About Tenure

Tenure is the system of record for your career, for professionals who want to stay ready rather than scramble when a role opens.

Most people rebuild their career story from scratch every time they need it. Tenure is built on the idea that if you keep the record as the work happens, it's there when you need it.

A resume builder formats a document. Tenure keeps the record a resume is built from.

Instead of starting from scratch each time, you log your work as it happens, and every resume, gap analysis and interview prep draws on that record. Resume Factory also builds in the single-column structure parsers handle most consistently.

One place that holds the record of your work: what you delivered, the number if there is one, and the engagement it belongs to, kept as it happens rather than rebuilt from memory later.

Most professionals' records are scattered across old inboxes, review forms and projects they can't quite quantify anymore. Tenure keeps yours current, so the next update starts from what you wrote down, not what you remember.

Tenure was built for experienced professionals with a career history worth keeping. It works better the earlier you start.

If you're early in your career, starting now means the record is already there when you need it in ten years.

ATS stands for Applicant Tracking System: the software most employers use to screen and score resumes before a human ever reads them. When you apply for a role, your resume often goes through one of these systems first.

The problem: two-column layouts, text boxes and styled headers trip up many ATS parsers, and what sits inside them can be skipped without anyone telling you. Resume Factory builds single-column resumes, the structure parsers handle most consistently.

Tenure (owntenure.ca) is operated by Media Technology Consulting Group Inc. (mediaTCgroup Inc.), a corporation incorporated in Ontario, Canada. The platform was built by a senior enterprise IT program manager with 20+ years of experience across Canada's financial services, healthcare, and government sectors, someone who solved the same career documentation problem professionally before building it into a product.

Privacy & Security

No. Full stop.

Your career data, resume content, job descriptions, and session outputs are never used to train AI models or large language models of any kind: not Anthropic's, not ours, not any third party's. Your data exists on the platform to serve you, and only you. Tenure doesn't train models, and its account with its AI provider is set so that nothing is shared for training.

Tenure's database is Supabase's hosted PostgreSQL, stored in Canada. Everything travels over HTTPS, and every protected page and every server route that touches your record checks who is asking before it answers. Inside the database, every table that holds your record answers a browser request only from your own signed-in account, or can't be reached from a browser at all. Nothing in your record is shown to another account.

Yes, on request. Email info@mediaTCgroup.com and your data is exported by hand and sent to you.

Tenure hosts no advertising: no third-party ads, no ad networks, and no sale of your data to advertisers. That is a locked platform principle and it has not changed.

To let people discover Tenure, we advertise Tenure itself on platforms like LinkedIn. To measure whether those ads work, the site can run LinkedIn's Insight Tag, a measurement tool that loads only if you accept it in the privacy banner. Decline it (or ignore the banner) and it never loads, and the site works exactly the same. You can change your choice at any time through the Privacy choices link in the footer.

Beyond that, the only analytics collected are what's strictly necessary to operate the service.

Yes, on request. Email info@mediaTCgroup.com and your account and its data are deleted by hand. Some records outlast the deletion: our daily database backups hold a copy for up to seven days before it ages out, and Stripe, our payment processor, keeps its own record of any payment you made.

Your data is stored in a Supabase PostgreSQL database hosted in Canada (Central region). On the way there, requests pass through Tenure's servers in the United States, and when Tenure drafts from your words, its AI reads them outside Canada to do the job. Your words are never used to train any AI model.

Getting Started

Tap Start your free trial on owntenure.ca. Sign up with your email, or with Google or Microsoft. No credit card.

Your free trial gives you 14 calendar days of access to all five Modules (Resume Factory, Gap Analyzer, Assembly Session, BattleCard, and the Tool Filing Assistant) with no feature lockouts. AI-powered runs are subject to a per-day usage limit during the trial, but the Modules themselves are fully open.

The trial clock starts on the date you register and ends 14 calendar days later regardless of how much or how little you use the platform. No credit card is required to start.

