- What I built
- Product concept, the matching and explanation logic, and the writing system that keeps applications both tailored and truthful.

Background
The problem
Job hunting is a full-time job, and easy to get wrong. Generic applications get ignored, tailoring every one by hand is exhausting, and it is hard to know which roles are genuinely a good fit.
The idea
An AI job search that matches your real experience to live roles, explains why each one fits point by point, and drafts tailored applications where every claim can be substantiated.
How it works
- 01
Your CV is the input. You upload it once and it becomes the fact base everything else is matched and written against.
- 02
Roles come from Platsbanken, the Swedish public job board, so the matching runs against real listings that are actually open.
- 03
Applications are written from what the CV supports. The rule is that a claim has to be backed by something in your own history, so nothing is invented to sound better.
- Decision 1
Every claim has to be backed up: truth before persuasion.
- Decision 2
Explain the match, do not just score it.
- Decision 3
No signup to try; earn the account later.

How I built it
- 01
Defined a good match as fit plus evidence, not keyword overlap.
- 02
Built a match view that shows why a role fits, point by point.
- 03
Tuned the writing so applications sound personal and stay honest.
- 04
Made it free to try with no signup, so the value is obvious first.
What came of it
What I learned
- Honesty is a feature: an application you can stand behind beats an impressive but hollow one.
- Explaining the fit builds more trust than a match percentage alone.
Next steps
- Saved profiles and job discovery from a single CV.
- Application tracking and follow-up reminders.
Business potential
A large, recurring need with clear willingness to pay during an active job search. Freemium with a pro tier for power applicants, and an honest brand to grow on.
Happy to walk through the thinking, the trade-offs and where it's headed next.
