According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 4 million Americans quit their jobs in July 2021. Resignations have since remained abnormally high, with a record-breaking 10.9m jobs remaining open as of the last day of December 2021. With a new world of hybrid and remote work providing a vastly changed backdrop for employers, companies are faced with poor visibility on how to recruit, retain and optimize the employee experience for the highest performers in the market.

“Skyminyr was formed to do three things,” said Alex Bates, Founder and CEO of Skyminyr. “First, to deliver an unparalleled talent retention solution that enables companies to retain their highest performers, second to help recruit the best talent, and third to map out advanced relationship intelligence in the industry to help enterprises gain a massive competitive human capital advantage over their competitors.”

Skyminyr has spent three years in development mode with a leading team of data scientists to apply AI driven, predictive alogrythms to massive data sets of Human Capital correlated to organization’s success. The platform provides human capital insights to a company in comparison to its peers. It can serve as an early warning system for looming talent issues based on benchmarking. The platform also provides access to talent flow, allows companies to predict movements, monitor retention risk and increase employee engagement.
