*ASK
Your AI-powered
Labor Market Intelligence Assistant
*ASK is a conversational AI experience in the Lightcast Analyst platform, serving users across HR, public sector, and education. Users can ask questions in natural language and get reliable, defensible answers linked to the underlying Analyst report, so they can explore the evidence themselves and deepen their analysis.
Meet *Ask
With *ASK, users can start with the workforce question they want to answer, rather than first determining which report, dataset, filter, or taxonomy to navigate. A user might ask, “What AI skills does a software developer need?” or “Where is demand for this role growing fastest?” and receive relevant insights from Lightcast data, with clear visibility into the underlying data. Responses link directly to the Analyst report it comes from, allowing users to explore the data, adjust their analysis, and build on what they've learned using the tools they already know.
This connection between conversational discovery and deeper analysis is central to *ASK's design. For both new and existing users of Analyst products, *ASK provides a more intuitive starting point for complex questions.
Whatever you need to understand about work, just *ASK.
