Clustering software

Technology category · O*NET

Clustering software is a technology category in the O*NET database. Across U.S. occupations, 24 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 86th 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.

Occupations that use Clustering software

Exposure quadrant: AI task-overlap percentile vs Median pay AI task-overlap (horizontal) versus median pay (vertical), each as a percentile across all scored occupations, for 24 occupations in occupations that use Clustering software. Overlap measures shared tasks with AI, not automation. Lower overlap · higher pay Higher overlap · higher pay Higher overlap · lower pay Lower overlap · lower pay Nuclear Technicians Sound Engineering Technicians Hydroelectric Production Managers Career/Technical Education Teachers, Middle School Computer and Information Research Scientists Remote Sensing Technicians Computer Network Support Specialists Network and Computer Systems Administrators Software Quality Assurance Analysts and Testers Computer Systems Engineers/Architects AI task-overlap percentile → ↑ Median pay

How AI is used by roles that use Clustering software

A software category is not itself "being automated" — but we can look at the roles that report using Clustering 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. 29.2% of the 24 roles that use this category carry observed AI-usage data (7 roles).

Across those roles, 52.3% of AI conversations are people working with AI and 38.6% hand a task to AI , with an average autonomy of 3.89 / 5.

Collaboration pattern Share What it means
directive 36.6% AI does it; you give the instruction
task iteration 30.1% you and AI go back and forth
learning 18.1% you ask AI to explain or teach
validation 4.1% you do it; AI checks your work
feedback loop 2.1% AI does it, then adjusts from your feedback

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.

Occupation Works with AI Autonomy
Career/Technical Education Teachers, Middle School 47.5% 4.0/5
Computer and Information Systems Managers 67.7% 4.0/5
Management Analysts 62.4% 4.0/5
Remote Sensing Technicians 41.4% 3.5/5
Physicists 30.5% 3.0/5
Sound Engineering Technicians 37.4% 4.0/5
Hydroelectric Production Managers

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 Clustering 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 Clustering software matters most across the economy. Employment reach is the share of an industry's workers in occupations that significantly use Clustering 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 4.2% of workers are in occupations that significantly use Clustering software (measured across 65 industries).

Sectors with the most such workers

Sector Workers Employment reach
Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services 2,280,030 21.2%
Information 760,900 26.2%
Finance and Insurance 614,670 9.9%
Manufacturing 536,990 4.2%
Management of Companies and Enterprises 450,630 16.0%
Educational Services 317,020 2.3%
Administrative and Support and Waste Management and Remediation Services 310,170 3.4%
Wholesale Trade 246,310 4.1%
Health Care and Social Assistance 188,920 0.8%
Transportation and Warehousing 67,090 0.9%
Other Services (except Public Administration) 53,510 1.2%
Retail Trade 48,680 0.3%

Industries where it is most concentrated

Industry Level Concentration Employment reach
Information Sector 6.24× 26.2%
Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services Sector 5.05× 21.2%
Direct Health and Medical Insurance Carriers National industry 4.1× 17.2%
Management of Companies and Enterprises Sector 3.81× 16.0%
Engineering Services National industry 2.48× 10.4%
Research and Development in the Social Sciences and Humanities National industry 2.45× 10.3%
Finance and Insurance Sector 2.36× 9.9%
Testing Laboratories and Services National industry 1.48× 6.2%
Utilities Sector 1.45× 6.1%
Temporary Help Services National industry 1.26× 5.3%
Insurance Agencies and Brokerages National industry 1.12× 4.7%
Manufacturing Sector 4.2%

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.
