The problem it solves

Searching LinkedIn for new job postings and copying the details into a tracker is slow, and it's easy to miss a good listing. You end up spending time hunting for roles instead of applying or reaching out.

Who it fits

Recruiters and job seekers who want an organized, up-to-date view of new LinkedIn postings.

How it works

  1. The system checks a LinkedIn job search feed for new postings
  2. It opens each listing and pulls the full job description
  3. AI summarizes the responsibilities and key benefits
  4. The job title, company, and summary are saved to a Google Sheet
What you get

Job market shifts you can track over time

You get new LinkedIn job postings summarized and organized in a spreadsheet as soon as they appear.

What you get

A running spreadsheet of new job postings with AI-written summaries of each role.

What you need

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
