Why you can send it
Anything can generate a paragraph about you. What matters is where the words came from, who approved them, who can see them, and how sure the system claims to be. Here is all four.

What keeps the output honest
Four commitments, and the mechanism behind each one.
Sources link to every claim
Open any claim in your portrait and you can see the document or story it came from, and when it was last confirmed. If a detail cannot be traced back to something you gave Idynic, you should not send it.
You review and edit every output
Your biographer drafts; you decide. Every resume, letter, and answer is editable before you use it, and nothing is submitted on your behalf.
Extraction, not invention
Idynic uses AI to identify structured facts in the material you give it. The model is prompted and constrained to extract from your material, not to invent experience, and confidence scores flag the claims that rest on thin evidence.
Private until you share it
Your portrait is private to your account. Recruiters and hiring managers see only what you send them through a link you generate, and you can revoke any shared link at any time.
You own the data
Your documents, parsed data, and profile history belong to you. Export them or delete your account whenever you want. We do not sell your personal data to recruiters or third parties.
Read the privacy policy and terms for the binding versions of the storage, deletion, and sharing commitments above.

How confidence scoring works
The scoring internals, for anyone who wants them. None of this is something you have to think about to use Idynic. For the full engineering account, including retrieval weights, the match arithmetic and which model runs each step, read how Idynic thinks.

The Confidence Score
Every skill and achievement in your portrait carries a Confidence Score, a measure of how well you can prove it. The stronger your evidence, the higher the score.
Confidence is calculated from two factors: quality of evidence (a performance review weighs more than a self-written resume) and recency (recent experience carries more weight than older experience).
Think a score is too low? Tell your biographer a story. Walk through a project, explain the context, describe what you built. Stories become evidence, and evidence raises confidence.
Keeping confidence current
Evidence ages, and the scoring says so: an exponential weighting curve gives recent evidence more pull than older evidence, so the portrait reflects what you can back up now. This is a statement about the evidence on file, not about you. A new story or document about the same work brings the score straight back up.

Half-Lives by Evidence Type
| Type | Half-life | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Skill (tool or framework) | 4 years | Technology stacks and best practices evolve rapidly. |
| Achievement | 7 years | Business impact is durable, but market context changes. |
| Skill (competency) | 15 years | Architecture, leadership and strategy do not expire like a framework version. |
| Attribute | 15 years | Core character traits (e.g., leadership) are stable. |
| Education | ∞ | Degrees and foundational knowledge do not expire. |
| Certification | ∞ | Credentials are permanent; expiry is tracked separately. |
