Job Ad BS Scorer

A red-flag score for job ads to help candidates spot inflated postings

Problem

Job seekers must quickly sift through postings to spot vague promises, missing salaries and absurd requirements. A developer already built a 'BS score' for Australian job ads, proving the pain is real, but it only covers one market and one dimension; non-Australian and non-English ads have no comparable tool.

Solution

Paste a job ad or link to get a red-flag list: missing salary, vague 'competitive pay', inflated years of experience, kitchen-sink responsibilities, unnecessary degrees. It returns an explainable inflation index, a baseline comparison with similar roles, and supports English and Chinese ads.

Users

Active job seekers, new graduates, cross-market candidates, career coaches helping clients screen opportunities

MVP

Paste-text analysis; per-item red flags and an overall inflation score; English and Chinese support; rewrite suggestions such as how to ask about salary; shareable result link

Revenue

Free basic tier; subscription for batch analysis, historical comparison and cover-letter/interview-question generation; a paid 'ad quality check' for recruiters

Why now

AI-generated job ads are rising, making inflated language more common, while candidate-side tools remain aggregation-first and lack a quality-assessment layer; a solo dev can ship a rules-plus-LLM hybrid quickly
