Daily Dial inverts that: you colour in a clock face after the fact, and the shape of the day becomes visible at a glance.</p>https://pranav083.github.io/post/project/jobhakken/Wed, 15 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400https://pranav083.github.io/post/project/jobhakken/ <p><strong><a href="https://jobhakken.com/">jobhakken.com</a> · proprietary, closed source</strong></p> <p>A local-first desktop application that centralises job listings from LinkedIn, Indeed, Dice and others, scores each posting against your résumé, and helps you apply faster — running entirely on your own machine.</p> <hr> <h2 id="the-idea">The idea</h2> <p>Job searching produces a large volume of low-signal listings, and the tools that help you filter them generally want your résumé, your search history, and an account on their servers.</p> <p>JobHakken keeps all of it local. Listings are aggregated and scored on the user's own machine, and the AI features run on a <strong>bring-your-own-key</strong> basis — you supply an OpenRouter or OpenAI-compatible key, and requests go from your machine to that provider directly. Nothing passes through a server of ours.</p>
