Problems Resumes come from a different era. Their origins trace back to the 15th century. Work has changed. The resume hasn't. It is still a one-page document filled with bullet points. Then AI made things worse. Now AI writes, reads, and filters resumes. “ATS-friendly keywords” mean everyone uses the same language, making everyone look the same. Even without AI, a resume says very little about who someone is. It compresses years of work into bullet points and strips away context. It does not show how one thinks or what makes them different. It doesn't provide proof either: anyone can say they ran marketing campaigns or built products, but there is no built-in way to verify what actually happened. The result is missed opportunities. Great people get overlooked because their work never gets seen. Opportunities depend on who you know and whether your resume reaches the right people, not how good your work actually is. The resume is a dying concept. We need something better. Solutions What we need is not a better resume with better formatting or better keywords. We need something fundamentally different. A tool that helps knowledge professionals show their work, not just describe it. A place to add stories, proof, and real context. A place to continuously share ideas and perspectives. A living, “single source of truth” profile that reflects both past experience and current thinking through rich media. Developers have GitHub. Designers have Dribbble. What does everyone else have? Some of the capabilities of this new system would include: Multimedia storytelling beyond bullet points: Resumes compress experience into bullet points. A better system expands it with videos, visuals, and case studies to tell richer, more complete stories. Video-first profiles: Today's world is video-first. Studies show that 76% of hiring managers pay more attention to profiles with video. A modern profile should support self-introductions and project explainers, with tools like guided scripts and built-in teleprompters. Video endorsements: The strongest validation comes from people who have seen the work up close. A better system enables collaborators to record short, project-based video endorsements, adding a layer of trust and credibility. AI content coaching: After analyzing a person's background through sources like LinkedIn or resumes, the system identifies gaps and provides clear content direction. It continues to surface relevant topic ideas over time, helping build a consistent and evolving body of work. A page that represents your best thinking: Content is no longer optional, but creating content is still hard. Most professionals do not know what to say or how to say it. Even when they do, their content is scattered across platforms and buried in feeds. There is no single place that represents their best thinking. Dynamic profile creation: A single static resume no longer works. A better system generates tailored versions of a profile based on specific opportunities, allowing each version to be shared through a unique link.
