A portfolio that works as hard as you do

Turn every job into your next one.

Trace CV is a living portfolio of your work — job photos pinned to the map, certificates tracked to the day, your full history in one place. It generates a professional CV on demand and shows employers exactly what you can do.

How it works

Three habits. One record
that lands work.

01 — LOG

Photograph the job

Snap as you work — every photo lands in an album, pinned to the exact spot you took it. Your portfolio builds itself, job by job.

02 — PROVE

Keep your record straight

Certs, tickets, quals and work history live in one wallet — with warnings before anything expires. Proof on hand whenever it's asked for.

03 — LAND

Win the next job

Generate a professional CV in one tap, or hand any employer a scan-to-view portfolio. Show them the work, not just the words.

Record — Job map

Every job, pinned where you did it.

Work photos are geotagged as you shoot and dropped onto a live map of everywhere you've worked. Tap a pin, open the album — a track record an employer can see at a glance.

  • Photos auto-pinned by GPS — or set a location per album
  • Bulk-import from your camera roll and sort into jobs
  • Multi-shot camera — keep snapping without leaving the app

Prove — Cert wallet

Certificates, tracked to the day.

Your CSCS card, tickets, first aid — every certificate scanned, filed and watched. Trace CV tracks each expiry date and flags what needs renewing before it costs you a day on site.

  • Valid, expiring soon or expired — status at a glance
  • Attach every page of a ticket — front, back, the lot
  • Share any cert straight from the card when someone asks

Land — Your CV

A CV that writes itself — from real work.

Everything you've logged — jobs, history, quals, certs — assembles into a clean, professional CV in one tap. Export the PDF, send it to an employer, or share your whole portfolio with a QR code they can scan.

  • Generated from your live record — never out of date
  • Three layouts: Classic, Modern, Minimal
  • Scan-to-view portfolio link — no login needed on their end

Learn — Education timeline

Building a record from day one.

Every qualification on one timeline — subjects and grades grouped under each award, proof attached.

  • Subjects & grades grouped under one qualification
  • Apprentices log coursework, projects and site hours as they go
  • The Educational plan is free — for students, trainees and career-starters
