SIGNAL
Method

How the signal is measured.

The instrument

SIGNAL reads your professional record, grounds it in trusted labour-market evidence, and returns a measured verdict. We publish the evidence. We never publish the weighting. The instrument is not for sale.

The process

Assessment → Evidence extraction → Professional signals → Six market dimensions → Classification → Verdict.

Two layers, six dimensions

The SPIF™ framework reads two layers. Observable Evidence — Market Scarcity, Market Influence, Market Need. Future Resilience — Market Growth, Market Adaptability, Market Longevity.

The outputs

A Classification (S1–S6), a Signal Strength (0–100), a SIGNAL Risk™ reading (Low / Elevated / High), a Trajectory, and a Skill Half-Life™.

What SIGNAL measures — and what it does not

SIGNAL does not measure personal worth. It measures market signal.

SIGNAL does not make deterministic predictions about a person’s future. It produces a market reading based on professional evidence, labor-market signals, AI exposure, demand patterns and confidence levels.

AI exposure

AI exposure is one risk layer. It does not determine the full reading. SIGNAL separates Signal Strength from SIGNAL Risk™ — a professional record can be strong and still carry risk.

Grounding

Where possible, dimensions are grounded in live labour-market data and official occupation outlooks, so the score reflects what the market is doing now — not memory. Sources are cited as evidence; the way they combine is the standard, and stays sealed.

Versioning

Every report states the version it was assessed under (SIGNAL Standard™ v1.0). As the market and our evidence base evolve, the Standard is versioned — a changing score can mean the market moved, not that you did.
