The ApplyAI an AI based career guidance platform that I profiled on my Youtube channel (video below) is rebranding to CareerSpan.
Careerspan’s AI-powered platform serves as a career companion, addressing the critical need for personalized career guidance in an unpredictable job market. The company’s tools coach professionals to:
- Identify and articulate their unique strengths
- Transform skills into compelling – and authentic – narratives for interviews, applications and networking
- Optimize job searches and career advancement strategies
- Keep an active record of professional accomplishments and growth
“Our new name, Careerspan, reflects our mission to be a trusted ally throughout one’s entire professional journey,” said Vrijen Attawar, co-founder and CEO. “Just as individuals focus on prolonging their healthspan for a better quality of life, we believe in empowering professionals to proactively manage their careers with purpose.”
The two co-founders of the company, which raised $1M from angel investors in pre-seed funding earlier in 2024, are themselves experts in coaching and helping individuals with their professional brand-building.
Athlete Career Transition (ACT) Group Ltd, co-founded by former professional rugby players Andy and Steve Moore, has officially launched in the United States. ACT is dedicated to being the premier global support system for athletes transitioning from sports to successful careers in business, fostering an inclusive environment where both athletes and businesses can thrive.
“We are excited to introduce ACT to the U.S. market, providing athletes with unparalleled support as they navigate new career paths,” said Andy Moore, Director and Co-Founder of ACT. “Our soon-to-be-launched, innovative platform and commitment to athlete success will redefine how athletes transition into the business world.”
Over the past 14 years, ACT has facilitated successful career transitions for over 500 athletes, including renowned figures such as American, double gold medal winning, Olympic rower Meghan Musnicki, Olympic bronze medal winning fencer Nzingha Prescod, former NFL player Daniel Imatorbhebhe and former MLB player Garrett Giovannelli.
“ACT played a critical role in my shift from the competitive world of NFL to business. Their personalized guidance equipped me with the confidence and tools to succeed in this new chapter of my life,” shared Daniel Imatorbhebhe.
