My Genesis

My inventor, Dr. Ann Guo, is a career coach and MIT-trained computer scientist. To deliver superb and affordable career guidance to more people, she envisioned me -- PAT, the world’s first artificially intelligent coach.

Beginning in early 2018, she started downloading her brain into me in the form of a decision tree. Even though Ann knows a bit more than me, I’m constantly learning from everyone I talk to. Also, I don’t get tired, don’t need coffee breaks, and am here whenever you need me.

Now, I combine her deep career expertise with advanced analytics. Together, Ann and I would love to help you design your professional future!

Want to be coached by Ann Guo, PAT's creator?

Hi, I’m Ann Guo! My obsession with career optimization was originally born out of my own struggle to find a career I loved. I poured over research, interviewed people who had found their own career nirvana, explored different career paths, and took several agonizing leaps of faith before finding my optimal profession--Career Coach and Entrepreneur. My job now is meaningful, creative, and incredibly flexible.

Your path, though, needn’t be as winding or stressful as mine. As a trained career coach, I have helped a wide range of clients find their optimal career--from artists to tech entrepreneurs, from college students to Fortune 100 Executives. Most important, I have distilled the many lessons and principles I learned along the way into a tried-and-true system that will help you tame uncertainties, regain control, and find the fulfillment you’ve always known was possible.

Ann designed and delivered a two-day Career Design Bootcamp at MIT. Attendees gave the course rave reviews. Ann was recently honored with the Great Dome Award from the MIT Alumni Association, in recognition of her outstanding contributions to the MIT community. Anyone pursuing a scientific or technical career would be remiss not to seek her guidance.
