Market is not bad but job posting data is fragmented and monopolised by few players.
Not every job is posted in Linkedin and Indeed.
We started to index jobs directly from startups and SMBs careers pages, found tons lying outside, making it easier for job seekers to find one.
For decades, we have been using resumes as primary people discovery tool. frankly speaking, no one likes to update boring resume stuff. We thought why can't we discover people by more signals, deep lens which a personal website/portfolio gives.
This gives people motivation to keep portfolio website upto date with journaling.
ATS automatically captures all signals realtime from github, blogs, case studies docs comprehensively and showcase to employers
We are approaching not AI heavy way. Balance of SAAS + AI integration to build it into people hiring platform.
We have been using AGNO framework for HuntYourTribe quite sometime. It is pretty much working out well for us. Minimalistic design for isolation, decoupling and control plane architecture.
Intelligence in today's world is very subjective. Something could comes easily for you or passionate to push boundaries in certain fields like maths, physics, music etc. It can be trained.
I would say "Wisdom cannot be trained". Every individual is unique in this world and journey that he travels, experience in professional and personal life, mindset shapes an individual. Its almost impossible to replicate. That wisdom guides the person forever.
yes. I totally agree with this. Every successful startups has multiple failure iteration in the past.
Success at first attempt is rare. My original question was around when you decide to pursue one of your idea fulltime. It could be 1, 2, 3rd attempt but at some point, we only have 2 option. Quit or next iteration
I would offload boring stuffs like HTML, CSS to AI agent.
Core problem solving would start from prompting my brain.
I have been in programming for decade now, building my startup now.
AI as boring co-pilot, I would anyday feel happy.
We started portfolio builder, where professionals can comprehensively express their work with ease. We believed work speaks louder than shiny websites.
but 5 months, we learned we can't build sustainable business out of it. But we had around 1000+ signups. Users gave us feedback, currently my portfolio looks standalone, if you could connect me with maybe potentials jobs etc then, something value i can pay for.
Then we tried to connect portfolio with ATS. Portfolio-first ATS for startups and lean teams. Then yeah, we got around 10 customers who are ready to pay.
Recently couple of colleges, also expressed interest for such tool.
Now we got our core principle in place, "Build by feedbacks, not with assumptions"
But reality is most startups begins with idea at day 1.
Real game changer is Idea -> problem -> solution -> value for money -> customer, how quickly your startup make these transitions and get your Market Product Fit.
Journey will be hard but hang in there and keep your product floating and keep connecting the dots. No playbook exists
