Your Remoet developer profile is the thing you point recruiters and AI agents at when you want them to know what you actually build. It's free to create, lives at remoet.dev/u/your-handle, and takes about five minutes to set up.

Here's the current walkthrough.

Step 1: Sign in

Head to remoet.dev/onboarding and sign in with GitHub or Google. Either works. The account is free, no credit card required.

After sign-in you land on the onboarding flow. The first useful thing on that page is your auto-generated MCP API key, which you can copy and use later if you want to drive your profile through an AI agent instead of through the web UI. Skip past it for now if you just want to fill in the profile manually.

Step 2: Claim your handle

Pick a slug for your public profile URL. If you take john, your public profile lives at remoet.dev/u/john. Slugs are unique and first-come-first-served, so grab the one you want before someone else does.

You can change visibility settings later, but the handle itself is permanent once it's yours.

Step 3: Fill in your profile

You can do this two ways. Pick whichever sounds less painful.

Through the web UI. Go to your profile settings and fill in:

  • A short summary of who you are and what you build

  • Work history (companies, dates, what you actually shipped)

  • Projects (with links to the live thing or the repo)

  • Education (optional, but helpful)

  • Skills and tech stack (this drives matching across the platform, so be specific)

  • Links (GitHub, LinkedIn, personal site, anything else worth pointing at)

Allow about 15 minutes if you've never done this before, less if you're copying from an existing CV.

Through your AI agent. If you set up the MCP connection on the onboarding page, you can do the same thing in conversation:

"Update my summary to say I'm a senior backend developer with 8 years of experience in Go, PostgreSQL, and Kubernetes."

"Add a work experience entry. I worked at Acme Corp from 2022 to 2024 as Staff Engineer. I led the platform migration to Kubernetes and reduced API latency by 40%."

"Add Go, PostgreSQL, Kubernetes, Terraform, and Redis to my skills."

The agent reads your input, normalizes the structure, and writes it back. The classic "I should update my profile but I never do" problem solves itself when the cost of an update drops to one sentence. See the full agent walkthrough for the rest of what's possible from inside a conversation.

Step 4: Make it public

By default your profile is private. When you're ready to share it, flip visibility to public from the visibility settings. Your profile is then live at remoet.dev/u/your-handle for anyone who has the link.

You stay in control of what's public versus private at any time. Toggling back to private hides the page immediately.

Step 5: Share it

Put the link on your CV. Pin it on GitHub. Drop it in your email signature. The profile updates whenever you update the underlying data, so you're not maintaining two versions of your career history that drift apart.

For a richer shareable surface, check out link trees — a dev-flavored Linktree-style page that pulls from your profile and tracks views and link clicks. Free tier gets one link tree; paid tiers get more.

What you can do once your profile exists

Once you have a populated profile, the rest of Remoet starts working:

  • Search companies by tech stack that overlaps with your skills, then star the ones you'd actually work for

  • Get weekly digests of new roles from your starred companies

  • Connect an AI agent that uses your profile to surface job matches and track applications without you bouncing between tabs

The profile is the foundation. Everything else assumes you've told the platform what you build.

FAQ

Is the profile free?

Yes. Profiles, the public page, weekly digests, agent connection, all free across every tier. Paid plans unlock real-time job data, more stars, and more link trees, but the profile and the platform's core loop work the same on free.

Can I keep my profile private?

Yes. New profiles start private. You only go public when you choose to. You can also toggle back to private at any time.

Can I edit my profile through an AI agent?

Yes. Generate an MCP API key from your onboarding page, connect Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, or Claude Web, and update your profile in conversation. Same data, different interface.

Where does my profile live publicly?

At remoet.dev/u/your-handle once visibility is public. The URL is permanent for the handle you picked.

What if I want to give you feedback or report a bug?

Drop into Discord. I read everything. The platform is built in a feedback loop with the people using it; the most useful thing you can do as an early user is tell me what's working and what isn't.
