Workaholic

About

Workaholic monitors freelance and job platforms, applies your filters locally, and notifies you only when new jobs match your profile — no server, no AI, no external dependencies.

HOW IT WORKS

Workaholic runs automatically in the background at your chosen interval. Every cycle, it fetches jobs from the platforms you enable, normalizes them into a single format, applies your filters, calculates a match score, and notifies you only about new jobs that passed every filter.

You stop wasting time opening multiple tabs manually. Workaholic does it for you.

SUPPORTED PLATFORMS

Workaholic integrates with the most popular job and freelance platforms used by Brazilian developers and freelancers. You can enable or disable each platform individually from the Profile tab based on your preferences.

---

SMART MATCHING

The match score is calculated from the job's perspective:
(your matched skills / total skills required by the job) x 100

When a job listing has no structured skills, Workaholic infers them from the title and description using a built-in skill catalog and synonym mapping — so you don't miss relevant opportunities just because the posting was poorly written.

A dynamic minimum score and minimum match count prevent low-quality results from reaching your feed.

FILTERING FLOW

Every job goes through this pipeline before reaching you:

1. Platform enabled check
2. Blocked words filter (title)
3. Keywords / role filter
4. Minimum budget filter
5. Skill match score calculation
6. Score and match count thresholds
7. Deduplication
8. Sort by score (highest first)

Only jobs that pass every step generate a notification.

---

SMART RESUME

Workaholic goes beyond job discovery. The built-in resume module lets you import your resume as PDF or DOCX, select any job from your results, and get a side-by-side Before / After comparison showing exactly which skills the job requires that are missing from your resume. You can also download an optimized version of your resume tailored to that specific job.

Stop sending the same resume to every job. Let Workaholic show you what to change — and why.
