  JobAnvil is a private, automated job search tool that runs on your Windows PC. This extension is its companion — it lets you capture job listings from LinkedIn directly into your local JobAnvil app as you browse, and import your LinkedIn profile for AI analysis.
  
  WHAT IT DOES
  • Capture jobs from LinkedIn with a single click while you browse
  • Import your LinkedIn profile text into JobAnvil for AI-powered optimization suggestions
  • All captured jobs queue locally and flow into your private pipeline — scored, tracked, and matched against your profile
  
  HOW IT WORKS
  When you browse a job listing on a supported site, JobAnvil detects it and adds a capture button. Click it and the job is sent directly to your local JobAnvil desktop app via native messaging — no cloud, no server, no third-party storage. Your data never leaves your machine.
  
  REQUIRES JOBANVIL DESKTOP APP
  This extension requires the JobAnvil desktop app for Windows (available at jobanvil.io). It will not function as a standalone tool — it is a capture bridge between your browser and your local app.
  
  PRIVACY
  JobAnvil is built on a local-first architecture. This extension communicates exclusively with the JobAnvil app installed on your own PC using Chrome's native messaging API. No job data, profile information, or browsing activity is transmitted to any external server.
  
  SUPPORTED SITES
  • LinkedIn (job listings + profile import)
  • Indeed

  • Workday
  
  GET STARTED
  Download the JobAnvil desktop app at jobanvil.io, then install this extension. Once the app is running, the extension connects automatically — no configuration needed.

The desktop app may send anonymous usage telemetry, license validation requests, and (for Managed AI subscribers) AI prompts to JobAnvil's servers — see https://jobanvil.io/privacy for the full data policy.
