Roadmap

What’s next, and what shipped.

Jobly is shaped by feedback from the people who use it. Here are the releases we are working on, the ideas we are weighing, and a dated list of every change.

Upcoming releases

NowJobly v0.1.0 is built, and its Chrome Web Store listing is in progress. Everything below comes after it.

  1. v0.2.0Next

    Application tracker

    Keep every application in one place.

    Track applications

    • A status on every saved job: Saved, Applied, Interview, Offer or Rejected.
    • Notes on each job, such as the recruiter’s name, salary talk and questions to ask.
    • A “Did you apply?” prompt after you click Apply, so the tracker fills itself.
    • A warning on job cards when you already applied to that company.

    Follow up

    • Follow-up reminders, such as “check in after 7 days”.
    • A small dashboard: applications this week, interviews and your response rate.

    Your data

    • Export and import your saved jobs and tracker as a file (JSON or CSV).
  2. v0.3.0Upcoming

    Smarter matching

    Tell Jobly what you never want to see, and what to watch closely.

    Dealbreakers

    • Exclude keywords, set a salary floor, and hide work modes or companies you don’t want.

    Alerts

    • Follow a company: get an alert for any new role at an employer you pick.
    • A count of new matches on the toolbar icon.
  3. v0.4.0Upcoming

    Apply faster, privately

    Less retyping between job pages and your applications.

    Capture and reuse

    • Save any job from any website with a right-click “Save to Jobly”. It reads the page title and address only when you click.
    • A copy kit: one-click copy of your name, links and a short intro to paste into forms.
    • Cover letter templates with fill-in fields such as the company and role. No AI.

    Your devices

    • Sync saved jobs and your tracker across your computers through your Chrome account (small size limit).

Plans can change and nothing here has a date. Want something? Tell us; requests decide what comes next.

Later

Ideas we are weighing

  • Resume keyword checkPaste your resume and see which keywords a job asks for that it lacks. It would run on your device, and depends on having each job’s description.
  • More companies and hiring systemsAdding career pages people ask for, and the systems companies use to publish them.
  • Clearer job cardsShowing salary and location details more consistently across sources.
  • More role familiesSuch as data, DevOps and mobile engineering.
  • Other browsersListing Jobly in the Edge and Firefox add-on stores.
Not planned

What Jobly won’t do

  • AI-written resumes and cover lettersEvery request costs money, and Jobly is free. Templates you fill in yourself are planned instead.
  • Autofill on every siteIt needs access to every page you visit. Jobly promises it can’t see your tabs, so it won’t.
  • AccountsYour data stays in your browser, so there is nothing to sign in to.
Changelog

Everything that shipped

  1. A faster home page

    • The home page loads only the screenshot for your theme, and phones get a smaller one.
    • This roadmap now lists the releases we are working on.
  2. Cleaner pages and fewer false listings

    • Every page has a clean web address and its own share image.
    • Jobs that Ashby marks as unlisted are no longer shown.
    • The legal pages say more about the form IP address, transfers and your rights.
  3. Many more jobs and employers

    • More than 400 employers read through their own career pages, plus remote job boards.
    • Five more hiring systems: SmartRecruiters, Workable, Recruitee, Teamtailor and Personio. Workday and Arbeitnow are read more deeply.
    • Cards from We Work Remotely, Himalayas and Arbeitnow say which board they came from.
    • The world map places far more jobs, using each job’s city or country.
    • Remotive was removed because its terms don’t fit how Jobly works.
  4. Employers outside the US

    • More than 60 employers outside the United States were added.
    • Jobly’s server restores its job list in seconds after a restart.
    • The privacy policy explains the in-memory request count.
  5. Honest headline numbers

    • Counts on the website cover tech-role jobs only, not every job Jobly stores.
  6. A new website, and fewer logs

    • New website with guides, how dates work, a live list of companies, privacy, security and support pages.
    • After uninstalling, Chrome opens a short optional feedback page. It carries no identifier.
    • Jobly’s server no longer keeps an access log, so your search words aren’t written to its logs.
    • A world map of where the jobs are, with live numbers.
    • A job’s role comes from its title, not from the job board’s own category.
  7. Your data stays on your device

    • Preferences, saved jobs and alerts now live only in your browser. The server keeps no record of who asked for what.
    • Alerts are worked out in your browser: only jobs that appeared since the last check.
    • Real posting dates from each source, a 60-day limit and a Date posted filter.
    • A full-page dashboard, a welcome tour and a helpful message for every empty or error state.
    • Faster under load: identical requests are answered from a two-minute cache.
    • New look: the Switzer typeface, new icons and an animated light and dark switch.
  8. Safer and sturdier

    • Server limits on request rates and input sizes, and a guard that keeps the crawler off private networks.
    • The extension handles slow or failed requests honestly and works with a keyboard and screen readers.
  9. Jobly’s first version

    • Jobly gets its name, a search that understands common job-title variations, and matching to your roles and experience.
    • The server starts reading company career pages on its own schedule.
