What SoapBoxGen helps you do

Resumes explain what you've done.
They don't always convey how you think, communicate, or show up.

SoapBoxGen gives you a short, guided way to introduce yourself —
before assumptions are made and before interest fades.

It's not a replacement for your resume.
It's a way to add context early, when it matters most.

1. Record a guided 30–40 second introduction

Clear prompts help you say the right thing without guessing.

2. Get a private, shareable profile link

Use it selectively — in outreach, referrals, or follow-ups.

3. Start conversations with context already established

So the first interaction isn't cold, abstract, or incomplete.

SoapBoxGen is designed for people who don't wait to be discovered —
they introduce themselves intentionally.

A message from the founder

After 19 years in recruiting, I've seen thousands of talented people get filtered out before anyone saw who they really were. SoapBoxGen gives you a way to show your personality, communication style, and authentic self in 30 seconds—before the keyword scan decides your fate.

— Richard, Founder

Where to use your video profile

Warm Introductions & Referrals

"Here's a 30-second intro so you know who I am before we talk."

Cold Outreach to Hiring Managers

Skip the recruiter screen. Send your video directly to decision-makers on LinkedIn or email.

Applications via ATS

Add your video link in the resume or cover letter. Give recruiters a reason to click.

LinkedIn & Professional Profiles

Stand out in searches. Let people see your communication style before messaging.

Career Fairs & Networking Events

Follow up with a video instead of a generic "nice to meet you" email.

Remote Job Applications

Show you're a cultural fit when you can't meet in person.

How it works

1

Real-Time Quality Coaching

Before you record, we check your lighting, framing, and audio. Get feedback like "Move closer to the camera" or "Face the window for better lighting" so you look professional without professional equipment.

2

Record Your 30-Second Intro

Answer guided prompts that help you showcase your communication style, personality, and what makes you different. Record as many takes as you need until it feels right.

3

Get Your Shareable Link

Your video lives at a custom link (like soapboxgen.com/yourname). Add it to your resume, LinkedIn, email signature, or anywhere you apply.

4

Share When It Matters

Use your video for cold outreach, referrals, applications, or networking. You control when and where it gets shared.

Addressing bias concerns

We know video introduces new bias risks. Here's how SoapBoxGen approaches this:

You Control When to Share

Your video is opt-in. You decide if, when, and where to use it. For applications where you prefer text-only screening, simply don't include the video link.

Built for Self-Directed Use

Unlike employer-mandated video interviews, SoapBoxGen is your tool. You create your video once and choose when it helps your case.

Authenticity Is the Goal

We believe showing your real communication style helps you find the right fit—culturally and professionally. The goal is not to hide who you are, but to show it on your terms.

Frequently Asked Questions

I've never recorded a video before. Will I look unprofessional?

That's exactly why we built real-time quality guidance. We check your lighting, framing, and audio before you record. You'll get feedback like "Move closer to the camera" or "Face the window for better lighting" before you hit record. Professional results without professional equipment.

When does SoapBoxGen launch?

Late February 2026. We're currently gathering feedback from job seekers to build the most useful version possible.

How much does it cost?

We're offering Founding Member pricing for early supporters: $29 for students and $49 for general public. This is a one-time payment for lifetime access—no subscription.

Can I record multiple times until I get it right?

Yes. Record as many takes as you need. You're in complete control of what gets published to your profile.

What if I don't want to use video for every application?

That's the point. You control when and where to share your video. Use it when it strengthens your case—like referrals, cold outreach, or remote roles where personality matters. Skip it when you prefer text-only screening.

Won't this introduce bias?

Video does introduce new considerations around bias. That's why SoapBoxGen is opt-in and self-directed. You choose when showing your communication style and personality helps your candidacy. For roles where you prefer anonymous screening, simply don't include your video link.
