work in progress @trovewithin

I AM HIRING!!! 🥹🚨🤠 Fully remote with overlapping EST hours, pre-seed stage startup on a mission-driven team. (If you're Toronto based tho then maybe we can work irl together ~) More details: Trove is a new way to know yourself -- not just what you say, but what you do. It shows how you actually show up through gameplay — so you can find the people, work, and relationships that actually fit. There are a few roles open, but most immediately I am looking for: - an Executive Assistant (ideally starting April) - a Product Engineer (ideally starting May) Scrappy, curious, loves owning things, and doesn't need to be told what to do twice. Sound like you or maybe know someone!? All the details are in my hiring manifestos below. THEY ARE LONG BUT REQUIRED READING. 😅 Salaries are shown there too for transparency purposes. Would appreciate a share or a comment to boost!!

trove is an interactive fiction game meets personality quiz. but why this intersection? well, everyone sounds absolutely perfect on paper — especially now, paired with AI. someone can say they're kind... but are they actually nice to waiters? or just kind to people in their circle? does the person with the perfect resume actually mean they're gonna be good to work with? the looming pattern here is that that self-reporting is NOT a differentiator anymore. your behaviour (which is driven by your values and character) is your true unique human edge. how do you capture all this? how you think, how you react, how you make decisions? i do not believe it should be thru passive background surveillance. you as an individual should be an active participant. this should also be something that's owned by you, the individual. it shouldn't be locked on one platform. think about it like a portable digital identity. build your own behavioural model once, and plug it into all and any of the systems that you use. now you will prob be like OMG!! ads!! sell this data!! data is the moat!! well sorry to disappoint but i think that's one of the most boring things ever. not only do i think it's not good for the world, i also want to challenge you to think bigger. AI IS CHANGING SO MUCH HUR HUR. well why not envision a world that's changed for the better. instead of making money in the same old business models we have traditionally, what else is out there? what can a world where each of us is empowered to live their own authentic lives achieve? if we're in relationships with the right people, surrounded by friends that challenge and open our thinking in ways that we can accept, working in environments that truly support us? all this to be explored and we're thinking ads?? cmon now ~ anyhow, that's my brain dump. ty for reading!
