DevCard Concepts

Key terms you'll see throughout DevCard.

Fit Score
How well a candidate's skills, experience, and cognitive strengths align with a job's requirements. Uses structured ontology mapping, not keyword matching.
Confidence Score
How much verified evidence supports a fit score. More project details, linked accounts, and peer verification increase confidence.
Transferability
The ability for skills in one technology to apply to related technologies. For example, React experience transfers to Vue because they share component architecture patterns.
Cognitive Archetype
A developer's dominant problem-solving style, derived from patterns in their work history. Not a personality test — it reflects how they approach technical challenges.
Ontology
DevCard's structured knowledge graph of technologies, skills, and their relationships. It enables matching beyond keywords by understanding how skills connect and transfer.

What we know about pricing

Building your record and exploring your profile will always be free. Verification, advanced features, and your earned devcard.com/username will require a paid plan.

Why charge developers at all? Because if you're not paying, you're the product. We'd rather charge you honestly than sell your data quietly. That's the whole point.

Hiring teams pay separately for access to scoring, candidate matching, and structured evaluation tools. We'll introduce pricing when the product earns it.

Questions

When will pricing be finalized?

When we're confident the product delivers enough value to charge for. Not before.

Will early users get special pricing?

Yes. Beta participants will be taken care of.

What happens to my data if I stop using DevCard?

Your data is yours. Export or delete anytime. No lock-in.
