PursuitCI's answer

Mid-career professionals navigating a job search — especially those who've been laid off — along with anyone underserved by traditional hiring. These are experienced people doing everything right who get filtered out by automated systems before a human ever sees them. PursuitCI is built to give them a fair shot.

TranscriptFetch's answer:

Developers and technical teams building on video and web content. The common cases are RAG and retrieval pipelines that need video as text, AI agents that need to read a link mid-conversation, content teams repurposing short-form video at scale, and media monitoring and research tools. It is an API first, so the buyer is usually the person writing the integration rather than an end user. The free browser tools exist for one-off transcripts and for evaluating output quality before writing any code.

PursuitCI's answer

React, Node.js, Supabase, Stripe

TranscriptFetch's answer:

Next.js with TypeScript and Tailwind on the front end and API layer, Clerk for auth with SHA-256 hashed API keys, Neon Postgres with Drizzle ORM, Redis for caching, and Stripe for billing. The extraction layer is a Python and FastAPI service. Speech-to-text uses Whisper-class models. The MCP server is published in the official Model Context Protocol registry with a DNS-verified namespace.

PursuitCI's answer

PursuitCI is built specifically for people the hiring system overlooks, especially those who've been laid off. Instead of treating job seekers as keywords to filter, it helps them get past automated screeners and reach real people. It combines in one platform:

Smart job search across thousands of roles AI-assisted resume and cover letter tools built to pass ATS filters An AI career advisor A free ATS resume checker An application tracker and employer research directory

Plus a reduced rate for recently laid-off users.

TranscriptFetch's answer:

Most short-form video has no caption track to download. TikTok’s auto-captions are opt-in per upload, Instagram never publishes a downloadable track, and many captions on both are burned into the video frames where no parser can read them. TranscriptFetch transcribes the audio when no caption track exists, on the same endpoint, with the same response shape. Your code never branches on which method produced the text. It also covers YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X and Facebook plus any web page as clean Markdown, so a pipeline spanning several sources is one integration rather than five.

PursuitCI's answer

Most job-search tools focus on just one piece — resumes or tracking. PursuitCI brings the whole job search into one place:

Search across thousands of roles AI-assisted resume and cover letter tools designed to pass ATS filters An AI career advisor A free ATS resume checker An application tracker

It's also mission-driven and accessible: a free plan, and a reduced $9.99/month rate for anyone recently laid off — because rebuilding a career shouldn't cost full price.

TranscriptFetch's answer:

Three reasons. Coverage: one API key and one response shape across five video platforms and the open web, instead of stitching together a library per platform. Reliability: requests run through rotating infrastructure, so code that works locally keeps working from a server, which is where most open-source approaches break. Billing that matches reality: one credit per successful response, with failed, blocked and empty results never charged. That last point matters on short-form video, where a meaningful share of any batch is music with no speech in it. There is also an MCP server, so AI agents can fetch transcripts as a tool without a custom integration.

PursuitCI's answer

PursuitCI was founded by Mario Fallon after watching layoffs sweep through his industry and leave talented, experienced people without the tools or support to recover. He saw good people doing everything right and hearing nothing back — filtered out by automated systems before anyone looked. He built PursuitCI to give them what they needed and couldn't find: tools that work for the person, not against them. The belief behind it is simple — everyone deserves a fair shot.

TranscriptFetch's answer:

It started with discovering there is no good way to get the text of a video. YouTube’s official Data API will confirm a caption track exists and then refuse to hand it over, because captions.download requires the video owner’s OAuth token. The popular open-source libraries work until you deploy them, at which point platforms start refusing datacenter IPs. And YouTube is the easy case: TikTok and Instagram publish no caption file at all. Every workaround solved one platform, worked locally, and broke in production. TranscriptFetch is the version that handles the failure cases as first-class behaviour rather than edge cases.
