235 users in two weeks, zero marketing budget. That's where Jobbi.app sits right now, built by a staff software engineer who was laid off on February 24, 2026 alongside 200+ coworkers.
The premise is simple: you upload a "master resume" - a bloated 3-to-10-page document containing every job, duty, side project, and tech stack you've ever touched. Then you paste a target job description. Jobbi's AI pulls out the relevant experience and generates a tailored resume that actually matches what the employer is looking for.
It's a pattern that makes sense. Anyone who's job-hunted seriously knows the drill: you maintain one massive document, then spend 20-30 minutes per application manually cutting it down and reordering bullets to match the posting. Jobbi automates that grunt work.
The tool is free, which tracks with the builder's motivation - he made it to survive his own job search first, then shared it. There's no shortage of AI resume tools on the market (Teal, Jobscan, Kickresume all play in this space), but most charge $20-40/month. A free option with a focused feature set - just the tailoring, no bloated career platform around it - fills a gap for people who are, by definition, watching their spending.
The 235-user count is modest, but organic growth without any paid promotion suggests the tool is solving a real problem. For job seekers in tech's ongoing cycle of layoffs and cautious hiring, anything that cuts application time from 30 minutes to 5 is worth a look.
