5 May 2025 – Career Path Enhancements: AI-Powered Role Comparison Summaries

We’ve taken role comparison in Career Paths to the next level! AI-powered Role Comparison Summaries are now generally available in Develop. Building on our earlier release of side-by-side role comparisons, this new feature adds a smart summary section that highlights the key similarities and differences between roles—instantly.

Using generative AI, these summaries make it easier to understand how roles relate to each other, helping employees and managers have more informed conversations about promotions, lateral moves, or career transitions.

It’s a powerful, time-saving way to support meaningful career development across your organization. Learn more.


29 April 2025 - Development Goal Actions Are Now Live in GA!

We’ve rolled out an upgrade to Development Goals: actionable checklists are here!
Instead of broad goals like “Mastering Excel,” you can now break things down into specific, trackable Actions – making your development journey clearer and more achievable.

What You Can Do Now:

  • Add multiple, specific actions to each development goal

  • Track progress with simple checkboxes

  • Show real progress with completed actions

  • Follow a clearer, more structured path to growth

All new development goals will use Actions by default. Existing goals will still show Key Results – no changes needed on your end. This update works across both the Develop Module and Goals UI – the user interface will automatically show the right format based on your goal type. Check out the guide to creating and aligning goals to learn more.


21 Jan 2025 - Career Paths Enhancements: New Role Comparison and Usability Improvements

We’re excited to announce usability improvements to Career Paths, including a new full-page role view and a side-by-side role comparison feature! These updates make it easier for employees to understand role expectations and compare them directly, helping with career decisions like promotions, lateral moves, or transitioning to new areas. We’ve redesigned the role layout for better readability and streamlined the comparison process based on user feedback. Plus, stay tuned for an AI-generated summary of key role differences coming soon!

8 Jan 2025 - Export Development Plan Raw Data

You can now export a CSV file of raw data from employees' most recent development plans. The export includes non-confidential information, such as goals, plan objectives, and other structured and unstructured data.

This feature helps you:

  • Integrate data: Combine development planning data with performance outcomes or employee demographics for deeper insights.

  • Create custom reports: Build tailored reports and visualizations to answer specific questions beyond standard reporting.

  • Analyze trends: Use AI tools to identify patterns in free-text data, such as goals and growth areas.
