Resumes are meaningless. Career ladders collapsed.
And somehow you're supposed to 'network' your way through it all.

We've asked ourselves these questions. A lot.
We're Vrijen and Logan. Before co-founding Careerspan, we were each other's career coaches — helping one another identify and communicate what made us valuable. We started this company to scale that same kind of help.

Here's what 2.5 years of building has taught us: the market is drowning in sameness. Identical resumes. Generic LinkedIn profiles. AI-generated cover letters. Everyone sounds the same because no one knows what makes them different.
The brutal truth: having skills isn't enough anymore. You need to
signal them in a way that cuts through the noise.
But people are terrible at identifying their own uniqueness. They
can't see their differentiators. They don't recognize their own patterns of excellence. They miss the very things that would make them stand out.
That's the gap we're filling — helping people discover and
articulate what makes them irreplaceable in a world where we're all at risk of being replaced..

What We're Building
An AI that actually knows your career story — not just your resume bullets.
We're building the intelligence layer between you and opportunity. Our conversational AI discovers the value you can't see in yourself, captures the stories you forget to tell, and helps you articulate why you matter in a world drowning in sameness.
This isn't career coaching. It's career intelligence that compounds over time.
Because in a market full of noise, only those who can signal their unique value will break through.
