A patient teammate for your job search

CareerForge finds postings, scores how well they fit you, writes a tailored CV and cover letter as print-ready PDFs, and tracks every application — without your data ever leaving your computer.

# the whole workflow, three commands

/setup — tell it about yourself, once

/search — find and rank new postings

/apply — get a tailored CV + cover letter, as PDFs

It learns who you are

Point /setup at your CV or let it interview you. It builds a profile from your real experience and never invents skills you don't have.

It finds the right openings

/search sweeps the job boards you choose, skips what you've already seen, and ranks each match High, Medium, or Low.

It writes, a reviewer checks

/apply drafts a tailored CV and cover letter, a second AI critiques both, and the result compiles to print-ready PDFs.

You see your whole pipeline

A local dashboard turns your application log into KPIs and charts: weekly activity, status mix, fit distribution, top companies.

Private by default

Profile, applications, and PDFs stay on your machine. Nothing is uploaded, tracked, or shared — the data file is yours.

Works anywhere

No hardcoded country, language, or job board. Cover letters are written in the posting's language; portals come from your config.

The dashboard, live

This is a working copy of the tracking dashboard, running on fictional data right here in your browser. Yours fills with your own applications.
