Built for a serious search

Three jobs, one workspace.

Everything a real job search needs — and nothing that wastes your time.

Qualify any listing

Paste a URL and we check if the role is real or a ghost — live ATS status, repost history, and cross-referenced hiring signals in seconds.

Build your package

Tailored resume, cover letter, and essays generated from your story bank — grounded in your real experience, never generic.

Track every role

A pipeline that knows the difference between 'waiting' and 'ghosted.' Move roles through stages and never lose the thread.
