Improved

Clover gets sharper: stages, fewer canned refusals, mobile fixes

Three rounds of follow-ups on the Clover assistant we launched on May 11. Clover now reads your interview stages, so when you ask 'what stage am I at on my Anthropic interview?' it can name the actual step instead of saying it has no visibility. Off-topic and out-of-scope refusals used to return the same wall of text every time; each refusal category now carries multiple hand-written variants, and a small rewrite layer tailors the response to what you actually asked so two off-topic questions don't get the same answer twice. Self-account questions like 'what subscription am I on' no longer get misrouted, and short follow-ups like 'day pass or monthly' after a related turn are answered instead of refused. On the product map side, the broken /applications link Clover used to send people to now resolves to your dashboard. Mobile got two iOS Safari fixes too: tapping the chat input no longer zooms the page, and scrolling inside the panel no longer drags the page behind it.

Improved

Cleaner application paste flow

The Job Posting URL field on the new-application form is now hidden until you've actually pasted a job description. The old behavior tempted people to submit a URL alone, hoping we'd scrape it, and left them with an empty application. Now the JD textarea is the only thing in front of you on first load; paste anything past a short threshold and the URL field appears so you can attach it for the Apply Now button later. This applies everywhere the same paste form is used, including the New Application page, the New role dialog inside Tailor Resume, and the New role dialog inside Cover Letter. Weekly-match email links that prefill a URL still show the field immediately, so that path is unchanged.

New

Meet Clover, your in-product Four-Leaf assistant

Clover is a new AI job-search assistant that travels with you across Four-Leaf. Every page you visit, Clover is one click away in the bottom-right corner. It already knows your profile, your applications, your target role, and every tool inside the product, so you can ask questions in context instead of digging through a help center. Ask how to write a follow-up after an interview and you get a real answer. Ask how to tailor your resume and Clover routes you to the right tool with one line of context. Your conversation carries with you across pages, so the thread is still there when you switch from the job tracker to your resume. Expand the panel to half the screen when you need room to read a longer answer, then collapse it back to a chat bubble when you're done. Clover replaces the old bug and feature mailto buttons; bug reports and feature requests are now detected automatically from your conversation. This is the start of having a real coach inside Four-Leaf, with more coming.

New

Chat, copyable skills, and a voice pass on LinkedIn Optimizer

LinkedIn Optimizer gets an in-page chat box below the saved-profile summary. Four prompt-chip starters cover the common asks (add a job, rewrite About, pitch a pivot, suggest stronger skills), responses stream, and history persists so the conversation rehydrates on reload. The skills recommendation now renders as a list with a copy button per skill and a Copy all button at the top, so you can move suggestions into LinkedIn without reformatting. The About prompt no longer ends suggestions with the Open to roles or Currently exploring closer, and the full optimizer now runs through the same brand-identity and writing-style rules used elsewhere in the product. Light copy pass on the page itself rounds it out.

New

New

Mic test and silent-recording detection in Mock Interview Prep

Stops candidates from giving a full two-minute answer only to find the mic captured nothing. A new collapsible Test your mic panel mounts on both the standard and conversational interview intro screens, with a live waveform, a five-second test recording, and an inline transcript echo so you can confirm the mic works before you start. During an actual answer, an analyser samples the audio stream once a second. Ten seconds of continuous silence raises a dismissible warning, and twenty seconds auto-stops the recording with a toast prompting a mic check. If audio crosses the threshold before twenty seconds the auto-stop is cancelled. The test endpoint skips the daily voice-practice quota but still requires auth and rate-limits.

New

Instant application creation from a paste

Adding an application by paste now lands you on the detail page in 1 to 2 seconds instead of 5 to 15. /applications/new is a single-screen paste-and-go form. A fast Haiku pass pulls company and title so the row inserts immediately, then structured JD parsing and match scoring run async on the detail page in the background. The old two-step Extract then Review flow and the unused Manual Entry tab are gone. Edge cases handled: a bare URL still creates the application, a duplicate URL redirects to the existing one with a toast, and weekly-match email links that prefill URL and tab still work.

