I'm very aware of Triplebyte, but what we're building is different. Those startups focus on building recruiting and evaluation tools. The company is their primary customer, and a developer will probably only have a Triplebyte account for a limited period of time.

Fizbuz places the developer first, and we want to build tools for developers that help them manage their career and brand over the course of decades. We will work with companies looking to hire as a byproduct of helping developers accomplish a goal (i.e. getting a job).

Doing the right thing for the developer is our #1 principle. Which is why we will never implement anything like InMail.

Having a mission and sticking to it is something I relate to in a big way. I hear you on the InMail ban.

Do you think you'll eventually start building mentor networks?

One of the top feature requests we have is help finding a mentor. It's a key use case we want to enable.
