Cobrainer digitizes employee profiles for companies and thus makes competencies transparent with its “Expertise Intelligence” software.
Cobrainer emerged from a university research project at the Technical University of Munich in 2013. The interdisciplinary development team combines concepts from the fields of machine learning, natural language processing, and image recognition and develops software solutions for expertise analysis, management, and visualization.
By processing large amounts of publicly available project data, the Cobrainer software "learns" specific correlations between expertise and creates a globally unique semantic expertise database. This database serves as the technical framework for the digital integration of talent and interdisciplinary teams, both within and across companies.
Cobrainer currently has 13 employees, has been profitable since October 2016, and counts various DAX corporations and medium-sized companies among its customers.
Cobrainer GmbH is a Munich-based data analytics company specialized in developing software for identifying and visualizing an organization's skills. The software thus enables companies to intelligently understand, manage and develop the skillset of their workforce. Cobrainer Talent was developed on the Azure platform and offers three complementary core functionalities: a) Automated, harmonized generation of employee skill profiles from existing internal data and social media profiles (LinkedIn/Xing) to provide real-time, skill-based transparency for internal job, project and learning opportunities. b) Automated identification of relevant internal candidates (= automated shortlist generation) for vacancies in internal recruiting (real enhancement of internal recruiting). c) Skill-based workforce analytics (eg identification of missing digital skills / alignment of current employee skill sets and strategic skill requirements). As a result, organizations can ensure business stability and growth in times of crisis by providing guidance and transparency to employees, recruiters, and talent managers. Cobrainer's skill intelligence platform is already in-use at industry-leading firms in various sectors offering a proven cost-saving, productivity, and employee retention impact.
