Privacy-first career exploration

Your Career. Your Direction.

Explore what's possible. Understand what it takes. Reflect on what fits. Build what you need. Career Compass reads your resume on your own machine and turns it into career paths, gap analyses, and application materials — with the AI provider of your choice.

Local-first. Your resume and personal data stay on this device.

Four ways in

Discover

Find your paths

Generate six personalised career suggestions from your resume, compare them side by side across seven dimensions, and explore what it's really like to work in an industry.

Assess

Know the gap

See what you have versus what you need, get a step-by-step learning path to job-ready, and map your skills into professional frameworks.

Reflect

Test the fit

Imagine three alternative five-year futures, hear four perspectives on your profile from a board of advisors, and discover what matters most with the values compass.

Materials

Build what you need

Draft a cover letter, write a 30–60 second elevator pitch, get structured feedback on your resume, and rehearse interview questions.

Bring your own AI

Fully local, by default

Point Career Compass at Ollama and everything — resume, analysis, conversation — stays on your machine. The app even walks you through setting it up.

Or any major provider

Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, Google Gemini, Groq, OpenRouter, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Your key, your choice, one settings tab each.

Keys kept safe

API keys are encrypted with your operating system's native secure storage — Keychain on macOS, Credential Manager on Windows, libsecret on Linux.

Privacy-first, by design

Career decisions are personal. Career Compass is built so your resume, your doubts, and your five-year plans are not on someone else's server.

For students & graduates

Turn a thin resume and a lot of questions into concrete directions: which paths fit, what the first job pays, how long the learning path takes, and what to say in the interview.

For career changers

Your experience counts for more than you think. Map your existing skills onto new fields, see the genuine gaps, and rehearse the story that connects where you've been to where you're going.
