See the truth
before you apply.

Three icons. Green flag, red flag, or ghost. What other candidates actually experienced at the companies you're applying to.

Here's what flags look like on a real job.

Three different scenarios. Scroll to see how they land on the job card.

Green flag

Fast process, real interview feedback, treats candidates well.

Red flag

Bait-and-switch role, lowball offer, toxic recruiter behaviour.

Sample data โ€” the real flags come from candidate votes you'll see live the moment you install.

How it works

Three steps. About sixty seconds.

01

Install the extension

Chrome extension takes 10 seconds. We never post, message, or connect on your behalf โ€” read-only on LinkedIn.

02

See flags as you browse

Job listings and company pages light up with a green flag, red flag, or ghost icon based on what other candidates voted.

03

Add your own vote

One click on any company page. Build a track record that helps every other candidate avoid (or find) the same employer.

FAQ

Honest answers.

Will I get banned from LinkedIn for using this?+

Petalon is read-only on LinkedIn. It doesn't auto-connect, auto-message, scrape your network, or perform any action LinkedIn flags as abuse. We only read the public job/company DOM you're already viewing and write votes to our own database.

Why pay for something I can just check on Glassdoor?+

Glassdoor tells you what current employees think. Petalon tells you what other candidates experienced โ€” applied-then-ghosted rate, rescinded offers, interview behaviour. It's the candidate side of the truth, not the employee side.

How do you prevent fake votes / brigading?+

Email verification gate, 24-hour grace period before votes go live, per-user rate limits, and we log every vote event so brigades are detectable and reversible. One person can't sway a company on their own.

What happens after the 5-day trial?+

Voting itself is always free. After 5 days you'll need a Basic or Pro plan to view aggregate flags. You can cancel anytime โ€” no clawbacks, no calls to a sales rep.

Do you support Indeed / Welcome to the Jungle / Greenhouse?+

Not yet. v1 is LinkedIn-only so we can do it well. Other boards land later once the model proves out.
