Built by attorneys, who think like you
Charted was built by a team of senior patent and trade mark attorneys, who understand the profession inside and out, with the specialist support of a seasoned career coach. It's the personalised platform and suite of development resources they wish had been available to them as they were planning and navigating their own careers.
The founders of Charted are professionals who once stood in your shoes. Having spoken with many attorneys over the years about a common lack of clarity and certainty about potential career progression options, because those options were either hidden or poorly understood, they realised that not every organisation provides attorneys with the career information, progression resources and support they really want — and that existing career planning tools are oversimplified and non-sector-specific. They built this platform to meet a long-felt need for better career transparency and support.
How it works
With its structured diagnostic assessment, tailored career pathways, interactive guidance and ongoing development resources, Charted is purposefully designed to help turn uncertainty into clear, actionable progress.
Human-first logic
Created by and for smart patent and trade mark attorneys, Charted is carefully designed, tested and built using human-first design and decision logic, enriched by AI capabilities.
Role of AI
We use AI not to replace human insight, but to enhance it. Harnessing the capabilities of AI enables Charted to offer personalised insights and development actions, and allows every attorney to access a career planning assistant that understands the realities of careers in our profession.
How we secure your data
We appreciate that data privacy and confidentiality are paramount. So your data — including your assessment answers — is completely private, protected on secure servers and safeguarded to certified standards on UK-hosted infrastructure. No personal data is used to train the Charted model.
