Career Path is an AI Career management ecosystem that brings employees, managers, and Human Resources teams together around a single artificial intelligence engine. Fully integrated with all ERP systems, it is data-driven, objective, continuously learning, and self-improving.
Why Is Traditional Career Management No Longer Sufficient?
Traditional career management systems have followed similar approaches for many years. Static and manually defined competency models, performance evaluations conducted only once a year, and succession plans managed primarily through Excel form the foundation of this approach. Promotion and development decisions are often influenced by personal bias. As a result, employees are not provided with clear and transparent career paths, and intuitive decisions take precedence over real-time data.
For modern organizations, this approach is no longer sustainable. Today’s companies must not only attract talent, but also retain it, develop it, and position it effectively within the organization. Accurately leveraging internal talent pools, measuring performance in real time, and preparing future leaders starting today have become fundamental requirements of next-generation career management.
Career Path emerged as a natural response to this need.
What Is Career Path? (AI-Driven Career Management)
Career Path is a next-generation AI Career platform developed by Ono that, for the first time globally, approaches career management as a fully artificial intelligence-driven discipline.
Our platform:
- Connects to all ERP systems used by the company
- Consolidates performance, competency, training, role, and organizational data into a single data pool
- Performs AI-powered 360-degree competency analysis
- Provides employees with personalized career guidance
- Delivers strategic decision support for managers and HR teams
The core philosophy of AI Career is clear:
“Career management is not guesswork; it is a data-driven science.”
Full Integration with All ERP Systems
One of Career Path’s strongest differentiators is its ERP-agnostic architecture. Thanks to Ono’s API-first and microservices-based infrastructure, the platform can integrate with more than 70 global and local systems, including SAP, Workday, SuccessFactors, Oracle, Logo, Humanist, Microsoft Dynamics, and custom-developed ERP solutions.
Through these integrations, organizational charts, job definitions, performance scores, training histories, competency assessments, and KPI and OKR data are analyzed in real time. As a result, career management is freed from fragmented systems and transformed into a holistic and up-to-date structure.
360-Degree Competency Measurement: AI-Powered Objective Evaluation
Competency lies at the heart of career management. However, in traditional systems, competency assessment is often subjective. Career Path fundamentally changes this approach.
Artificial intelligence evaluates competencies through multidimensional analysis, drawing from performance results, manager feedback, peer evaluations, training participation and success data, project-based output analyses, and role requirements. This results in competency profiles that are fairer, more transparent, measurable, and reliable. Competency assessment is no longer based on opinion, but on data.
AI-Powered Career Pathways
A single, standardized career path cannot meet the needs of every employee. Career Path analyzes employees’ competency sets, performance trends, interests, learning speed, and organizational needs to create dynamic career pathways. These pathways present data-driven alternatives such as vertical progression (promotion), lateral movement (role changes), specialist tracks, and leadership tracks.
This approach enables employees to clearly identify the career paths that best align with both their individual potential and organizational objectives.
Talent Matrix: Discovering the Internal Talent Pool
Career Path makes hidden potential within the organization visible. Through the talent matrix, it becomes possible to instantly identify which employees are strong in specific competencies, who shows potential for certain roles, and who is ready for critical positions. At the same time, areas requiring development are clearly identified.
This structure transforms internal mobility and succession planning from manual lists into strategic, data-driven processes.
Automated Succession Planning
Career Path removes succession planning from manual and static workflows. Artificial intelligence identifies critical roles, calculates risk scores for these positions, ranks suitable successors, and measures readiness levels. This enables organizations to take a proactive approach to unexpected departures rather than reacting after the fact.
AI-Driven Interpretation of Performance Data
Career Path does not merely store performance scores; it interprets them. Artificial intelligence analyzes performance trends, detects improvements and declines at an early stage, provides development recommendations, and evaluates organizational performance holistically. As a result, performance management becomes predictive rather than retrospective.
Training and Development Plans: Personalized and AI-Driven
Career Path automatically identifies competency gaps for each employee and determines corresponding training needs. AI-powered development plans are created, and the learning journey is tracked end to end. This transforms training and development processes from standardized programs into fully personalized experiences.
