NextOrbit outplacement software
Outplacement support people can use to land their next role
Give each employee leaving your organisation a private NextOrbit workspace, funded with Kinetokens for AI resume tailoring, cover letters, interview prep and application tracking. You manage invitations and budget. They keep control of their search.
Built by Kinetos Labs in Melbourne, from firsthand experience of redundancy.
- Private by design
- You never see anyone's documents or applications.
- Funded by you
- Each invite comes with Kinetokens for AI tools.
- Theirs to keep
- The workspace and unused Kinetokens stay with them.
- Australian software
- Built by Kinetos Labs in Melbourne.
Why it matters
Advice helps. Applications are the work.
After a redundancy, people are suddenly managing job ads, tailored resumes, cover letters, recruiter calls, interviews and follow-ups, often while dealing with the shock of the change. Workshops and guidance are valuable, but what makes the difference day to day is having a system that turns that guidance into strong, organised applications.
NextOrbit started when its founder was made redundant after more than 15 years in healthcare and clinical trials and found the search itself hard to manage. It is built for exactly that moment.

How it works
From redundancy to a working job search
Kinetos Labs sets up your organisation with you. From then on, your team runs invitations and budget from the NextOrbit manager portal.
02
Fund your Kinetoken pool
Buy Kinetoken packs into one organisation pool that funds every invite.
03
Invite each person
Send an invite by email with a Kinetoken allocation. The invite screen shows what that allocation covers.
04
They run their search
Each person gets a private workspace. When the support period ends, it becomes fully theirs.
What each person gets
The full NextOrbit workspace, not a cut-down version
Participants use the same product individual job seekers use, with Kinetokens from your organisation to power the AI tools.
AI resume tailoring
Match each job description to their real experience and see the gaps before applying.
AI cover letters
Role-specific letters drafted from their own achievements, with unsupported claims removed.
ATS-style review
Check alignment with the job description and document quality before submitting.
Interview preparation
Likely questions for each role, matched STAR stories, and coaching on draft answers.
Application tracking
A visual pipeline with follow-ups, contacts and interview rounds for every role.
Save jobs anywhere
Capture roles from Seek and Indeed with the browser extension, or share them from a phone.
Privacy
Support, not surveillance
People who have just lost their job should not feel watched by their former employer. NextOrbit separates what your organisation manages from what each person owns.
| Your managers can see | Only the participant can see |
|---|---|
| Who has been invited, and whether each invite is pending or accepted. | Their resumes and tailored versions. |
| The Kinetokens allocated to each person. | Their cover letters and other documents. |
| The organisation's Kinetoken pool and purchase history. | The jobs they save and apply for. |
| Invite and billing records, exportable as CSV. | How and when they use their Kinetokens. |
For HR and program leads
Clear controls for the people running the program
The manager portal keeps invitations, budget and records in one place, so the program is simple to run and easy to account for.
Invitations
Invite by email, track pending and accepted invites, and resend or cancel pending ones.
Kinetoken allocations
Set a default allocation, choose Standard or larger presets, or enter a custom amount for each invite.
One organisation pool
See available and reserved Kinetokens, buy more packs, and allocate extra Kinetokens to someone who needs them.
Records and exports
Keep purchase history and export invite and billing records as CSV for reporting and reconciliation.
After the support period
A clean hand-over, not a cut-off
Support periods are agreed when we set up your organisation: 30 days by default for outplacement, with longer options for extended transitions. When the period ends, the person's link to your organisation ends too.
- Their workspace, documents and applications stay with them.
- Any Kinetokens they have left are theirs to keep.
- They receive an email confirming the workspace is now fully their own.

Frequently asked questions
Outplacement software questions
What is outplacement software?
Outplacement software gives employees who are leaving an organisation tools to find their next role, paid for by the employer. NextOrbit gives each person a private job-search workspace with AI resume tailoring, cover letters, ATS-style review, interview preparation and application tracking.
Can our organisation see what participants do in NextOrbit?
No. Managers see invitations, their status, the Kinetokens allocated to each person, and billing records. They cannot see anyone's resumes, cover letters, job applications or how they use their Kinetokens.
What happens when the support period ends?
The person's connection to your organisation ends, and their NextOrbit workspace becomes fully their own. Any Kinetokens they have left stay with them, and they receive an email confirming the change.
How much does NextOrbit outplacement cost?
Organisations choose a plan and buy Kinetoken packs to fund invites. Plans are sized for different team sizes, and pricing is shown in the manager portal. Contact Kinetos Labs to set up your organisation and discuss the right plan.
Is NextOrbit only for redundancies?
No. The same approach supports voluntary departures, extended career transitions, graduate programs and university career services. Longer support periods are available for programs that need them.
