Looking for
Question 1 of 7
I have been in technology all of my life. When I was 16 and new to the internet, I launched a website design company called Designs On Demand. I landed a customer in another state and made them a website. From then on, I've stayed close to technology, working for Verizon Wireless for 10 years and later for a GovTech SaaS company. After a layoff in November 2025, I built a tool to help me find my next job. That's now RoleNavigator, and it inspired me to continue building for myself - as I'm the only one I can truly rely on. I build tools that are easy to use and make the user's lives easier.
Question 2 of 7
I am constantly improving RoleNavigator and CapQuick. RoleNavigator is for job seekers. The last two years (2025-2026) layoffs and regorgs have skyrocketed - driven by AI and financial downturn, there are more tech people in the job market now than ever before. Because of this, filtering and rejections are also increased. There are more people getting nothing back than those getting interviews by 30x. RoleNavigator helps take the hard part of job seeking and makes it into a system CapQuick is inspired by X's continual push toward a video format. CapQuick adds captions quickly to any video without taking any of your data, sharing any of it to the cloud, and with no monthly subscription. It's quick, easy and affordable.
Question 3 of 7
As mentioned above, after losing my job in November 2025, I was looking for a new role and built a tool that helped me find it. When I realized that's where my true power is, I couldn't stop.
Question 4 of 7
That you can iterate on really good ideas slowly over time. At first, I felt like development was a race. While speed to market is important, it isn't the driving factor of what makes or breaks a business or a solution.
Question 5 of 7
Every time I saw another layoff in the news, I knew this solution was more important than ever.
Question 6 of 7
Onboarding, acquisition, and retention. Feedback is important, but I'm working on how best to get feedback from my users and act on it.
Question 7 of 7
Just go for it. The doubt will remain, even after you start. Even after you get your first paying customer, the doubt is still there. So, you might as well be trying.

What does everyone think about this feedback?
I think you could remove the "Not sure which roles to aim for?" and "Features" areas (at least) and I agree with another user: you should remove the free plan.

Hop ProductLooking for more feedback around this. The section mentioned above, "Not sure which roles to aim for?" is new and was designed to fix stalled onboarding where users stopped without entering keywords to job search.
I personally don't like free plans, as it seems like people like to kick tires. Maybe a few freebies, but not all "free".
I actually totally agree! I’m removing the free tier from LaunchChair, but purely because it doesn’t include the MCP. In actual tech most companies know they’ll lose the majority of free tier customers, so assume the conversion is awful.
If it makes you guys feel better Marc Lou has a whole manifesto on why free plans are whack… I’ve not yet read it but it’s probably a “good to read”
I wasn't referring to the free plan. More about the quiz feedback The free plan only scans the first time, and you don't get any document creation or application tracking. So, free is basically job search once.
I just launched Career Compass on RoleNavigator. It shows you your career archetype and the kinds of roles where people with your profile tend to thrive. Take the 2-minute survey here: https://rolenavigator.com/quiz
What does everyone think about this feedback?
This looks nice, too many tools focus too much on resume optimization, looks like this tools does the other way around.

i think they are complimenting you? maybe? saying you don't focus mostly on resume optimization, and that's good cause everyone else does?
Yeah. That was my take. There is a lot of AI slop in this space, which I actively have to fight against. Thanks for the feedback!
Love seeing this! What a great start to a little social media corner! 🤝
