About

Built so students stay ahead of AI.

Dilly is a career app for verified college students. We exist because the generation entering the job market right now is the first whose entry-level work will co-exist with AI from day one. They deserve a tool built for that.

Why Dilly exists.

The career advice that worked five years ago is breaking. AI is rewriting which entry-level tasks have value, and college career centers can't keep up. A student today gets about six minutes of advisor time per year. That's not enough to plan a career through an inflection point this big.

Dilly is the AI advisor we wish we'd had. One living profile of you, three Moves, a monthly read on where your field is heading. Free to start. Honest by default.

"The point isn't to read about AI and your career once. It's to keep a live read on where you stand and stay a move ahead, every quarter, in the field that's actually yours."

What Dilly is not.

Dilly is not a resume editor. It's a profile-first system. The resume is one of three outputs (along with the field read and the fit read), not the product.

Dilly does not assign you a score. Scores compress real situations into a number that hides what you should actually do. Dilly gives you a narrative read instead: Ready, Almost, or Gap, plus the specific thing to fix.

Dilly does not invent. Every word on a resume Dilly writes traces back to a real fact you've told it. The Truth Ledger enforces this. No hallucinated skills, no fabricated bullets.

Who builds it.

Dilly was founded in 2026 by Dilan Kochhar, a Data Science student at the University of Tampa. Dilly was started and built from a dorm room. The mission was simple: build the career tool a student in 2026 actually needs, not the one career-services tooling vendors are still selling.
