Star History

The Short Version

JustHireMe is an AGPL-licensed, local-first desktop workbench for people who are tired of noisy job boards and black-box AI apply tools.

Maintainer

JustHireMe is built and maintained by Vasudev Siddh - full-stack AI engineer, open-source builder, and the person who got tired of bad job boards and built something better.

Sponsor the project - Sponsorship keeps JustHireMe actively maintained, funds source adapter coverage, and supports the local-first architecture that makes this different from every cloud-first alternative.

Current Status

JustHireMe's stable core is the local-first desktop workbench, Python sidecar API, lead ingestion, deterministic ranking, profile-aware matching, local CRM workflows, and document/outreach generation. Every release is built by GitHub Actions from a v* tag and now ships installers for Windows, macOS, and Linux.

If you are new here, start with the frontend preview first. If you want to contribute backend behavior, source adapters, or packaging, use the full desktop setup below.

It helps you:

Browser automation and auto-apply code exists in the repository, but it is experimental, opt-in, and unsupported as part of the stable core. The supported open-source core is scraper, ranker, vector matching, and customizer.
