We’ve designed Actvo for people who might not otherwise get access to leadership support, coaching or mentoring.
Our pricing offers a lower cost alternative to traditional people-led development methods, to enable greater reach within organisations and democratise access to personalised career development & learning resources.
Your people contract directly with Actvo and hold the data in their personal name. You sponsor their account to support their career confidence, growth and capability building.
Offer select teams access to an Actvo space that is unique and private for your organisation. Our platform is dynamically designed to deploy our services as an extension of your organisational culture - accelerating your L&D efforts.
We partner with organisations who see opportunity to support people differently. Our platform can be used for a variety of use-cases including Leadership Development, Team based Training & Development Needs, Outplacement, and Graduate Career Planning. We can adapt to suit your needs.
We are one of the world’s first career co-pilots, designed to unlock your highest human potential and craft a career plan that's based on data led insights vs instinct. Become one of our first 500 brand ambassadors and benefit from our evolving technology.

We’re looking for our champions! We are a new and fast growing business and want to give access to Actvo to people who are committed to growing their career and creating personal change in their life. We offer reduced pricing in exchange for feedback through our online forum.
Designed for those who want to start planning a personal career growth plan, tackle challenges at work, and craft their future pathway. Ideal for those leaving organisations who have had sponsored access to Actvo to maintain their data and plans.
Users benefit from having available to them 24/7 an online, personal, career guide to support them with both solving everyday challenges, as well as helping them grow new skills and craft career pathways. This type of technology is ideally suited for introverts, neuro-divergent people or those that prefer to interact with technology vs humans on solving complex personal problems in a private and process-driven way
We keep all private & personal data secure and meet global data protection standards of the highest order. No personal data shared on the platform is shared with any other organisation. All reporting is anonymised and permissioned through our T&C's.

Actvo is an extension of Start Nows proprietary career planning system, pioneered in 2018 by Melissa Jenner. Trained in Human Centred Design & Design your Life at Stanford D-School Melissa designed a methodology for enabling people to self-direct their careers and learn new skills based on the method of “Disover, Design, Act”. This method has since been producticsed through her world-leading masterclass detailing 18 steps to growth, used by 1000s of people world-wide. The methodology has also been taught at AUT and AcademyEX to a range of students, and as an outplacement & career pivoting methodology for large corporations in NZ and offshore.
