Companies

Profiles for the organisations in your story (employers, schools, your own startups, award issuers), each with a public page that collects your history there.

A company profile gives an organisation its own page at /companies/slug, with a logo, facts, links and your history with this company: the roles, education, products and awards you linked to it. Visitors get context; search engines get an Organization node that your worksFor and alumniOf data point at.

Create a company

  1. Open Content → Companies and click Add.
  2. Enter the name and, optionally, the legal name, tagline and a Markdown about.
  3. Add the website, a logo, the industry, the kind (Startup, Public company, Non-profit, University, Government, …), size, founded year, headquarters and status (Active, Acquired, Closed).
  4. Add specialties, a ticker if listed, a contact email and social links (LinkedIn, X, GitHub, Crunchbase, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, Wikipedia).
  5. Save. The page is live and a Companies grid appears on your About tab.

You can also create a profile inline from a role, degree, product or award form: start typing the company name and choose Create profile.

Link content to a company

In Work experience, Education, Products and Recognition forms, the organisation field is a picker. Choose a profile, or type a plain name and website for an organisation you do not want a page for. When a typed name matches a profile you already have, the form suggests linking it.

Linked items show the company name as a link with its logo. If you rename a company or change its logo, every linked item follows; if you delete a company, the items keep the name as plain text.

Limits

Up to 100 company profiles per site. Logos count against your storage.

Tips

  • Create profiles for the two or three organisations that come up repeatedly in your story; use plain names for the rest.
  • Your own startup deserves a profile even if it has no employees. The page becomes a small landing page with your products and journey.
