Job Board Aggregator with Salary Transparency for Remote Tech Workers
Remote tech workers search 10+ job boards (LinkedIn, Indeed, AngelList, Hacker News, WeWorkRemotely) and rarely see salary ranges. RemoteOK on IH built a remote job board. The wedge is a job aggregator that pulls remote tech jobs from all major boards, normalizes them, and enforces salary transparency, filtering out listings without salary ranges and ranking jobs by compensation clarity, creating the go-to search for remote workers who refuse to interview without knowing the pay range.
Problem Statement
A senior frontend developer searches for remote roles. They check 6 job boards over 2 hours. Of 200 listings, 120 don't show salary. They apply to 10 that look promising. After 3 interviews with no salary discussion, they discover 2 roles pay 30% below their floor. They've wasted 6 hours of interviews on roles they would have immediately filtered out if salary was visible. They want a single search where every listing shows the pay range — so they never waste time on roles below their floor.
The Idea
A job board aggregator for remote tech workers that normalizes listings from 10+ sources and filters out jobs without salary ranges, creating the only job search where every listing shows the pay.
Why Now
Salary transparency laws expanded to 12+ US states and the EU Pay Transparency Directive takes effect in 2026. Despite this, 60% of tech job listings still don't include salary ranges. Remote workers are particularly disadvantaged because they can't use local salary norms as anchors. RemoteOK proved remote job aggregation is a $1M+ business.

Meeting Recording Auto-Chaptering and Searchable Transcript Engine for Zoom
Enterprise teams on Zoom waste hours manually reviewing hour-long meeting recordings to find specific decisions or action items. Buyer reviews consistently cite poor recording search, lack of chapter markers, and no way to jump to key moments.
