How it works

Build a home base for company introductions.

  1. Set up your profile home

    Bring your resume, projects, and preferred working terms into one profile. Companies and AI agents like Grok Bot can discover your profile through MCP.

  2. Welcome an introduction you choose

    Read the company’s role and decide whether to open a conversation from your profile.

  3. Take the conversation to a team

    Discuss the work and your terms together. If you join, the company hires you and pays you directly.

Optional proctored tests

Keep evidence of your skills with your profile.

After you agree to meet a company, it can request optional proctored tests. A real person watches the session with two cameras.

  1. English screening
  2. Thinking skills
  3. Coding with no AI

What companies see

Put your developer background under one roof.

Your profile holds the details a company needs before a conversation. Keep your experience, communication, and schedule together where companies can read them for free.

Experience
Gather your development history in one place. Include your resume, education, and the languages, frameworks, and cloud tools you use.
Communication
Keep your communication background with your work history. Add your English level, screening answers, and a video interview with a written transcript.
US-hours overlap
Keep your working preferences alongside your experience. Include shift flexibility and your expected monthly pay.
Proof
Store links to your apps, repositories, and references. After you agree to an introduction, a company can request optional watched tests and hold its own interview.
