I got tired of recruiters copy-pasting LinkedIn profiles all day, so I built a Chrome extension to automate it — Looking for brutally honest feedback!

Idea Validation / Need feedback

Hey everyone!

I’m a solo dev and recently noticed how much time recruiters waste on manual work. They spend hours copy-pasting LinkedIn profiles, reformatting CVs into PDFs, and manually checking if someone fits a job description.

So I built CandiData (Manifest V3) to solve this right in the browser:

  • 1-Click Smart PDFs/CSV: Instant profile extraction without manual copy-pasting.
  • AI Match Score: Paste a job vacancy and get a real-time candidate compatibility score while browsing LinkedIn.
  • Zero Setup: No complex dashboards, just open a profile and click.

It's in Public Beta and approved in the Web Store. Would love your brutal feedback on the UX/UI or features!
