Building the Infrastructure
for Opportunity
For 15 years, we've been solving one question: How do we create as much opportunity for the world as possible?
ELITE is the answer. We're building the Human Capital Operating System—the infrastructure that verifies what people can do, maps how careers advance, and connects talent to opportunity at global scale.
For professionals, that means portable, verified proof of capability. For organizations, it means access to proven talent and smarter hiring decisions. For platforms and systems, it means the data infrastructure layer they should plug into.
Make Capability Undeniable
The world is full of talented people who can't prove what they know. Companies need skilled professionals but have no way to verify real capability in real-time. And platforms lack the infrastructure layer connecting work, verification, and opportunity.
The result? $425B wasted annually on failed transformation. 45M professionals stuck with static credentials. Billions in lost productivity from poor talent matching.
ELITE changes that.
We track real work across the tools professionals use every day—turning activity into verified, portable credentials powered by ENGINE, our real-time verification intelligence layer.
Your skills become portable proof (Professionals)
Your capability becomes undeniable (Organizations)
Your platform gets the infrastructure it deserves (Systems & Platforms)
We're not just verifying skills. We're creating a new economic infrastructure where opportunity flows to those who've proven they can deliver.
From Employee Ownership to Global Infrastructure
ELITE's founder, Matthew, spent 15 years obsessed with one idea: distributed opportunity.
Inspired by employee-owned companies, DAOs, and decentralized networks, he saw a future where economic power wasn't hoarded—it was distributed to those who created value. But there was a problem: without verified proof of capability, opportunity couldn't scale fairly.
That insight led to ELITE.
What started as an exploration of how to democratize ownership became the Human Capital Operating System that democratizes access—to jobs, income, learning, and growth for professionals. By making skills verifiable and portable, we make opportunity programmable for organizations and platforms alike.
The Journey
The World Is Changing Faster Than We Can Prove It
By 2030, 40% of job-required skills will be transformed by AI and digitalization.
Companies are shifting to skills-based hiring—but they have no reliable way to verify real capability.
Meet ENGINE: The Intelligence Infrastructure
ENGINE is our real-time verification system that tracks work across HubSpot, Salesforce, GitHub, ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more—capturing not just hours, but how you work.
What makes ENGINE unique:
Behavioral verification across Creator, Implementation, and Community pillars
AI analyzes complexity, depth, and proficiency patterns
Continuous tracking turns work into portable, verified credentials
Unlike LinkedIn (self-reported) or certifications (static tests), ENGINE proves capability through real-time behavioral data
That data becomes verified credentials that professionals use to advance careers, that organizations use to make smarter hiring decisions, and that platforms integrate into their talent systems.
ELITE is a complete ecosystem—modules of the Human Capital OS:
ELITE Platform – Social network where verified professionals connect and grow
ENGINE – Real-time verification intelligence that tracks and scores your work
Groups – Communities where you learn, teach, and earn with verified peers
1:1 Exchange – Book 20-minute sessions with experts who've done the work
Marketplace – Offer services where verified skills unlock income
Launchpad – Raise capital and build with ecosystem support
Each layer works together—your work creates credentials, credentials unlock opportunities, opportunities compound your growth. Organizations tap the same data for hiring, and platforms integrate the same infrastructure for talent decisions.
The Protocol for Opportunity
ELITE isn't just a product. It's a movement to restore trust, create transparency, and reward real skill in a world shaped by technology.
Just as Stripe became the infrastructure for payments and Amazon became the infrastructure for commerce,

Every connection compounds your growth
This is the future of work: where careers, companies, and opportunities converge around evidence, impact, and expertise.
And it starts here.