New

Manual Question mode for Mock Interview Prep

Type any interview question you've gotten or expect to get, and run it as a one-off. Add an optional role and level for a role-specific rubric, or leave them blank for a generic critique. Pick single-answer for a quick verdict or conversational for a back-and-forth that ends with a wrap-up offer (keep talking, get feedback, start fresh, or try another). A Haiku moderation pass blocks anything that isn't a real interview prompt, and a second pass suggests a polished rewrite next to the original so you can decide which version to practice against. Lives alongside Role Practice, Job-specific, and Common Questions on the Mock Interview Prep page.

Job Trends and a public companies directory

Two new public surfaces backed by the live scraped_jobs corpus. /trends shows aggregate hiring activity across 124k+ active postings: role volume by week, top hiring companies, salary distribution, remote vs onsite, and most-mentioned technologies. Each chart filters by role family and country, with URL params so views are shareable. Click any company on the chart to land on /companies/[slug] for that employer, where you can search and filter their open roles by title, role family, country, and remote-friendly status. /companies also hosts a directory of every company in the corpus (1,179 today) sortable by job count or alphabetically. The homepage gets a live-data section pitching the moat with a CTA into both surfaces.

New

Code Sprint: rapid-fire coding practice in six languages

A new mode for technical-screen prep. Pick a language and difficulty, rip through ten coding prompts in a row, and get a snap AI verdict between each (correct, partial, or incorrect) plus one specific improvement note. Built for volume, not depth. The full rubric still lives in regular Practice when you want it. Available in Python, SQL, JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, and C++. Sprint attempts feed the Interview Performance Dashboard alongside everything else.

New

Natural-language job search

Describe the job you want in a sentence. The search now reads everything in the box and figures out role, seniority, location, focus area, and employment type for you. Type things like 'senior data scientist in fraud, remote' or 'investment banking intern in NYC' or 'PM at a climate tech startup' and it pulls matching roles across our full data pipeline. Off-topic roles get filtered out rather than ranked lower, so a Senior Data Scientist search never surfaces a Head of Insurance role just because both mention 'risk'. Location handles metros intelligently: Brooklyn maps to New York, Palo Alto maps to San Francisco, Austin stays Austin. Resume pre-fill seeds the box with your last title, top focus areas, and location so you can hit search immediately. Filter panel is gone because the sentence is the filter.

New

Interview Performance Dashboard

A new dashboard at /interview-performance that tracks how you're improving across every practice session. See your score trend over the last four weeks, per-dimension breakdowns (relevance, specificity, structure, role fit, communication), voice delivery metrics (filler words, pacing, confidence), and an AI-synthesized list of strengths and focus areas. Every past interview is grouped by stage type with deep links back to the full debrief.

New

Roast your resume

Get a brutal, specific content critique of your resume in about 20 seconds. Not ATS keyword checking: an evaluation of what's weak, vague, or buried in your bullets, with high/medium/low severity ratings on every Experience bullet and a rewrite suggestion for each. Scores you 0-100 across five dimensions (impact and metrics, specificity, language, positioning, impact visibility) and hands you three fixes ranked by impact. One click pipes the results into the resume editor to apply them.

New

Launched Four-Leaf Research with the AI-Era Hiring Index

Issue 01 of a new quarterly research series. Snapshot of 3,502 open roles at 16 AI-native and high-growth employers (Anthropic, Stripe, Figma, Notion, Ramp, Scale AI, and more).

New

Conversational interview mode with real back-and-forth follow-ups

A new interview style where Clover asks 3 to 5 questions in a flowing conversation, follows up based on your actual answers, and delivers a single comprehensive debrief at the end. Choose a 10, 20, or 30 minute session. End whenever you want. Your score reflects the questions you actually completed, never the ones you didn't reach.

New

Resume templates, accent colors, and optional professional summary

Pick from 5 resume templates (Standard, Harvard, Modern, Executive, ATS Optimized), choose an accent color, and toggle an AI-generated professional summary on or off. Template and color selections persist per account and render the same in the live preview and the PDF download.