Once signed in, your Dashboard is your home base. The main navigation takes you to each Module:

  • ›Resume Factory: tailored resumes built from your vault, and a place to upload a resume to start it.
  • ›Gap Analyzer: scores a job description and names what's missing.
  • ›Assembly Session: a tailored resume, an optional cover letter and interview prep, drafted from your record for your review.
  • ›BattleCard: a visual portfolio of your record, with talking points, a competency map and a force graph.
  • ›Tool Filing Assistant: where each tool and skill is filed against the engagement where you used it.

Each Module has its own page with step-by-step guidance built in.

Start with the resume you have. Upload it during onboarding or in Resume Factory, and Tenure drafts bullets for each engagement from it, so you don't start from a blank page.

From there, run the Gap Analyzer against a real posting, use an Assembly Session when you need a tailored resume, and look at your BattleCard before an interview. File tools and skills in the Tool Filing Assistant as you use them; it grows each time you file one.

Your Dashboard shows a summary of your recent activity across all five Modules (Resume Factory sessions, Gap Analyzer runs, Assembly Sessions, BattleCards built, and Tool Filing Assistant entries), so you have a clear view of what you've built and when. It's designed to give you a quick read on your platform activity at a glance.

Gap Analyzer

The Gap Analyzer compares a job description with your vault, or with a resume you paste, and names the required skills, qualifications and terms that are missing or thin. The result is a scored gap report, so you can decide what to address before you apply.

Paste the job description. By default, the Gap Analyzer scores it against the bullets in your vault and tells you how many it will use. To check a particular resume instead, choose Paste Manually and paste the resume's text. Either way, you get a scored gap report that names what's missing or thin.

ATS keywords are the specific terms, phrases, and qualifications an ATS parser looks for when scoring your resume against a job description. They can include job titles, certifications, tools, methodologies, and industry-specific language.

A resume that's well-written but doesn't use the same phrasing as the job description may score poorly, not because your experience is weak, but because the system doesn't recognize the match. The Gap Analyzer shows you where those mismatches are likely to be.

Yes. Your Gap Analyzer run history is stored in your account so you can reference previous analyses without re-running them. This is especially useful when tracking multiple job applications at the same time.

Resume Factory

Resume Factory builds tailored resumes from your vault, in the single-column structure parsers handle most consistently. Upload a resume there, or during onboarding, and Tenure reads it to start your vault.

When you upload a resume, in onboarding or in Resume Factory, Tenure reads it and drafts one to three bullets for each engagement. Tenure's drafting rule is to use only what your resume says, with no added figures or dates. You see a preview of what it drafted, and the bullets are saved to your vault when you confirm. Each Resume Factory session after that builds from your vault, so you're not retyping your history every time.

No. Resume Factory is focused on structure and ATS safety, not templates. The output is your content, organized and formatted to survive parsing. What makes it distinctive is you: your accomplishments, your metrics, your language. The structure is there so a parser can read it. The content is yours.

Most resume advice focuses on content. Tenure focuses on both, because great content that's invisible to the system never reaches a human reader.

Two-column layouts, text boxes, tables used for formatting, and styled section headers are among the most common culprits. ATS parsers handle these inconsistently or skip them entirely. Resume Factory builds output in the single-column structure that parsers handle most consistently.

BattleCard

A BattleCard is a visual portfolio of your record: talking points, a competency map and a force graph of the skills and tools you've filed against each engagement. It's built from what you've filed, so it grows as your record does.

For preparation aimed at one role, with likely questions, use the interview prep in an Assembly Session.

Any time you want to see your record at a glance, and before an interview, to look at the map of what you've done. It reflects what you've filed so far, so it says more once a few engagements are in.

Yes. BattleCard outputs are permanently stored in your account so you can reference them anytime: the night before an interview, during prep, or when following up. Your BattleCards are always accessible from your dashboard.

Assembly Session

An Assembly Session builds from your record: a tailored resume, an optional cover letter, interview prep with a Role Radar chart, and a Session Audit Certificate that records what was checked. You review everything before you use it.

