/ Institutional Licensing

License the system,
not just the platform.

Forkaia's institutional licensing program makes the Forkaia Score™, the Forkaia Credential™ framework, and the Parallel Career Education™ curriculum available to universities, state workforce agencies, employers, and education foundations. Three tiers — from individual researcher access to enterprise-wide white-label rights.

/ IP Asset 01

Forkaia Score™

The FICO-of-work-readiness. A 300–850 scoring rubric for employability, calibrated against documented work outcomes. Methodology paper + scoring rubric + reference implementation.

/ IP Asset 02

Forkaia Credential™

Verified work-credential issuance framework. Cryptographic verification protocol, credential schema, public-verifier infrastructure spec. The credential layer for parallel career education.

/ IP Asset 03

Parallel Career Education™

The category framework. Curriculum scaffolding, outcomes taxonomy, integration playbook for universities deploying PCE inside an existing career-services infrastructure.

State of Student Career Research

Annual research report + underlying dataset. Used by university career centers, foundations, and federal workforce agencies for institutional outcomes benchmarking.

/ 01 / Pricing

Three tiers.

The same three-tier structure used across the Forkaia portfolio for institutional access — calibrated to use case rather than just user count. From individual-researcher subscription to multi-system enterprise license with white-label rights.
