Moat, LinkedIn or a résumé? Often all three.
What each one is for, side by side. Where LinkedIn or a résumé does the job better, we say so.

Is Moat right for you?
An honest shortcut, so you don't have to guess.
Probably yes
- You use Club, Dium, joq or ewent
- You want one page other apps can show
- You run a small company or offer a service
Not yet
- Your search runs only through big job boards
- You need reach to millions of people this week
- You only ever need a PDF
Comparing, fairly.
Do I have to leave LinkedIn?
No. Most people keep both. Import your LinkedIn data to start your Moat page, and link to your LinkedIn profile from it.
Can Moat replace my résumé?
For many conversations, a link to your page is enough. When an application needs a document, download your page as a résumé PDF.
Keep what works. Add what travels.
Start your Moat page from your LinkedIn data in one sitting.
