I Built an AI job search assistant that works
Hey HN, I'm Serdar, and after getting laid off, I found myself drowning in job applications. LinkedIn, Dice, Otta and company websites were exhausting and demoralizing. That's why my friend and I created Wobo (wobo.ai) – an AI recruiter that automates the entire process. But Wobo goes beyond just matching keywords on your resume. We use LLMs and a series of specialized questions to create a detailed "persona" of you, capturing not just your skills and experience, but also your personality and how you approach different situations. Here's how Wobo works: Gets to know you: We analyze your…

In the maker’s words, at launch
Hey HN, I'm Serdar, and after getting laid off, I found myself drowning in job applications. LinkedIn, Dice, Otta and company websites were exhausting and demoralizing. That's why my friend and I created Wobo (wobo.ai) – an AI recruiter that automates the entire process. But Wobo goes beyond just matching keywords on your resume. We use LLMs and a series of specialized questions to create a detailed "persona" of you, capturing not just your skills and experience, but also your personality and how you approach different situations. Here's how Wobo works: Gets to know you: We analyze your responses to reveal your work style, how you handle challenges, and what motivates you. We find jobs that fit YOU: We go beyond basic skills matching to find jobs that really fit your personality and preferences. We even use a "similarity score" to see how well a job matches your profile. If it's not a good fit, we won't apply Application questions: Wobo uses your "persona" to answer those personality-revealing questions in a way that showcases your best self. We've been developing Wobo for over two years and have 14,000+ users. One user recently told us that Wobo gave him back the time to spend with his daughter – that's exactly the kind of impact we're hoping to make. Think of Wobo as your personal job search assistant, working tirelessly in the background so you can focus on what matters most. Have questions about Wobo? Ask me anything! I'm happy to answer them.

I've been deeply involved in working with AI agents and large language models (LLMs) for a while now. During a recent job search, I found myself repeatedly explaining my skills and experiences to various assistants. Around the same time, I was creating content for my website to help hiring teams understand my capabilities better and make informed decisions. MCP had started to gain momentum and I saw a way to reduce my toil. So I built an MCP server that can effectively communicate my qualifications as a job candidate. This server acts as an AI-powered resume, providing an understanding of my…

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
