Why now

AI is making human skills worth more.

Work is changing fast, and the skills employers value most are human ones: judgement, adaptability, leadership, creativity. Hiring on skills could open the door to far more people. The catch is proof. When AI can polish any CV, the strongest evidence is a real person who saw you do the work. That's what Cite records.

39%

of workers' core skills are expected to change by 2030. Analytical thinking, resilience and leadership top the list.

Where it fits

Not another LinkedIn.

Cite works alongside it. Add your Cite link to your profile, CV and applications. Plenty of companies have tried to replace LinkedIn, and we're not one of them. Anyone who opens your link can see who vouched for you and what for.

How it works

Your CV in, proof out.

Five steps, and you stay in control of every one. Nothing leaves your account until you share it.

  1. 1

    Talk it through

    Twelve to fifteen minutes in the Identity Lab, or upload your CV. You get a Signal Card drawn from your own words.

  2. 2

    Verify it's you

    A quick ID and face check. We keep the result, never your ID images or biometric data.

  3. 3

    Get Cited

    Ask people who've seen your work to vouch for one specific thing you did. They're verified too.

  4. 4

    You approve

    Nothing goes out without your say-so. Pick which Cites appear, and make any private again.

  5. 5

    Share your proof

    Send your link to an employer or recruiter. Anyone can open it without signing up.

Real screens

Built and live. Not a mockup.

Cite's How you work with AI screen. You rate yourself as emerging, applied or leading at being AI-fluent and AI-critical, and back it up with one real example. AI can suggest wording, but you review it before saving.
Show how you work with AI
Back it with one real example. AI suggestions are optional.
Cite's Request a Cite screen. You choose what Priya should cite you for, such as Bridge Builder or Systems Thinker, and add a short message reminding her where she saw it.
Ask for a Cite
Pick a human signal like Bridge Builder, and remind them where they saw it.
A Cite recommendation for a demo candidate, Casey Nolan, put forward for a finance data analyst role. It shows what they were cited for (Systems Thinker, Builder, Curious Learner) with a line of real evidence under each.

Who it's for

Anyone whose CV undersells them.

Whatever you do for a living. How you solve problems or bring people together matters in every job.

Starting out

A Cite from whoever supervised your placement or Saturday job says more than a list of hobbies.

Experienced and overlooked

Years of delivery an automated filter skims past. Cites put named people behind your record.

Changing direction

Your skills carry across sectors. Evidence from people who watched you use them makes the case.

Neurodivergent

Spiky profile, solid proof. Cite looks for evidence of what you did, not how well you sell yourself.

Talent

Your signal, verified.

Build your Signal Card, collect Cites from people who've seen your work, and share one link.

Who's behind it

Anthony Magee

Founder, Cite

More than 15 years leading data and AI teams at Xero, BT, WPP and Argos, and coaching people who went on to lead teams of their own. I built Cite because good people keep getting overlooked, and the proof of what they can do sits in other people's heads rather than on paper.
