The first personal AI career coach for early careers.

The end-to-end matching platform for vocational training and dual study programs.

Schools, talent, and companies are not yet connected. Mariposa brings together national and international talent with companies, data-driven and AI-powered, from career orientation and visa processes to employment contracts in Germany.

Talent exists. Opportunities exist.
The process is broken.
The Challenge

The missing bridge between talent and opportunity

Students make life-changing decisions without guidance.

Companies receive hundreds of irrelevant applications.

International talents are blocked by bureaucracy.

Students and companies fail to connect — because matching is too superficial and not precise enough.

One shared journey. One intelligent coach.

Students get a personal, intelligent coach that helps them discover their strengths and find the right career path. Companies get an intelligent recruiting solution that delivers best-fit candidates instead of mass applications. Precise matching brings both sides together, only when it truly fits.
