 JobHelperGuru brings job analysis, resume matching, writing assistance, and application tracking into one workspace. Start with a job link or pasted description, compare your resumes against its requirements, draft tailored bullets and outreach, then track the application through to an outcome.
 
 Use the built-in heuristic engine without an AI key, connect your own compatible AI provider, or run a local model with Ollama.

 ## Deployment
 
-The multi-stage [Dockerfile](Dockerfile) builds the React frontend and serves it with FastAPI/Uvicorn. The [Render blueprint](render.yaml) uses `/api/health` for health checks and disables Render's automatic deployment.
+The public frontend is hosted on Vercel at **[jobhelperguru.vercel.app](https://jobhelperguru.vercel.app/)**. Vercel routes `/api` requests to the FastAPI backend running on Google Cloud Run.
 
-The GitHub Actions workflow can trigger a Render deployment after all required jobs pass on a push to `main`, when the repository secret `RENDER_DEPLOY_HOOK_URL` is configured. Container checks do not publish an image.
+The [GitHub Actions workflow](.github/workflows/ci.yml) runs backend tests, frontend tests and build, and both Docker build checks. When backend files change on `main`, a successful workflow builds and deploys the backend image to the existing Cloud Run service, then verifies the production health endpoint through Vercel. Frontend deployment remains managed by Vercel.
 
 For hosted persistence, configure PostgreSQL and R2 rather than relying on an ephemeral container filesystem. Set production mode, secrets, origins, public URL, and any Google sign-in settings before releasing.
