Never Forget What You Did
The resume you write in a panic forgets your best work. The diary is for logging wins while they're fresh — for anyone who's ever sat down to update a resume and drawn a blank on two years of work.
A structured career profile, not a notes file
Six sections — identity, work timeline, education, skills, preferences, documents — each with completion tracking, so you can see exactly what's missing.
Accomplishments attached to real roles
Add, edit, and organize accomplishments under the job where they happened. Everything downstream — tailoring, cover letters, interview prep — draws on this record.
AI STAR rewrites you approve first
One click proposes a high-impact STAR rewrite of any bullet — and your original stays untouched until you accept it. Reject restores it exactly.
Coaching questions that jog your memory
As you add roles, the diary asks Socratic follow-up questions to pull out the specifics you'd otherwise leave in your head.
A profile assistant with a paper trail
Chat with an assistant about your profile; proposed changes show as a diff you apply or reject, and an audit log records every change with a timestamp.
Free plan: The full diary — all sections, accomplishments, and preview-first STAR rewrites (AI actions use your daily credits: 3/day free).
Pro ($9 / month or $59 / year): 50 AI credits per day, plus the Pro STAR Builder story bank for interview prep.
Full plan details on the pricing page. No credit card required for the free plan.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why keep a career diary at all?
Because resumes are written months or years after the work. Logging accomplishments while the numbers and context are fresh means your next resume, cover letter, and interview stories are built from real material instead of reconstruction.
Does the AI change my entries without asking?
No. STAR rewrites are preview-first — the proposal sits alongside your original until you explicitly accept it. The profile assistant works the same way: changes appear as a diff you apply or reject, with an audit log either way.
Can I import from LinkedIn?
There's a guided LinkedIn import flow to bring your work history across, and you can refine it from there.
Is the diary free?
Yes — the diary itself is part of the free plan. AI actions (like STAR rewrites) draw on your daily AI credits.
