Projects Yard

Hey Product Hunt 👋 We built ProjectsYard as CMU students after running into the same 3 frustrations again and again: -> We spend hours crafting portfolios that few people ever stumble across, and even fewer read deeply. -> Everyone has strong projects, but there’s no single discoverable place to showcase them -> One-Page Resumes reduce months of real work into a few shallow bullets. Recruiters scan fast and often miss strong signals because projects are scattered across resumes, GitHub, and portfolio links. From a Product Lens, this is a system problem, not a talent problem. ProjectsYard started as a side project to answer one question: What if hiring began with real projects instead of keywords? So we focused on three things: -> Standardize how projects are explained. A consistent, structured format across candidates. -> Design for recruiter scanning. Surface impact, skills, and outcomes first. -> Make candidates discoverable. AI-powered search & matching using real work, not keywords. This is not a design-first portfolio tool. It is a hiring-focused product built to improve decision quality for both candidates and recruiters. If you’re a maker, we’d love to know what’s hardest about showcasing your work today. If you’re a recruiter, we’d love to know what signals you actually trust. Thanks for checking it out — excited to hear your thoughts!
