About
Proving is career intelligence for tech professionals. We measure your career on three pillars, all on the same 0–100 scale: Worth (what your work pays in the current market), Market (where demand for your role and skills is moving), and Fit (how your background fits where you want to go). The three roll up into a Summit Score, a proprietary composite derived from semantic depth analysis of your actual work, not surface features like keyword counts or certificate badges. Resistant to gaming by design.
Most engineers operate without an honest instrument for their career. Their resume is polished. Their perf reviews are green. Their actual market position has drifted further than they realize. The career tools available today are built for the recruiter side of the table. Nobody is building from the worker's side. We are.
Proving is a living profile, not a one-shot resume. You import your work history once to set a baseline, then keep it current as you ship things. A new project, a promotion, a new skill: log it, and the scores update. The product steers and diagnoses. We tell you where you stand, what's shifting under you, and what to close. You write the prose.
I'm Jon Daniel, the founder. I spent the last decade at Heroku scaling production data infrastructure (Postgres, Valkey, Kafka), promoted to Principal Engineer in 2025 before leaving to build this. I've also spent that decade being the friend engineers come to for resume reviews and career advice. Proving is the tool I wished I could hand to every one of them.
