Gigsup is North America's first career intelligence platform for students. Built in Vancouver, Canada, Gigsup gives every student a living career profile that discovers who they are, matches them to careers that fit, and helps them achieve it. Unlike traditional career tools that rely on aptitude quizzes alone, Gigsup solves mismatch by matching on the whole person: values, interests, skills, identity, lifestyle preferences, and regional economic data. The matching engine is patent-pending and built on peer-reviewed instruments, and we are working with a BC post-secondary to keep improving our algorithms. Each career recommendation includes real wages in the student's region, where jobs actually exist, education pathways, and day-in-the-life videos. Gigi, the platform's AI guide, turns a chosen career goal into a personalized plan: course selection, admissions strategies, scholarships, mentors, skills-gap analysis, and interview practice for university, college, and the skilled trades. Schools use Gigsup to meet provincial career-planning mandates with the counsellor in the loop. Students keep their profile for life.
