Roundwise · In development

Never lose
the thread.

Every other job tool helps you apply faster. Roundwise carries what happens after — every opportunity from saved to offer, with the stage it is in and the history that got it there.

Roundwise is being built in the open. The capture and match engine below is real and running today inside the Freezume browser extension.

Five states. One opportunity.

An opportunity is always in exactly one of these, and moving it records when. That record is what makes the fourth round answerable.

  1. 01

    Saved

    Captured, with its URL, company and role — before the tab closes.

  2. 02

    Applied

    You mark it applied. Nothing is auto-submitted, ever.

  3. 03

    Viewed

    Someone opened it. The thread is still warm.

  4. 04

    Interview

    Rounds, notes and outcomes, attached to the opportunity.

  5. 05

    Offer

    The outcome, with the whole history that led to it.

The gap

Everyone optimised the wrong end of the funnel.

Teal, Huntr, Simplify — all excellent, all clustered in the same four stages. The stage that decides the outcome has nobody standing in it.

Prep

this is Roundwise

Four stages of tooling to help you send the application. One stage that decides whether you get the job.

Applying is cheap. Rounds are not.

You can send forty applications in an afternoon. You get one shot at the onsite, on one date, after weeks of waiting. The hour before it is worth more than the forty applications were.

Generic prep prepares you for a generic company.

"Practice STAR answers" is advice, not preparation. What you actually need is which of your stories to lead with, for this role, against the gaps this posting exposes.

You cannot cross-check yourself.

You are the one person who cannot read your own resume the way a stranger will. A gap you cannot see is a gap you cannot prepare for.

How it works

Four stages. Open any one to see the mechanism.

Nothing here is a black box. Every stage expands into what it actually does, including what it cannot do.

Structured data first

A posting that publishes schema.org JobPosting is read exactly as the employer wrote it.

Then the page itself

No structured data? Real landmarks and site-specific adapters read the rendered page — the DOM a human sees, not a server shell.

Then you, pointing at it

Nothing works? Select the text and right-click. That path works on an intranet careers page, a PDF-in-a-tab, or a posting pasted into a doc.

It says how sure it is

Every capture carries a confidence score, and a low one asks you to check rather than presenting a guess as a fact.

How it is designed

Four layers, pulled apart.

Security described with adjectives cannot be checked. Here is every boundary between your job search and anyone else, and the mechanism standing at each one.

Layer 01

Your browser

Where everything happens first, and where most of it stops.

  • Jobs, statuses and notes are written to your own device the moment you press the button
  • Matching runs here, against a resume that never leaves to be scored
  • Signed out or offline, every one of those still works

Layer 02

A sealed envelope

Nothing readable leaves the browser, including by us in transit.

  • ECDH P-256 key agreement against a public key the server publishes
  • HKDF-SHA256 derivation, then AES-256-GCM authenticated encryption
  • Separate keys each direction, so an IV can never be reused under one key
  • No plaintext fallback: if the channel cannot be established, the sync fails rather than sending in the clear

Layer 03

A gateway that checks before it opens

Your identity is proven before anything expensive happens.

  • Rate limit, then verify your sign-in token, and only then decrypt
  • A fixed allowlist of what may be touched — the client never names a table
  • Your own token is forwarded onward; no master credential is ever used for your data

Layer 04

Rows only you can read

The last boundary is the database itself, not our code.

  • Row-level security keyed to your account, forced on — it applies to the table owner too
  • Separate policies for read, write, update and delete, each revocable on its own
  • A bug in the layers above cannot leak your rows, because Postgres refuses the read

The order matters as much as the list. Layer one works with the other three switched off — which is what makes signing in an enhancement rather than a dependency.

Why Roundwise

Different question, not a longer feature list.

Every tool here is good at what it does. They are answering a different question from the one you have the night before an interview.

Application trackers

"Where did I apply?"

Strength: Genuinely good at the board, the reminders, the autofill.

Gap: Knows nothing about the company or about you. A row in a spreadsheet with a logo.

A general AI chat

"Tell me about this company."

Strength: Fast, flexible, and free.

Gap: Starts from zero every time, has never read your resume, and cites nothing you can check.

Interview practice tools

"How do I sound?"

Strength: Real value on delivery and nerves.

Gap: Practises generic questions. Does not know which of your gaps this posting exposes.

Roundwise

"Do I fit, and what do I prepare?"

Strength: Reads the posting, reads your resume, names the gaps, turns them into prep — attached to the application.

And what Roundwise deliberately will not do

Every one of these is a door held shut on purpose. A product that will not say no becomes four mediocre products.

No job board

We are not another place to browse listings. Find jobs wherever you already do.

No resume builder inside it

Freezume already does that, properly. Roundwise owns resume intelligence, never the document.

No auto-apply

Mass-applying is a race to the bottom and a shrinking one. You mark it applied yourself.

No score without reasoning

A bare number you cannot audit is worse than no number, because you might act on it.

Questions

The things worth asking first.

It is being built in the open. The capture, matching and tracking described on this page run today inside the Freezume browser extension. Interview preparation and cross-device sync are in active development. Nothing on this page describes a feature that does not exist somewhere in the codebase.

Stop preparing for a generic interview.

Track the opportunity you are actually in the middle of. Roundwise is free while it is being built, and everything stays on your device.

No account needed to build a resume. Roundwise adds one only when you want your job search on more than one device.
