Show HN: Parallax – See how exposed you are to AI disruption and make a plan(parallaxapp.world) |
Upload your resume, get an AI exposure score (0-100), then run simulations to see what happens if you: stay and upskill, pivot to adjacent work, or reset entirely. Year-by-year timelines. Trade-offs made visceral.
* The problem People know AI is disrupting careers. What they don't know is:
How exposed they specifically are, given their actual career history What their realistic options are — not generic advice, but paths modeled on their timeline What each option costs them in money, stress, and life satisfaction
* What Parallax does It's a flight simulator for your career. Not advice — consequence exploration. The flow (takes ~5 minutes):
* Upload resume → AI calculates your AI exposure score * Five-question interview (finances, learning appetite, stability preference) * LLM generates up to 9 futures: 3 strategies × 3 timing scenarios * Pick which paths to compare * Compare dashboard shows net worth, stress, fulfillment, AI exposure, drift
* Three recovery strategies:
1) Augment (blue): Stay, upskill with AI tools 2) Pivot (amber): Lateral move, lower AI exposure 3) Reset (purple): Start something fundamentally different
* Tech
Next.js 14 + TypeScript, LLM-powered No database — fully client-side (localStorage) Zero tracking. Your career data never leaves your browser. Privacy-first by design
* Pricing
Free: AI exposure score + interview + briefing Pro ($10/mo): Full compare dashboard + timeline exploration This app is compute intensive, so I added a paywall to pay for my compute costs.
