New Level Work vs. Consiliari

Most comparisons in this category are sloppy because they pretend these tools compete head-to-head. They don’t. New Level Work is built primarily for companies developing managers at scale; Consiliari AI is built primarily for individual professionals optimizing their career trajectory (with an enterprise option, but still product-shaped like a career OS).

This post uses only publicly available information from each website plus third-party sources (not vendor sales claims). Where details aren’t public, I call it out.

Quick snapshot

New Level Work (newlevelwork.com)

  • Core buyer: HR/L&D leaders buying leadership development for cohorts/managers
  • Delivery: ICF-certified human coaching (45-minute sessions) + training + platform + 360 assessment + an AI layer (Leora AI)
  • Pricing: quote-based (Request a Quote), with program structures (Sprint / Unlimited 6 / Unlimited 12)
  • Third-party footprint: listed on G2 with a rating and review volume

Consiliari AI (consiliari.ai)

  • Core user: an individual professional trying to get clarity, promotions, higher pay, and structured momentum
  • Delivery: always-on AI coaching + score + roadmap + market/salary intelligence (web-based)
  • Pricing: public (Free tier + $25/mo or $195/yr; enterprise exists)
  • Legal stance: AI coaching is not therapy/counseling and doesn’t create a formal coach-client relationship

1) Who each product is built for (this is the biggest difference)

New Level Work: “leadership development as a company program”

New Level Work positions itself around leadership development for managers: 1:1 leadership coaching, group coaching/training, manager assessments, and dashboards designed to show measurable progress.

Even its AI component (Leora AI) is described as something that can supplement human coaching and training or work standalone, using a large base of coaching sessions/content and a competency model.

Consiliari AI: “career management as a personal operating system”

Consiliari’s positioning is essentially: manage your career like an asset. The product flow is oriented around a personal profile (resume/LinkedIn), a short assessment that produces the Career Optimization Score, then continuous coaching + roadmaps + market intelligence.

Yes, there’s an enterprise tier mentioned, but the public experience is clearly designed first for the end user and their outcomes (promotion/pay/clarity).

Bottom line:

  • If you’re buying for teams/managers → New Level Work is structurally the right kind of product.
  • If you’re buying for yourself → Consiliari is structurally the right kind of product.

2) Delivery model: humans-first vs AI-first

New Level Work: human-led coaching (with AI support)

New Level Work explicitly states programs are delivered by ICF-certified coaches and includes structured program options with 45-minute sessions (Sprint with 6 total sessions; Unlimited 6 and Unlimited 12 with unlimited sessions).

It also includes a 360 assessment described as “scientifically validated” and designed to be low-burden for respondents (under 10 minutes).

Consiliari AI: continuous AI coaching + tools

Consiliari describes a 24/7 AI coach, dynamic roadmaps, and salary/market intelligence as core components, with onboarding via resume upload or LinkedIn connection.

It also includes formal terms emphasizing this is AI guidance and not therapy or a formal professional relationship.

Practical implication:

  • Human coaching tends to win when the constraint is behavior change, accountability, and complex interpersonal leadership contexts inside a company (performance reviews, conflict, etc.). New Level Work is designed for that environment.
  • AI-first tends to win when the constraint is frequency, cost, and “I need help right now” with structured planning, preparation, and iteration. Consiliari is designed for that.

3) Feature comparison (what’s actually on the page)

Assessments & measurement

New Level Work

  • 360 assessment positioned as lightweight and scientifically validated
  • “Measurable impact” language and a platform that measures manager behavior against best practices

Consiliari AI

  • Career Optimization Score described as a proprietary assessment across five pillars (Market Positioning, Compensation Optimization, Growth Trajectory, Strategic Positioning, Opportunity Readiness)
  • Public pages also state specific accuracy/performance claims (company-stated)

Coaching / guidance

New Level Work

  • Human coaching as the backbone; Leora AI as an AI-powered leadership development layer

Consiliari AI

  • AI career coaching conversations + roadmap + accountability positioning

Training programs

New Level Work

  • Group leadership training explicitly lists topics/programs like hybrid work, collaboration, strategic leadership, and workshops such as CliftonStrengths, DISC, and Women’s Leadership

Consiliari AI

  • More “individual career operating system” than cohort training; focuses on roadmaps, goals, salary/market intelligence

Salary & negotiation intelligence

This is where the products clearly diverge.

Consiliari AI puts salary/market intelligence in the core feature set (benchmarking, percentiles, negotiation guidance described in support pages).

New Level Work is leadership-development oriented; salary benchmarking/negotiation isn’t presented as a core product pillar on the pages reviewed.

4) Pricing transparency (what you can learn without a sales call)

New Level Work: structured programs, but pricing is not published

You can see the program types and structure (Sprint / Unlimited 6 / Unlimited 12; session duration; session count) but you still have to request a quote.

Consiliari AI: public pricing

Consiliari’s public materials list a free tier and paid plan pricing and also mention enterprise.

Procurement reality:
If you need a clean spreadsheet-friendly unit cost up front, Consiliari is easier. If you’re buying coaching as a people program, New Level Work’s quote-based model is normal.

5) Trust, privacy, and “encryption” claims (read the fine print)

Consiliari’s pricing page uses “end-to-end encryption” language.
Consiliari’s privacy policy, meanwhile, explicitly describes encryption in transit (TLS 1.3+) and at rest (AES-256) plus access controls and MFA.

Those are good safeguards — but “end-to-end encryption” has a specific meaning in security circles, and mixing AI processing with true end-to-end encrypted workflows is non-trivial. If privacy is a high-stakes requirement for you (executive job search, regulated industries), you should push for technical clarity on what “end-to-end” means in practice.

New Level Work’s public pages reviewed here are more about coaching/training; if you’re deploying to employees, you’ll still want their security documentation in procurement.

6) Third-party reality check (what people say outside the marketing site)

New Level Work: G2 reviews exist

G2 lists NewLevelWork with a visible rating and review count, plus an AI-generated review summary that highlights coaching quality and notes some complaints around integration/usability.

Consiliari AI: limited third-party review surface (so far)

In the public web results reviewed for this post, Consiliari’s product reputation is mostly represented by its own site (blog/support/legal pages), not a deep bench of independent review platforms. That’s not a moral judgment; it’s just the maturity signal you should factor in if you’re risk-sensitive.

Decision guide: which one should you pick?

Choose New Level Work if:

  • You’re an org that needs leadership development at scale (coaching + training + assessment + dashboards)
  • You want human coaches as the primary intervention
  • You value proven external review footprint (e.g., G2 presence)

Choose Consiliari AI if:

  • You’re an individual who wants continuous guidance, not monthly sessions
  • Your goals are explicitly career trajectory + compensation + negotiation prep
  • You want transparent self-serve pricing

Use both if:

  • Your company is building managers (New Level Work) and you personally want a career OS for your own advancement (Consiliari). These aren’t redundant products; they’re different layers.
