RiseVault

Trust layer for real student work

Turn daily work into a trusted, verifiable résumé.

In the AI résumé era, trust has to come from real work.

RiseVault turns daily work into a continuous, structured record — ensuring résumés, portfolios, and AI tools reflect what actually happened. Used first by students, with a pathway to professionals. Students feel this pain first — recruiters and professionals benefit as verification becomes more standard.

What we're validating now

This early demo exists to validate behavior, not to ship a full product.

In this phase, we're focused on validating three core questions:

  • Will students actually record and lightly verify their work if the workflow is simple enough?
  • Does having more credible, grounded proof of work meaningfully affect internship and job outcomes?
  • Do verified, time-stamped logs increase trust for recruiters and admissions officers compared to a standard résumé?

Problem

Students produce meaningful work every day — projects, research, iterations, late-night fixes — but most of it disappears into chats, docs, or private repos. When it's time to apply, résumés are rebuilt from memory, and there's no reliable way for others (or AI tools) to trust what's written.

  • Real work gets lost across tools — nothing is tracked end-to-end
  • Résumés are rebuilt from memory instead of backed by evidence
  • AI makes exaggeration easier, and real trust harder to earn

Our approach

A trust layer built from the smallest unit: daily contributions.

We treat each contribution as a small, timestamped unit of truth. Verified logs roll up into an AI-ready résumé view and timeline — giving students a continuous history of work and giving others a reason to trust it.

  • Log real work in short, lightweight snippets
  • Lightweight verification from peers, teammates, mentors
  • Generate résumé bullets directly from verified history

How the demo works

This demo tests one thing: will anyone use Record → Verify → Résumé?

1
Record

Capture today's contribution in a sentence or two, with project context and a timestamp.

2
Verify & timeline

Mark entries as verified and see them roll into a clean, chronological timeline.

3
Résumé view

Generate summary bullets and expand to see the underlying verified logs.

Trust & verification

This version illustrates the essential loop of recording real work, lightly verifying it, and turning it into a trustworthy résumé output. The verification step is intentionally simplified, but reflects the real-world flow where teammates, mentors, or managers acknowledge a contribution's accuracy.

Verification isn't about policing—it's about giving others a concrete reason to trust your work.

1
Self-attested logs

Timestamped records created by the student — forming the foundational layer of trust.

2
Peer confirmation

A lightweight "verify" action representing acknowledgement from teammates, mentors, or managers.

3
Future extensions

Stronger verification via manager approvals, linked artifacts, and an auditable time-based history (roadmap).
