Take a look at https://tarta.ai we launched recently. Tarta monitors jobs and matches you with the best ones. Also Tarta helps to organize an interview (no scheduling email ping pong anymore) and even pass an interview (depends on a job).
Tarta is currently focused 100% on remote programming, qa, product, designer and sales jobs but might expand our focus in future to other industries too.

@NickMacario I'm noting that some product hunters are a bit miffed about the fee -- any chance at a 1 or 3 month trial for early adopters to prove the value?

2 million+ - can you prove that?

Excellent timing just as I become available for a couple of days per week. :-)
Signed up, applied for a couple of positions. Just one thing, one of the position's 'Apply' button linked through to a completely different site and listing. Having seen the comments below about having to subscribe before applying, this came as a surprise. Was that a bug, or has somebody worked out how to circumvent your rules?

One month on and I have the following thoughts:
1: The price is too high. You can create your profile for free (read that as remote.com gets your data for free) but the cost, if you want to apply for jobs, is too high, especially as it's set up as a subscription.
2: Many of the jobs are not remote at all or may be remote but specify a geographic location.
3: Several listings that I viewed seem to have been scraped directly off other sites. To pay $19 for the ability to apply for a job only to find that the "apply" button takes you another, free, site is a bit galling.
4: The AI aspect is pretty useless. After spending about an hour filling out my profile with my 20+ years of IT and tech experience, the final straw was an invite to apply for a job as a Front Desk Receptionist. (That got me checking the date, but no, it was sent on March 31st, not April 1st)
Conclusion, they get your data for nothing, the fees for added value are too high and the added value isn't that valuable when you do pay for it.
I'll probably delete my account if I ever find out how.
Like the rest of the guys here, created a profile(1 hour) and just now wanted to apply for job and boom $20 per month. Your business model sucks, but that is OK, other competitors will capitalize on that.
P.S. I got really mad this is why I came to PH to share my 2 cents.
I paid 19$ to apply for jobs, after three days using it I received a message saying that you can only apply to 10 jobs. First you hide that you have to pay to apply and then it's not explicit that you have a limit...

Got an email that I had an invite on Remote. I'd never signed up for Remote, so I clicked to unsubscribe and it sent me to a log-in screen.
After reading comments it sounds like they have had issues with transparency, including their business model and prices.
Nothing peeves me more than getting emails from services I never signed up for.
Great platform and kudos to the team. I am still trying to figure out how the pricing works. Seems like a little bit of a turn off since I didn't see anything related to pricing while signing up. But after good 15 minutes of work, I was prompted to choose a plan. Something the team should look into.
Otherwise seems like a great platform overall 🙌
