## What Landera Does

Landera is a SaaS platform for job seekers that uses AI to:
1. Optimize resumes for Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS)
2. Generate tailored cover letters
3. Match users to relevant job opportunities
4. Track job applications

The platform focuses on authentic career development - it enhances real experience rather than fabricating qualifications.

## Core Features

### Resume Optimizer
Upload your resume (PDF/DOCX) and paste a job description. Landera's AI:
- Analyzes skill gaps between your resume and the job requirements
- Asks targeted questions to gather missing context
- Generates an ATS-optimized resume with proper formatting, keywords, and metrics
- Creates a matching cover letter

**Key principle:** Truth preservation - the AI never fabricates skills, experience, or education.

### Job Discovery
Landera scrapes thousands of job listings daily and uses vector similarity to match jobs to your profile:
- Semantic matching based on your resume and skills
- Filters by remote preference, location, seniority level
- Daily email digests with personalized job recommendations

### Chrome Extension

- Saved optimized resumes and cover letters
