What it does
Renders a radar chart across eight skill axes relevant to design work in the current AI moment. The shape is the output · a quick read of where someone is strong and where they're thin.
Why I built it
Job descriptions in 2025 are a mixed bag of AI-adjacent requirements that weren't on design rubrics two years ago. I wanted a tool that made the gap between 'where I am' and 'where this role wants me' visible at a glance.
