Career Ownership. Private by Design.
Refine.tools is the "Anti-SaaS". We believe your career data—your resume, salary negotiations, and financial goals—are too sensitive for an unnecessary account database.
Local-First DB
Dashboard data lives in your browser (IndexedDB). If you clear site data, it's gone unless you export a backup.
Bring Your Key
Use your own OpenAI API key. It is stored locally and sent with your AI requests so you control usage.
No Resume Database
We don't sell your resume or job-search data to recruiters. AI requests are processed transiently to produce the result.
Why "Refine"?
Most career tools are "Candidate Management Systems" in disguise—designed to package you up for recruiters. Refine is a "Career Command Center" designed for you.
It started as a simple resume rewriter and evolved into a complete operating system for managing the business of your life.
Analytics and AI Processing
Refine.tools uses Vercel Analytics and Speed Insights to understand anonymous usage and performance trends. We do not use those tools to collect resume text, job descriptions, saved dashboard records, or OpenAI API keys.
When you use an AI tool, the submitted text is sent through a server route to the model provider so the output can be generated. Refine.tools does not write that submitted text to an application database.
