Kanvis vs LinkedIn.
LinkedIn is where people find you. A Kanvis profile is the page you send them next: your own URL, built from a conversation, where every entry links back to where you said it and the page can answer a recruiter's follow-up question the moment they think of it.
They work together. Put your kanvis.me link in your LinkedIn contact info and headline, and let LinkedIn do the finding while your Kanvis page does the convincing.
| What | A LinkedIn profile | A Kanvis profile |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | A networking feed with a profile attached. Everyone's page has the same shape, and yours competes with the feed for attention. | A standalone page at kanvis.me/you, built from your own record, with nothing on it but you. |
| What a claim is worth | Whatever you typed in. A skill is a word on a list; an endorsement is a click. | Every entry links to the conversation that created it. A recruiter can see where a claim came from, not just that it was made. |
| When a recruiter has a question | They message you and wait, or they move on. | They ask the page. It answers from your record, and only from your record, whenever they ask. |
| Applying to a role | Easy Apply sends the same profile everywhere and a form asks the same questions again. | On Kanvis, you apply by talking: a short interview built on what your profile already proves. You do it; Kanvis does not apply on your behalf. |
| Who owns the page | LinkedIn. The URL, the layout and what appears next to you are theirs. | You. You choose the handle, what is on it, and whether it is listed for search or reachable by link only. |
| Cost | Free, with a premium tier for reaching out and being seen. | Free for people looking for work. Hiring teams are the customer. |
Should I use Kanvis instead of LinkedIn?
Use both. LinkedIn is where recruiters look; Kanvis is the page that answers for you once they find you. The link belongs in your LinkedIn contact info, your headline and your email signature.
How is a Kanvis profile different from a LinkedIn profile?
You own the URL, every claim on it is traceable to where you said it, and the page answers recruiters' questions from your record. It is proof of your work, not a feed of it.
Can I import my LinkedIn into Kanvis?
Start from your résumé. Upload it, and a short conversation turns it into a profile you then correct and extend. Anything on LinkedIn that is not on your résumé, you add by telling the profile about it.
Does Kanvis apply to jobs for me?
No. Kanvis evaluates: it helps you show what you have done and answers questions about it. Applying is something you do, by talking, and every answer you give is yours.
