Dossier: self-hosted job search app that writes tailored resumes and cover letters
A self-hosted app that tracks job applications and writes tailored resumes and cover letters from one stored profile.
Why it matters
The fastest-climbing local-AI repo of the week at about 2,900 new stars in 7 days, pairing application tracking with tailored document generation.
What you could build with it
A careers coach could self-host Dossier for clients, generating a tailored resume and cover letter for each posting from one stored profile instead of rewriting applications by hand.
Does it hold up?
Usable as a self-hosted app now with a clear job-tracking plus document-generation flow, though resume quality across different industries is still unproven by independent users.
