Traditional job search is keyword search. You type 'react developer' on Indeed and get a wall of roles where the JD mentions React. Useful, but it ignores seniority, adjacent skills, and the difference between 'React on side projects' and '5 years of React in production'. AI job search replaces keyword matching with semantic matching — our AI reads your full profile and ranks open roles by genuine fit, not text overlap.
When you save a search or open the AI matcher, our system reads your structured profile — work history, skills with seniority weights, certifications, education, recent posts, and project descriptions. It then scores every open role by skill overlap, seniority equivalence (e.g. 'staff engineer' matches 'principal engineer'), transferable skills (e.g. Python data work translates to ML eng), and recency of relevant experience. The output is a ranked list of roles with a 'why this matches' explanation for each one.
Keyword matching misses you when a JD lists 'React.js' and your profile says 'React'. It also overweights stuffed JDs that list every framework under the sun. Semantic matching with AI understands that React.js and React are the same, that 'led the frontend rewrite' implies ownership, and that 5 years of Vue makes you a strong React candidate after a short ramp. The result: fewer false positives and far fewer missed roles.
Save a search and the AI keeps running it in the background. The moment a new role matches your profile with a high confidence score, you get an email or push notification. Most job seekers using AI matching apply to 5× more well-matched roles in the same amount of time compared to keyword-only search.
Your profile data is only used to rank roles for you. We don't sell profile data, we don't train external models on private profile content, and you can turn off AI matching at any time from settings. Anonymous job-seeking mode lets you receive AI-matched roles without your profile being visible in candidate search.
