Set it up once.
Stay prepared forever.

Vigil works in the background so you never have to think about managing recruiting messages again. Here's exactly how it works.

The Process

Step 1

Connect Your Email

Click "Connect Gmail" and authorize Vigil using Google OAuth. We use Google's secure authentication so you never give us your password. The entire setup takes 30 seconds.

What happens:

  • You authenticate via Google's secure OAuth flow
  • Vigil requests read-only access to your Gmail
  • We only read messages that match recruiting patterns
  • You can revoke access anytime from your Google account
Step 2

Vigil Monitors 24/7

Our AI reads your incoming email, identifies recruiting messages, and automatically parses key information like company name, role, compensation range, and next steps.

What happens:

  • AI categorizes every message (recruiting vs. not recruiting)
  • Extracts company, role, location, compensation, and deadlines
  • Scores each opportunity based on your preferences
  • Tracks conversation threads and follow-ups automatically
  • Filters out low-quality spam and irrelevant outreach
Step 3

Act When You're Ready

Log into Vigil anytime to see all your opportunities organized and tracked. Review companies, compare offers, respond to recruiters, and schedule interviews—all in one place.

What you get:

  • Spreadsheet and kanban views of all opportunities
  • Timeline of upcoming deadlines and next steps
  • AI-drafted responses for your approval
  • Company research and compensation intelligence
  • Full conversation history with every recruiter

Security & Privacy

Your career data is sensitive. We take security and privacy seriously.

End-to-End Encryption

All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your emails and opportunity data are protected with bank-level encryption.

OAuth Only, No Passwords

We never ask for your email password. All authentication happens through Google OAuth, so you maintain full control and can revoke access instantly.

SOC 2 Type II Compliant

We follow industry-standard security practices and are SOC 2 Type II compliant. Regular third-party audits ensure we meet the highest standards.

Minimal Data Collection

We only read emails that match recruiting patterns. Personal emails, banking emails, and other non-recruiting content are never processed or stored.

Our Privacy Promises

  • We never sell your data. Ever.
  • We never share your data with third parties except as required for the service (e.g., AI processing).
  • You can export all your data at any time.
  • You can delete your account and all associated data with one click.
  • We only process data necessary to provide the service you signed up for.
