Upwork job radar: the right jobs, with a first draft ready

Problem

Good Upwork jobs go fast, and reading every new post to decide which ones are worth a proposal takes hours.

What I built

• Runs on a schedule, every few minutes, and pulls new Upwork jobs through Apify
• Skips jobs it has already seen by checking them against a Google Sheet
• Has Claude score each job for fit; jobs below the threshold are logged and go no further
• For jobs above the threshold, Claude estimates the project where needed and drafts a proposal, then a second pass rewrites it so it reads naturally
• Writes the job, score and draft to Google Sheets and posts them to Slack. A person reviews and sends; nothing is submitted automatically
• Sends a Slack alert if any step fails

Result

• Built in Aug 2026 and still running on my own account. No win-rate or volume figures are published.
