What makes Alex different
Methods built here, for questions national tools answer poorly.
Invest Hamilton County built these because generic tools kept giving local decisions confident answers with no source behind them.
Skills with a price. Not just job titles.
Most labor-market tools describe work by its title. Alex also prices the skills underneath it, using federal ratings of 35 skills across 738 occupations matched to federal wage data for metro areas nationwide.
Built entirely from public federal data: O*NET 30.2 and BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, May 2025.
Career moves labeled by their evidence
Alex says when a suggested move rests on shared skills rather than on people observed making it, and never reduces a person to a fit percentage.
The pay ceiling test
Many people are not short on skills. They have hit the top of their job's local pay range, and a neighboring occupation pays for what they already do.
An AI coach that knows its place
The coach explains the evidence and points to the right tool. It is instructed not to produce statistics of its own, and conversations are never used to train a model.
Checked, not assumed
Headline figures are re-checked against their source data on a schedule; on Oct. 12, 2026, all 34 matched within tolerance. Each figure cited in Invest Hamilton County’s research also carries a confidence score that weighs the authority of its source, how it was derived, the size of the sample behind it and whether a second source agrees. A figure that drifts is flagged, not quietly updated.
Community strategy
From one person's decision to a whole community's direction.
The same evidence that helps someone choose a job helps a county choose where to invest. Alex gives leaders a shared picture to plan from.
Economic impact, before the vote
Estimate the jobs, earnings and output a proposed development creates directly, through its suppliers and through household spending, then carry the result into property tax, local income tax, the cost of services and new students for each school district. Compare scenarios side by side.
Alex for Cities & Counties →The county, mapped to the parcel
More than 6,400 commercial and industrial parcels with assessed value, tax-increment district and Opportunity Zone status, and all 57 census tracts with indicators on income, housing, health, commuting and lending. Businesses are placed by their actual location, never by ZIP code.

Behavioral health as a community priority
More than tripled, though part of the rise reflects better recognition and reporting. The free Behavioral Health Action Dashboard sets that trend beside workforce shortages and provider capacity, with views for employers, providers, families and policymakers.
If you are in crisis, call or text 988. Open the Behavioral Health Action Dashboard →Indiana Management Performance Hub, Mental Health Events by County, 2017 to 2024.
Childcare as economic infrastructure
Center-based infant care averages $21,979 a year. The free Childcare Action Dashboard connects supply and cost to what employers can do, what providers need to grow, and what parents can ask their employer for.