When an Assembly Session drafts from your entries, Claude by Anthropic reads them to do it. Drafting follows Tenure's 15 Anti-AI Detection Rules, which govern the text Tenure generates. Review every draft before you send it.

Your data is never used to train the underlying model.

Yes. Assembly Session outputs are permanently stored in your account. They don't expire or disappear. Even if your subscription lapses, your saved outputs remain viewable. Your work is always yours.

The difference is structured input and protocol. ChatGPT starts from whatever you paste in. Tenure Assembly Sessions start from a systematically captured career history (accomplishments, metrics, context and scope), guided by a specific protocol that has been designed to produce output written to the same rules.

The result is targeted, substantive content that actually reflects your career, not a polished-sounding version of whatever you remembered to mention in a single prompt.

Tool Filing Assistant

The Tool Filing Assistant records where each tool and skill has been applied, filed against the engagement where you used it. It grows each time you file a tool or skill.

Your vault starts from the resume you upload, in onboarding or in Resume Factory.

Your vault holds the practical inventory of your work: software platforms, frameworks, methodologies, languages, certifications, and the tools you've actually used in real engagements. Each entry includes context: where you used it, how recently, and at what level of proficiency.

Proficiency uses an Expert Ladder with five levels: Watchlist (a tool you're tracking but haven't used yet), Aware (you understand it conceptually), Familiar (you've used it on some work), Proficient (you can deliver with it independently), and Expert (you can teach others). Skills don't stay static: the Tool Filing Assistant explicitly tracks decay, surfacing tools that are drifting toward obsolescence so you can refresh them before they leave gaps in your career story.

Yes. Your vault is shown to no other account. Nothing leaves your account unless you export or share it, apart from the text Tenure's AI reads to draft for you. It is never posted and never sent to advertisers or data brokers.

Vault content is never used to train AI models, Tenure's or those of the AI services Tenure uses to power its tools. The vault exists to serve you, and only you.

Plans & Billing

Tenure offers monthly and annual plans in both Canadian dollars (CAD) and US dollars (USD):

  • ›Monthly: $29/month
  • ›Annual: $199 a year, $149 less than twelve months of the monthly plan

Currency is automatically detected based on your location, though you can switch at checkout.

Your free trial begins the moment you create an account. No credit card required. You get 14 calendar days of access to all five Modules: Resume Factory, Gap Analyzer, Assembly Session, BattleCard, and the Tool Filing Assistant. The trial clock runs from your registration date and ends 14 days later regardless of how much or how little you use the platform.

During the trial, AI-powered runs are subject to a per-day usage limit, but the Modules themselves are fully open. When the trial ends, you'll be prompted to subscribe. If you choose not to subscribe, you retain read-only access to anything you generated during your trial. Your work doesn't disappear.

Yes. You can cancel anytime from your account settings. On the monthly plan, cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period: no prorated refunds, but no surprise charges either. On the annual plan, you retain access through the end of your paid term.

No penalties. No lock-in.

Your data remains in your account. Assembly Session outputs, BattleCards, and other saved work are retained and viewable even after cancellation; the platform moves to a read-only state for AI-powered runs, not a data-deletion state. If you resubscribe, everything picks up exactly where you left it.

Yes. All payment processing is handled by Stripe, a PCI-compliant payment platform. Tenure never stores your credit card information directly. All billing data is managed entirely within Stripe's secure infrastructure.

Your Account

Yes. You can sign in with Google or Microsoft, or with your email and a password. Use whichever you signed up with.

Use the "Forgot password" link on the sign-in page, and a reset link goes to the email address on your account. If you signed up with Google or Microsoft, sign in with the same button you used to sign up.

Your Dashboard shows a summary of your recent activity across all five Modules (Resume Factory sessions, Gap Analyzer runs, Assembly Sessions, BattleCards built, and Tool Filing Assistant entries), so you always have a clear view of what you've built.

You can start your trial on your phone. Tenure's workspace is built for a larger screen, so building your vault and running an Assembly Session are easier on a computer. It's the same account on both.
