See Live Market Profile for Any Role

Data from 500K+ job postings across 1,600+ institutions. Updated continuously.

Acadexis tracks every job description posted by 1,600+ institutions. Type a role, pick an institution type, and see where the market actually is — not where it was last November.

Stop Making Decisions on Old Data

Survey data is a rearview mirror. By the time it's published, the market has already moved — yet institutions are still making six-figure hiring decisions on months-old numbers.

Candidates compare against live postings. Boards expect defensible decisions. The pace has changed.
