Suitd: AI job application tailor
A live micro-SaaS I designed and built end-to-end with a product-owner mindset. It tailors resumes and cover letters in seconds, honestly, and at a price that works worldwide.

The problem
Job tools that sell panic, not help
Tailoring an application takes hours. The tools that promise to help often rely on dark patterns: fake “low ATS scores” to cause panic, and bait-and-switch paywalls that appear only after someone has spent 30 minutes setting up.
The solution
A transparent tailor that works in seconds
I shipped a premium, honest platform that tailors resumes and cover letters in seconds. No hidden fees and no generic AI output. I added Purchasing Power Parity pricing so job seekers in lower-earning regions can afford it too.

Key learnings
What shipping a live product taught me
Fixing AI blind spots
Building a real product showed me exactly where AI code generators hallucinate, and how to debug them to keep a hand-crafted quality bar.
A faster design-to-dev pipeline
I upgraded my workflow to ship faster and bring that productivity to the product teams I join next.
The impact
Targeted applications, zero friction
Standing out in crowded HR inboxes is hard. Suitd helps job seekers send highly targeted applications without friction. For me, it proved I can take a complex idea from zero to a fully live, monetised product.
