gist.id

Profiles with a chain of evidence, for people who commit.

The cost of producing a tailored CV went to zero last year. So did the signal. Candidates use LLMs to spin tailored CVs for every application. Recruiters use LLMs to screen the flood. Both sides are talking through layers of generated text, and the signal-to-noise ratio has fallen off a cliff.

gist.id is a profile that can't be generated. Your work history, skills, and writing live in a Git repository you own, signed with your own key, and verified against independently-checkable sources — public GitHub activity, published packages, patent offices. The same canonical URL serves every recruiter, every hiring manager, every future colleague. There's no per- application tailoring because there's nothing to tailor.

Built for engineers first. For the kind of person who commits.
