We are building dabbL (https://www.go-dabbl.ai) to help student and counselors optimize college and career planning using AI. Available as mobile and web app, and completely free at the moment, we would be grateful for any feedback. Thank you!

National student clearinghouse is exceptional for tracking post secondary students as well

I’d make sure to check out YouScience. They are the only app/system that uses aptitudes to guide students to best fit careers.

We are looking hard at SchoolLinks

I like what I've seen from College Vine.

I met them at IEI last year. Those are some smart people solving interesting problems.

Discovery Education ‘Career Connect.’ It is FREE but the company updates it weekly - I find it super relevant. I will link it, but you can find it on their general website without having to log in or share your data. Career Connect

I’d add Intersect by PowerSchool and Appily (formerly Cappex)

You made a good list! You might also want to check out PathwayU, CareerOneStop, or YouScience. They focus on job exploration, tests, and making sure that education paths are aligned. You might want to add these to your top ten!

I’d add Universily.com. They’re relatively new, but my daughter used them last year and had excellent results.
