New · Proof of Work
Your resume means nothing now.
Here's what actually transacts.
Production is free. Anyone can ship a demo. The rare commodity is proof that you can think — that you understand the work, not just the output. A TalentBoard profile is the portable artifact: link it from your LinkedIn, paste it into your résumé, drop it in a DM.
A public, linkable artifact of your AI work. Reference it anywhere.
Proof of Work · New
Public profiles. Built to transact.
Every TalentBoard member has a public profile — a portable, linkable artifact of their AI work that travels with them. Not a resume. Not a list of tools. Evidence of how they think.

Fluency
From the assessment · How they think
“If retrieval latency exceeded 400ms, the reasoning loop would stall and the agent would start repeating the same tool call. I cached the planning step separately from the execution step so recovery didn't have to restart from scratch.”
What a profile shows
- 01
The AI Fluency score
Scored across four dimensions, reviewed and adjusted by a human before it goes live.
- 02
How they think
Answers to calibrated questions about real AI work: decisions, tradeoffs, what they chose not to do and why.
- 03
Work in the open
Projects with the reasoning attached. The artifact, not just the output.
How it works
Three layers. Zero guesswork.
AI Fluency Scoring
Every candidate answers four calibrated questions designed to reveal how they actually work with AI. We evaluate depth, specificity, and real-world application — because comprehension is what separates a builder from a button-pusher.
Human Review
Every AI assessment is reviewed by a human before a profile goes live. Scores can be adjusted, context added. No automation-only decisions about people.
Direct Access
Browse a curated directory of vetted profiles. Request introductions and connect directly. No recruiters, no middlemen, no noise.
Why it matters
Signal over noise.
Most talent platforms optimize for volume. We optimize for density. A smaller, curated directory where every profile has been evaluated for how effectively they leverage AI to multiply their output.
