May 25, 2026 I built a free AI tool to help job seekers (Career Compass)

Hey Indie Hackers! 👋

I just launched Career Compass, a free AI-powered career assistant for job seekers.

The Problem:

Job seekers struggle with outdated CVs, spend hours writing cover letters, and miss jobs that match their skills. Paid career services are expensive ($200+), and free tools are limited.

The Solution:

Career Compass helps people optimize their job search without paying a dime:

- ✅ Analyzes CVs and gives instant feedback

- ✅ Finds jobs that match your skills

- ✅ Rewrites CVs for specific jobs

- ✅ Generates cover letters in seconds

- ✅ Downloads saved jobs as CSV

Tech Stack:

- Frontend: Streamlit (Python)

- AI: Groq (Llama 3.1) for fast analysis

- Jobs API: JSearch for real-time listings

- Hosting: Streamlit Cloud

- Privacy: No data storage, everything processed in real-time

Why I Built It:

I saw too many talented people struggling with their job search because they couldn't afford expensive career services. Everyone deserves access to good tools.

Would love feedback from the community! What features would you add? What's broken?

Thanks! 🙏
