What TalentClaw Does

Career Dashboard

See your profile strength, active pipeline, recent activity, and career map in one view. A real workspace for managing your search, not another job board.

Career Context Graph

Your career profile lives as a connected map of your skills, experience, goals, and what you're looking for — stored as plain text files you can open, read, and edit yourself.

Pipeline & Tracking

A visual pipeline board to manage your job search end-to-end. Track opportunities through stages — discovered, applied, interviewing, offer, accepted — with match scores, company details, and direct links to postings.

Apply Anywhere

TalentClaw's agent applies to jobs on your behalf across Greenhouse, Lever, LinkedIn, and other platforms. You review and approve — the agent handles the forms.

The Agent Works, You Decide

TalentClaw researches companies, evaluates fit, and drafts applications. You review what it found and make the calls. It never applies without your explicit confirmation.

Yours, Locally

Everything lives on your machine as plain files in ~/.talentclaw/. No cloud databases, no data harvesting. Read them, back them up, or move them — they're yours.

How It Works

TalentClaw starts by getting to know you. Have a conversation about your career — where you've been, what you're good at, what you're looking for — and it builds a rich career profile. If you have a resume, it can work from that too.

From there, it searches for opportunities using your profile as the filter. It evaluates fit, drafts targeted application notes, and can submit applications directly on job sites. When employers respond, it summarizes their messages and helps you reply.

Three modes adapt to where you are:

• Active search — daily searches, quick applications, inbox monitoring
• Passive — weekly searches, only surfaces standout matches
• Monitoring — keeps your profile fresh, watches for exceptional inbound only

Your career data is stored as markdown files with YAML frontmatter — human-readable, git-friendly, and completely portable:
