The problem

A Chrome extension captures job ads; a LangGraph workflow parses the CV and the ad, scores the match and drafts tailored cover letters and CV revisions.
South African legal information is scattered across portals with limited keyword search, while international e-discovery platforms are often priced beyond the local market.
An Android app that drives picking and packing for warehouse and fulfilment operations.

What was built

A Chrome extension captures advertisements, stores them in PostgreSQL and queues analysis. The platform compares a CV with a job description, produces a structured match score and generates tailored cover letters and CV revisions.
An integrated research, e-discovery and learning platform: hybrid semantic search across more than 10,000 judgments, a precedent citation graph, structured document extraction, AI-assisted discovery and stateful research workflows.
