The People Net

Product Introduction

1. Definition: The People Net is a SaaS-based personal website generator that transforms standard resumes into functional, hosted portfolio sites. It operates within the automated web development and personal branding tool category, leveraging document parsing and static site generation.
2. Core Value Proposition: It eliminates manual coding/design work for personal sites, enabling professionals to deploy SEO-friendly portfolio pages in under 60 seconds using existing resume content.

Main Features

1. Automated Resume Parsing: Extracts text, headings, and sections from uploaded resumes (PDF/DOCX) via OCR and NLP algorithms. Converts unstructured data into structured HTML/CSS templates without user input.
2. Instant Subdomain Hosting: Generates live sites on custom subdomains (e.g., username.thepeoplenet.com) using AWS S3 for storage and Cloudflare CDN for global access. Implements SSL encryption via Let’s Encrypt.
3. Pre-Built Responsive Templates: Uses minimalist, mobile-responsive Jinja2 templates with schema.org markup for SEO. Auto-optimizes images and enforces lazy loading via JavaScript.

Problems Solved

1. Pain Point: Reduces hours spent manually building portfolio sites or wrestling with CMS platforms like WordPress. Solves inconsistent personal branding and poor online visibility for job seekers.
2. Target Audience: Technical professionals (developers, data scientists), freelancers, academics, and executives needing rapid personal sites for networking or job hunting.
3. Use Cases:
   • Deploying a shareable portfolio link during job interviews.
   • Creating academic profile pages for conference submissions.
   • Building freelance pitch decks directly from CVs.

Unique Advantages

1. Differentiation: Unlike Wix/Squarespace (manual drag-and-drop) or GitHub Pages (coding required), it automates 100% of site creation. Outperforms LinkedIn by offering full design control and custom domains.
2. Key Innovation: Patent-pending resume-to-website conversion engine that maps resume sections to optimized UI components in <10 seconds, using proprietary layout algorithms.
