Severnav
A worker-controlled transition navigator that extracts dates and options from employer documents, links each issue to current official sources, builds a jurisdiction-aware checklist, and routes high-risk questions to qualified professionals while preserving uncertainty and corrections.
The research confirms free severance benchmarking tools and a paid job-search service, but no reviewed worker-side workflow spanning severance, continued health coverage, unemployment, retirement accounts, restrictive covenants, and discrimination-charge navigation. No structural incumbent copying cost is evidenced.
Severnav cannot decide whether a severance agreement is fair, valid, discriminatory, enforceable, taxable, or advisable; calculate benefits authoritatively; determine unemployment eligibility; recommend a retirement rollover; evaluate a legal claim; or replace counsel, plan administrators, agencies, tax professionals, or financial advisers. Deadlines and rules depend on jurisdiction, age, employer, plan, worker status, agreement, notice, and facts.
The product should extract candidate facts with citations, ask the worker to confirm them, distinguish employer statements from official rules, show source and effective date, expose missing information, and provide neutral options plus professional and agency handoffs.
Recently separated workers and outplacement providers offering worker-controlled navigation without employer access to individual choices.
Sourced jurisdiction and topic templates scale after qualified review.
Layoff activity creates current acute demand, while named company events require verification.
Several adjacent tools support demand without a full workflow category.
A high-stress buyer, confirmed fragmented alternatives, worker-controlled documents, sourced deadlines, neutral options, and professional handoffs form a useful lightweight wedge.
Rules are high-stakes and change by jurisdiction and fact pattern, acquisition is episodic, trust is hard, the buyer remains broad, and free public information plus incumbents can substitute.
