Updates after the Will It Ship review

I joined the live Will It Ship session on October 22, where the judges reviewed Ghostlisted on stream. Honestly, it was one of the best moments of this hackathon for me. They liked the design, the UI, and the color system for the three lanes, which meant a lot, since I put a lot of care into making the report easy to read at a glance.

They also gave one very practical piece of feedback: long job posts don't fit in one screenshot. They were right. Real posts on LinkedIn and Facebook are often longer than one phone screen, and a checker that only reads half the post can miss the most important lines.

So I went back and fixed it. Here is what is live now:

  • Up to two screenshots per check. Add the top of the post first, then the rest. Ghostlisted reads them in order, and lines that appear in both screenshots are counted once.
  • No repeated lines across lanes. If one line looks like two kinds of problem, it now appears only in the most serious lane (Scam, then Fresher-mismatch, then Ghost).
  • A Bengali sample post in "Try a sample", so anyone can see Bengali support in one click.
  • 17 unit tests now cover the rules that check AI quotes and pick the next move.

Why two screenshots and not more: Groq's free tier allows 8,000 tokens per minute, and each image uses about 2,000. Two images is the most that fits while leaving room for the prompt and the reply.

The demo video was recorded before these changes, so you won't see them there. Everything above is live at https://ghostlisted.vercel.app

Thank you to the judges and the Devpost Learn team for the review. One comment from that session made Ghostlisted better than another week of building alone would have.
