Frequently asked

Is this just for engineers?
Not at all. Sherpa works for any individual contributor with a career ladder — engineers, designers, PMs, data scientists, marketers, operations, and more. If your company has levels and expectations, Sherpa maps your work to them.
How is this different from a journal?
A journal stores your notes. Sherpa understands them. It uses AI to analyze your entries, map them to career competencies, identify gaps, and help you build an evidence-based case for promotion — automatically.
Will my manager see my data?
No. Sherpa is built for you, not HR or your manager. Your data is private by default. You choose what to share and when — like when you export a self-review.
How much time does it take?
About 30 seconds a day. Just write (or speak) what you did in plain language. Sherpa handles the analysis, categorization, and career mapping in the background.
What if my company doesn't have a career framework?
You can create your own in Sherpa. Define the pillars and expectations that matter for your role, and Sherpa will map your work against them. Many people use industry-standard frameworks as a starting point.
