About TaskExposed

Workers deserve honest data
about what AI is changing.

TaskExposed maps AI exposure at the task level — not the job title level. Because the question isn't “will AI replace accountants?” — it's “which of the twelve things an accountant does every day is AI already doing?”

What we believe
01
Task-level honesty

Occupation-level averages hide the truth. A lawyer who spends 80 % of their time on document review faces a different future than one who spends 80 % in court. We go one level deeper.

02
No doom, no hype

We refuse to use fear or false reassurance. Our scores are calibrated estimates with explicit confidence intervals — not marketing copy dressed up as data.

03
Open methodology

Every formula, threshold, and weighting decision is documented in the Methodology page. If you disagree with our approach, we want to hear why.

04
Worker-first framing

We build for the person trying to figure out their next career move — not for the executive trying to justify headcount reductions.

Why we built this

The headlines were useless.

Every week brought a new study: “47 % of jobs at risk.” “AI will replace coders by 2025.” “Your profession is safe.” None of it helped real people make real decisions about their careers.

The underlying academic work — O*NET task mappings, GPT capability rubrics, BLS projections — was solid. But it lived in PDFs and paywalled journals, not in a form a nurse or paralegal could actually use.

TaskExposed is the interface layer between that research and the 150 million workers in the US trying to understand what the next five years look like.

The team

Small team. Big dataset.

Research Team
Data Science & Methodology

Built the exposure scoring model, sourced and cleaned O*NET task data, and calibrated capability scores against frontier model benchmarks.

Product Team
Design & Engineering

Designed the visual language, built the web application, and obsessed over how to communicate probabilistic data without causing panic or complacency.

Advisory Board
Labour Economics & AI Policy

Economists and AI policy researchers who pressure-test our methodology and keep us honest about what the data can and cannot say.

Questions about the methodology?

We publish our scoring model openly and welcome scrutiny. If you're a researcher, journalist, or policy maker working on AI labour impact, we'd love to talk.
