Access software

Technology category · O*NET

Access software is a technology category in the O*NET database. Across U.S. occupations, 42 report using software or tools in this category. The named products below are the specific examples O*NET records for those jobs. The occupations that use it sit, on average, at the 81st percentile of AI task-exposure ( high) — how much that work overlaps with what AI can do, not a sign the tool is being replaced. See where every tool category sits.

A Hot tag marks technologies O*NET sees frequently in employer job postings; In demand marks tools an occupation specifically requires.

Example software & tools

Ranked by how many occupations list each product. Each number is an occupation count — a job is counted once per product — so the product rows overlap and do not sum to the category total.

How AI is used by roles that use Access software

A software category is not itself "being automated" — but we can look at the roles that report using Access software and ask how those people actually use AI. This rolls the Anthropic Economic Index per-role signal up across those roles, weighted by how much observed AI activity each one has. 45.2% of the 42 roles that use this category carry observed AI-usage data (19 roles).

Across those roles, 50.2% of AI conversations are people working with AI and 40.8% hand a task to AI , with an average autonomy of 3.35 / 5.

Collaboration pattern Share What it means
directive 35.9% AI does it; you give the instruction
task iteration 29.8% you and AI go back and forth
learning 17.0% you ask AI to explain or teach
feedback loop 4.9% AI does it, then adjusts from your feedback
validation 3.5% you do it; AI checks your work

Roles behind this signal

The roles using this category that have the most AEI data. "Works with AI" is the role's share of conversations that augment rather than automate.

Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive 36.3% 3.0/5
Sales Representatives, Wholesale and Manufacturing, Technical and Scientific Products 51.1% 3.0/5
Operations Research Analysts 55.2% 4.0/5

Source: Anthropic Economic Index (2026-01-15-v4-plus-2025-03-27-v2) over a sample of Claude.ai Free and Pro conversations — not all AI tools and not the whole workforce. Roles list software categories in O*NET; this does not mean AI is used inside Access software, only that people in those roles use AI. Some conversations are left unclassified, so shares need not sum to 100.

Industries that concentrate this

Where Access software matters most across the economy. Employment reach is the share of an industry's workers in occupations that significantly use Access software (O*NET importance ≥ 3 of 5, or report using the tool category). Concentration compares that reach to the national average industry, so a value above 1× means the requirement is more pervasive here than across the economy as a whole.

Nationally, about 14.6% of workers are in occupations that significantly use Access software (measured across 67 industries).

Sectors with the most such workers

Sector Workers Employment reach
Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services 3,843,110 35.7%
Finance and Insurance 2,104,520 33.8%
Wholesale Trade 2,081,520 34.5%
Health Care and Social Assistance 1,791,770 7.8%
Manufacturing 1,619,520 12.7%
Administrative and Support and Waste Management and Remediation Services 1,534,260 17.0%
Retail Trade 1,487,410 9.5%
Information 1,212,220 41.7%
Management of Companies and Enterprises 1,093,010 38.9%
Educational Services 997,160 7.3%

Industries where it is most concentrated

Industry Level Concentration Employment reach
Direct Health and Medical Insurance Carriers National industry 3.53× 51.5%
Information Sector 2.86× 41.7%
Management of Companies and Enterprises Sector 2.66× 38.9%
Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services Sector 2.45× 35.7%
Wholesale Trade Sector 2.36× 34.5%
Finance and Insurance Sector 2.32× 33.8%
Insurance Agencies and Brokerages National industry 2.22× 32.4%
Research and Development in the Social Sciences and Humanities National industry 1.92× 28.0%
Farm and Garden Machinery and Equipment Merchant Wholesalers National industry 1.84× 26.8%
Labor Unions and Similar Labor Organizations National industry 1.7× 24.8%
Real Estate and Rental and Leasing Sector 1.61× 23.5%
Engineering Services National industry 1.55× 22.6%

Reach is a measure of how widespread a requirement is across an industry's workforce, not how intensively any individual uses it. Sector worker counts come from BLS OEWS employment; the significance threshold and tool use come from O*NET. Industries shown by concentration are filtered to a real worker base so a tiny specialty cannot top the list on rounding.
