Build your work index

Link to work you can show, or describe experience you can’t link to, then share one page someone can read before talking to you. No account or public portfolio needed.

Public material only. This is not a hosted account.

Nothing is saved until you choose to save in this browser. Share links contain a readable, fixed copy: anyone with the link can read or forward it. You cannot revoke or update copies.

Privacy, saving and link limits

Do not include confidential details, other people’s personal information, signed URLs or access tokens. Browser history, clipboard, browser sync and recipient tools may retain copies. from.work does not receive the index in the URL fragment; hosting providers still receive ordinary page requests.

The link is not a private token or an identity check. Anyone can change their copy. Keep the full link; some services may truncate long links.

Find your work

Search public sources for work you may have made, then pick the pieces that are yours. Results are leads: a name or account match does not show you wrote or led anything, and it is not an endorsement. Nothing is added, saved or shared until you review it.

Fill in any one or more. A name is the weakest signal and can match other people; an iD or handle you control is better.

What each site sees

Your browser sends each value straight to the site that needs it: your name to OpenAlex; your iD to ORCID and OpenAlex; your handle to GitHub. They also see your IP address and have their own policies. from.work does not receive or store what you type, and keeps no search history. These sites are not searched until you press the button.

      Add a work link

      Your shared index shows the link and your description, not a copy of the original. Adding a card does not publish it.

      Use a public website, report or project. The commissioner must be able to open it without an account. We do not fetch, verify or copy its content.

      Most work is internal, confidential or never published.

      Describe your contribution

      This appears under “Experience”, labelled self-declared, with no link to inspect. Describe the kind of problem you worked on, not your employer’s confidential details.

      See how this card will appear

      Draft preview · not added, saved or shared. Missing fields are marked below; they are not filled in for you.

      The link, title, contribution, context and limits will be visible. The checkbox below is not part of the card. This does not add work to members.from.work or enroll you in a group.

      No reference shared

      A public URL is not permission to copy its content, an endorsement, or proof of your contribution. Do not add reference quotes here. Permission for private use is not permission for public sharing.

      Your professional introduction

      Selected work

      Up to six pieces of work or experience, in the order you add them.

      Save keeps your introduction and added cards on this browser/device only. Unadded form text is not saved. Anyone using this browser can edit it; clearing browser data loses it. Editing does not update links already shared.

      Ask someone to speak to a piece of work (optional)

      from.work does not collect or display references yet, and never contacts anyone. This writes a polite request for you to send yourself. The person answers in their own words, and every card stays “No reference shared” until they have said yes to being quoted. Names and contact notes here live only in this open page: they are not saved, not in share links and gone on reload.

        Share this snapshot

        The link carries a readable, unencrypted copy of everything above. Anyone with it can view it without signing in. It can’t be revoked or updated, and the originals may later move or disappear.

        Open shared page ↗ (new tab)

        If copying is unavailable, select the whole link and copy manually. Long links may not fit every messaging service. Save the full link in your own approved tools as a portable copy.

        About this snapshot

        A fixed copy carried in this link, not a live or hosted profile. It may be outdated, and anyone with the link can forward or alter their copy. No identity, authorship or rights checks have run; from.work does not certify these claims.
