Workforce development software
Interview coaching and workforce readiness training, WIOA and Workforce Pell compliance, participant attestation, and funder reporting on one platform, running against one verified enrollment record. Built for the small-org economics of WIOA and Workforce Pell, with data sovereignty designed in from day one.

What the platform covers
Every module reads and writes to the same enrollment record. Readiness data from coaching becomes the placement evidence in compliance. Attestation responses land on the same participant. The funder report writes itself from what already exists.
Rubric-scored practice interviews at scale. Every session produces the readiness data that becomes the placement-rate evidence at exit. 245 mock interviews in 9 weeks with zero added coaching staff (NPower case study).
AI mock interview platformThe six WIOA primary indicators and the Workforce Pell 70/70 thresholds, computed continuously from your enrollment records. Certification-ready exports. Intervention queue for off-track cohorts while there is still time.
Compliance moduleTokenized check-in links at 30, 60, 90 days and Q2 and Q4 post-exit. When a participant claims employment, the employer receives a 60-second verification. Every placement number carries participant and employer signatures.
Outcome verification modulePIRL-shaped CSVs and PDF board reports on demand from your enrollment record. Your reporting officer files without the pre-quarter reconciliation week.
Funder reportsCross-cohort comparison, longitudinal readiness deltas, funder views, and export. The executive director opens it Monday morning to see where the program stands against the numbers that determine next-year funding.

Sovereignty architectureBeyond the shipped modules
Capstone Workforce ships the platform. Capstone data services build the pipeline that feeds it. State MIS migration, state wage-record integration (SWIS, WRIS, and state longitudinal data systems like Alabama P20W), custom funder-format exports, and custom software builds against the same participant record and event stream the shipped modules run on.
For organizations that need more than the shipped modules cover. Deployed under Tier 3 self-hosted container or Tier 4 metadata-only connector so participant SSN data never leaves the buyer's environment.
Fits the 5–10% tech line of a $500K–$4M workforce grant under 20 CFR 683.205, depending on scope.

Who it is built for
Small workforce organizations that traditional enterprise software ignores. The 1.9 million nonprofits, 24,000 WIOA-funded programs, and the local boards, community colleges, reentry programs, veteran programs, and staffing partners that run against the same reporting standards without the same infrastructure budget.
Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth program operators reporting against the six primary indicators. The compliance module runs against your state MIS export; coaching drives the readiness numbers that feed placement.
See how it fitsLWDBs coordinating multiple providers across a designated area. Cross-provider reporting, cohort comparison, and the audit trail that survives a monitor review.
See how it fitsShort-term training programs preparing for Workforce Pell certification. The 70/70 compliance layer computes weekly against your Pell-eligible enrollments; the coaching layer builds placement readiness.
See how it fitsJustice-involved workforce programs where interview readiness is the difference between a hire and a no. Coaching + funder reporting on the same platform, sized for community-based org budgets.
See how it fitsMilitary-to-civilian translation baked into the resume audit; coaching scenarios tuned to how veterans actually interview. VetsInTech is a customer.
See how it fitsPre-placement readiness scoring as a client-facing differentiator. Rubric-scored sessions produce the evidence a client asks for before signing the contract.

Free, browser-based, no account. Enter your Pell enrollment count, exit count, completion count, and Q2 placement count. The tool returns your current rates, projected year-end figures, and how many additional placements you need to clear the 70/70 thresholds. Same math the platform runs weekly against real enrollment records for paying customers.

Enterprise workforce systems are built for state agencies and large multi-provider consortia at $100K-plus ACV. Capstone Workforce is built for the organizations underneath that price point, where the reporting requirements are the same but the budget is not.
A workforce nonprofit with a $2M annual budget cannot buy a $150K enterprise stack. Capstone Workforce sits at $8K to $17.5K ACV depending on module attach. The pricing is calibrated to the buyer, not built as a discount off a mid-market plan.
Most programs run coaching in one tool, compliance in a spreadsheet, and reporting in a manual reconciliation step the week before every submission. Capstone Workforce runs all three on one enrollment record — the readiness deltas from coaching become the placement-rate evidence in the compliance module, and both feed the funder-format export.
State agencies and boards evaluating workforce software stop the conversation as soon as data-residency questions surface. Capstone Workforce ships with four sovereignty tiers designed upfront (SaaS, GovCloud, buyer-hosted container, metadata-only connector) — so a state-agency conversation can move past sovereignty in the first meeting.
The founder writes the code, the copy, and the sales conversations. Twelve-plus commits to production in a typical week; two full product modules shipped in a recent 48-hour window (WIOA compliance calculation engine and participant + employer attestation). What ships in the platform maps directly to what buyers tell us they need.
Continuous threshold tracking. Certification-ready export. Cohort warning while there is still time to intervene.
One verified record, two funder reports, zero reconciliation. Participant + employer attestation flows.
PIRL-shaped CSVs and PDF board reports on demand from your enrollment record.
The coaching layer. Rubric-scored practice interviews at scale, feeding the readiness deltas that become placement evidence.
The reporting-first entry point for programs whose primary need is WIOA quarterly reporting infrastructure.
The board-side view. Cross-provider reporting, cohort comparison, audit trail that survives monitor review.
Six-dimension readiness assessment for programs preparing to submit under Workforce Pell.
