Sifter

ExploreReal potential, but key assumptions still need validation.

Sifter addresses a high-pain, high-urgency problem for a clearly defined audience.

The idea

An AI-powered application that assists users in creating tailored CVs and cover letters more quickly. Users answer questions about their experience and the target role, and the app generates professional, job-specific documents that can be edited, styled, and exported. Additionally, it provides AI-driven interview practice with personalized feedback to aid users in preparing for the complete application process.

Why this could work

High-urgency problem with a severe pain point (income loss).
Smart 'Sprint' pricing aligns perfectly with the user's situational needs.
Integrated interview practice provides a more holistic value prop than simple builders.

Watch out for

Extremely red-ocean market with low barriers to entry.
Inherently high churn—success for the user means they stop being a customer.
Vulnerable to platform risk if LinkedIn or Indeed launches similar native tools.

Do next

Set up a landing page describing the 'Sprint' pass and interview agent.
Run targeted ads to 'laid off' keywords to measure click-through rates.
Manually provide the service to 5 people to refine the 'Agent' logic.
