LayoffToLiftoff

The AI Executive Function Assistant
That Actually Gives a Damn About Your Life

Not just another job search tool.
The first career recovery platform that protects your brain, health, and family.

Executive Summary

The Problem

262,000+ tech workers were laid off in 2024. The job search takes 3-6 months on average. But the REAL problem? Tech workers' brains never shut off. They check LinkedIn at 2 AM, apply to 100+ jobs weekly, neglect health and family, and burn out before they even interview. The harder they try, the worse they do. 85% report severe burnout and anxiety during their search.

The Solution

LayoffToLiftoff is an AI Executive Function Assistant that becomes your external brain during career transitions. Every day, AI scans 500+ jobs, picks top matches, tracks everything, and sends you ONE simple message: "Here are your 3 tasks today. Do these, then STOP." Meanwhile, the system FORCES life balanceโ€”auto-blocking family time, exercise, sleep. You can't burn out because we won't let you.

The Opportunity

$75B career services market. 400K+ tech workers laid off yearly. Millions more in other industries. Nobody else does thisโ€”they all add MORE stress. We're creating a new category: Holistic Career Recovery. Year 1 target: $900K revenue. Year 2: $8.7M. Exit potential: $50M-$250M in 3-5 years. We're not building a tool. We're building a movement.

The Origin Story: PP's Journey

PP is a Mumbai-based senior engineer. Brilliant with n8n automation and TTS systems. When he got laid off, something happened that his wife Hannah couldn't ignore:

  • ๐Ÿง  His brain never shut off. 2 AM LinkedIn scrolling. Analysis paralysis. Constant optimization mode.
  • ๐Ÿ˜ฐ His health declined. Blood pressure spiked. Sleep disappeared. Exercise stopped.
  • ๐Ÿ’” Family suffered. 12.5-hour time difference meant he was working when they were awake, sleeping when they needed him.
  • ๐Ÿ”„ The harder he tried, the worse he did. More applications = more rejection = more stress = worse interviews.

Hannah watched the man she loved disappear into job search anxiety. She thought: "What if an AI just... handled all of this? What if it forced him to rest, spend time with family, and stay healthy while automating the chaos?"

LayoffToLiftoff was born from love, built for PP, designed for millions.

"This isn't just a business idea. This is personal. I watched my husband suffer. No one should have to choose between landing a job and staying human. We're building the tool PP needed. Now it helps thousands."
