File versioning software

Technology category · O*NET

File versioning software is a technology category in the O*NET database. Across U.S. occupations, 54 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 File versioning software

Showing 40 of 54 occupations.

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 40 occupations in occupations that use File versioning 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 Forest Fire Inspectors and Prevention Specialists Photographic Process Workers and Processing Machine Operators Career/Technical Education Teachers, Middle School Paralegals and Legal Assistants Coroners Electrical Engineers Geoscientists, Except Hydrologists and Geographers Computer and Information Research Scientists Information Security Analysts Automotive Engineers Bioinformatics Technicians Mathematicians AI task-overlap percentile → ↑ Median pay

How AI is used by roles that use File versioning software

A software category is not itself "being automated" — but we can look at the roles that report using File versioning 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. 48.1% of the 54 roles that use this category carry observed AI-usage data (26 roles).

Across those roles, 50.8% of AI conversations are people working with AI and 42.5% hand a task to AI , with an average autonomy of 3.92 / 5.

Collaboration pattern Share What it means
directive 37.3% AI does it; you give the instruction
task iteration 33.2% you and AI go back and forth
learning 13.7% you ask AI to explain or teach
feedback loop 5.2% AI does it, then adjusts from your feedback
validation 4.0% 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.

Occupation Works with AI Autonomy
Technical Writers 54.2% 4.0/5
Bioinformatics Scientists 44.5% 4.0/5
Computer Hardware Engineers 52.2% 4.0/5
Career/Technical Education Teachers, Middle School 47.5% 4.0/5
Mathematicians 44.6% 4.0/5
Robotics Engineers 42.0% 4.0/5
Biostatisticians 46.3% 3.0/5
Molecular and Cellular Biologists 57.2% 3.8/5
Management Analysts 62.4% 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 File versioning 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 File versioning software matters most across the economy. Employment reach is the share of an industry's workers in occupations that significantly use File versioning 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 6.0% of workers are in occupations that significantly use File versioning software (measured across 66 industries).

Sectors with the most such workers

Sector Workers Employment reach
Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services 3,451,770 32.1%
Manufacturing 1,043,820 8.2%
Information 829,040 28.5%
Finance and Insurance 682,620 11.0%
Management of Companies and Enterprises 544,370 19.4%
Administrative and Support and Waste Management and Remediation Services 423,430 4.7%
Educational Services 361,800 2.7%
Wholesale Trade 338,860 5.6%
Construction 320,830 4.0%
Health Care and Social Assistance 247,950 1.1%
Transportation and Warehousing 99,840 1.4%
Other Services (except Public Administration) 86,560 2.0%

Industries where it is most concentrated

Industry Level Concentration Employment reach
Engineering Services National industry 8.27× 49.6%
Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services Sector 5.35× 32.1%
Information Sector 4.75× 28.5%
Testing Laboratories and Services National industry 3.35× 20.1%
Direct Health and Medical Insurance Carriers National industry 3.33× 20.0%
Management of Companies and Enterprises Sector 3.23× 19.4%
Research and Development in the Social Sciences and Humanities National industry 2.72× 16.3%
Fossil Fuel Electric Power Generation National industry 2.67× 16.0%
Nuclear Electric Power Generation National industry 2.32× 13.9%
Utilities Sector 2.27× 13.6%
Finance and Insurance Sector 1.83× 11.0%
Manufacturing Sector 1.37× 8.2%

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.
