Learning Pool acquires Confirm to drive workforce performance with AI insights
Learning Pool, a leading provider of learning technology solutions, today announced the acquisition of Confirm, an AI-first people development platform.
The addition of Confirm removes the guesswork from workforce growth by putting data at the center of talent decisions. Grounded in Organizational Network Analysis (ONA), Confirm maps real working relationships to quantify employee influence and impact and provide leaders with clear visibility into top performers and quiet contributors alike.
This acquisition extends Learning Pool’s focus beyond training delivery to real-world performance measurement. Building on the recent integrations of WorkStep, WorkRamp and Elucidat, Learning Pool seeks to power a new era of workforce performance by unifying learning, engagement, and performance within a single intelligent Talent Flywheel — a powerful engine that turns workforce potential into measurable business results.
High-performing brands, including Substack, Foursquare, and Canada Goose, rely on Confirm to identify their most impactful people, ensuring workforce decisions directly fuel productivity and commercial success.
"The biggest challenge for any leader today is knowing exactly where workforce development will have the greatest impact,” said Benoit de la Tour, Chief Executive Officer of Learning Pool.
“By integrating Confirm into our ecosystem, we’re giving organizations the insight to identify top contributors, close skills gaps, and make data-driven decisions that directly drive productivity and business results. Confirm transforms talent insights into actionable intelligence, helping our customers turn workforce potential into measurable growth."
David Murray, Chief Executive Officer of Confirm, said: “Too many talent decisions are still based on perception, not evidence. Our platform gives leaders clear insight into who is driving real business impact. This includes the quiet contributors who rarely get the recognition they deserve, and the high-potential people whose development gaps aren't visible until it's too late.
“Combined with Learning Pool’s ecosystem, organizations can surface those signals early, fast-track their development, and ensure that workforce growth directly fuels organizational success.”
Confirm will operate as a specialized performance intelligence division within Learning Pool, accelerating its AI-driven roadmap while leveraging Learning Pool’s global resources. This expanded suite equips organizations to reduce ramp time, bridge skills gaps, and transform workforce development into a strategic business driver.
