How It Works
Three products. One continuous journey for employers and workers.
Hire workers who are motivated to grow. Use government funding that already exists to train them. Track their development and give them a clear path to advance. Three steps that make each other stronger, built into one platform.

Hire. Grow. Fund. In that order, for a reason.

Retain & Grow
Hiring solves the immediate problem. Next solves the one that keeps coming back. Managers get tools to build real career paths, assign internal coaches, and track development so top performers stay and grow instead of walking out.
- Visible career paths from day one
- Manager-to-coach workflow built for the shop floor
- Employee progress tracking and milestone alerts
- Reduces turnover by giving workers a reason to stay

Documented training and career progression unlocks government workforce funding through SlateUp Fund.
Fund It
There is $20-30B in government workforce training funds available each year. Less than 1% of critical infrastructure employers claim any of it. Not because they don't qualify, but because the paperwork is impenetrable. SlateUp Fund's AI agent does it for them.
- AI agent scans federal and state programs for your eligibility
- Prepares and files grant applications automatically
- Training data from SlateUp Next becomes your documentation
- Funding flows back to pay for hiring and training costs
Closes the loop
Government funding reduces the cost of hiring and training, making it sustainable to do it all again at scale.
Why It's One Platform
Each product works on its own. Together, they change the equation.
You can use any part of SlateUp independently. But when hiring, career development, and workforce funding share the same platform, the results for employers and workers are meaningfully different.
Workers know where they're headed
When a worker gets hired through SlateUp, they don't just get a job. They get a visible path forward. Career milestones, coach relationships, and growth opportunities are all in one place from day one.
Employers spend less to keep great people
When workers stay longer and training gets partially funded by the government, the real cost of building your team drops. Less backfill, less wasted onboarding, more people who actually want to grow with you.
Training that doesn't have to come out of your budget
The same career development work your team is already doing becomes the documentation that qualifies you for government workforce grants. SlateUp Fund finds the programs and handles the paperwork.
