The Atlas of US Work.

How to read this.

Every rectangle is one occupation. Its area is proportional to how many Americans hold that job — Software Developers (~1.9M) get a big tile, Boilermakers (~10K) get a tiny one. The color shifts based on whichever metric you've selected above.

The standard lenses come straight from BLS:

• Median pay — the official BLS annual median for the occupation
• 10-yr outlook — projected employment change by 2034
• Entry education — typical credential to enter the field
• AI exposure — 1–10 score derived from Felten, Raj & Seamans (2023), the Language Modeling AIOE measure published alongside Occupational Heterogeneity in Exposure to Generative AI. Peer-reviewed.

And the lenses that only Klepify can show, drawn from our live swarm corpus:

• Ghost rate — % of Klepify-tracked listings in this occupation that we've confirmed dead
• Klepify swarm pay — what listings actually pay (vs the BLS national median)
• Swarm volume — how many of these jobs our users have opened

Why this matters.

Two things, mostly. One: if you're job hunting and the BLS says your occupation has a "-12% outlook" while pay sits at the bottom 25%, that's information you deserve to have before you spend three weeks tailoring resumes. Two: when ghost-job density on this map outpaces actual employment growth, it's evidence that we're not in a "tight labor market" — we're in a job-listing market detached from real hiring.

Klepify is the only company that can build the Klepify-specific layers on this map. The BLS owns the official numbers; we own a swarm-corpus view of what the listings actually look like once they hit the major job boards.
