and where is it investing?
Compare hiring velocity with organizational mix.
Direct-source hiring can provide a common operating lens when private companies disclose limited financial information. The AI-company exhibit compares changes in advertised demand with the current share directed toward Sales and Customer Success.
SoftwareIQ normalizes different title conventions into one functional taxonomy, making classified roles—not keyword counts—the analytical unit. This separates overall expansion from evidence of commercial maturation.
Research outputPrivate-company diligence, portfolio monitoring, and GTM-maturity assessment.

Industry trend comparison · Workflow software
Is a hiring change company-specific or shared across a market?
Evaluate company movement inside a maintained peer cohort.
Consistent short- and long-horizon changes make company hiring demand comparable with the direction of its broader market. The Workflow & Work Management exhibit applies one-, four-, thirteen-, twenty-six-, and fifty-two-week lookbacks to companies with a complete annual history.
SoftwareIQ fixes the category and full-history cohort before ranking changes. That separates recent movement from the longer-cycle direction without allowing missing observations to distort the peer comparison.
Research outputIndustry monitoring, peer-relative screens, and category-level demand analysis.

Partner-ecosystem capacity · Workday
Where is third-party implementation capacity being advertised?
Extend vendor research into systems-integrator hiring.
Partner hiring adds an external view of implementation and delivery capacity that is not visible in a software vendor's own job board. The Workday exhibit assembles relevant roles across global systems integrators and groups the history into three major regions.
SoftwareIQ's purpose-built SI tracker retains the integrator, software evidence, geography, and delivery-role context behind each observation. This turns fragmented global postings into a maintained ecosystem signal.
Research outputRegional partner-capacity monitoring, ecosystem diligence, and implementation-demand tracking.
