They got banned by LinkedIn, so they built a better tool
I think we can all agree: filling out hundreds of job applications is a total soul-crushing grind. You spend hours clicking through forms and tailoring resumes, often just to hear nothing back. It’s an inefficient mess.
So one developer decided to fix it. They built an awesome open-source AI tool called AIHawk to automate the whole process. It worked so well that LinkedIn straight up banned their company, seeing the tool as a threat to their business model.
But that just supercharged their mission! Getting banned was the ultimate validation. Now, they’ve launched LABORO, a product designed to put the power back in the hands of job seekers.
✨ Here’s what it does:
🚀 It uses a powerful AI agent to automatically apply to jobs for you.
🧱 It bypasses platforms and applies directly on company websites. No more endless forms.
🔬 It has a free resume-to-job matching tool that uses machine learning to find roles that genuinely fit your skills.
This is a potential game-changer for anyone on the job hunt. The developer shares the full, wild story and a link to try the free matching tool.
Definitely go read the full Reddit post for all the details!
