The job market feels broken. The silence is deafening.

You spend hours on applications. You interview. You follow up. Then, silence. No rejection, no feedback, no closure. Kēhua exists to provide transparency to this data, while providing a platform to keep on top of your applications.

of applications get no reply

Candidates invest hours. Employers stay silent. The asymmetry is total.

accountability mechanisms

Until now. There's never been a public, data-driven record of employer behaviour.

The walkthrough

See it in action.

Track an application, stay on top of follow-ups, and log the outcome — the whole loop, from your phone.

Real people. Real job searches.

They took back control.

Your job search. Your data. Your terms.

The stories above are illustrative, drawn from common candidate experiences — not real named individuals. On the platform your data is anonymous by default and never has to be public.

Start your own story

For candidates. Free, always.

Your search. Your record. Your terms.

One private dashboard. Every role, every follow-up, every silence, tracked. Your outcomes feed the public record anonymously. You stay private. The data holds employers accountable.

Track every application in one place

Follow-up reminders, never chase in the dark

How change actually happens

Every interaction
becomes a data point.

One person's experience is a story. A thousand people's experiences is evidence. Kēhua aggregates anonymous outcomes into a public record that tells the market exactly how employers treat people.

1. You apply and track

Log your application privately. Set a reminder. Note the outcome, responded, ghosted, rejected, hired.

2. Data aggregates anonymously

Your identity stays private. Your outcome joins thousands of others to build a statistically reliable picture of each employer.

3. The market becomes transparent

Employers are publicly ranked. The good ones earn trust. The ones who ghost face accountability. The market improves.

Questions. Answered.

Before you start.

Is it really free?
Yes — tracking your applications, follow-up reminders, and your private dashboard are free, always, with no trial and no card required. We may add optional premium AI features in future, but everything that holds employers accountable stays free.
Will employers know I logged or rated them?
No. Your tracking is private to you, and your outcomes feed the public record anonymously. There's nothing for an employer to trace back to you, so there's no risk of retaliation.
Do I have to make anything public?
No. Your dashboard is private by default. Only anonymised, aggregated outcomes contribute to employer rankings — never your name or individual record.
How does logging one application actually change anything?
One experience is a story; thousands are evidence. Your anonymous outcomes combine with others to build a statistically reliable picture of each employer, which becomes the public leaderboard employers care about.
How do you stop fake or biased data?
Rankings rely on volume and aggregation rather than individual reviews, and outcomes are weighted by check-in patterns — so a handful of angry or planted entries can't swing a score.
What if I applied through a recruitment agency, not the employer directly?
You can track it either way. Kēhua attributes the experience to whoever ran the process, so agencies are held to the same standard as in-house teams.
Can I delete my data?
Yes. You can request your data or removal at any time from your account settings.
