What it does

Every month: job postings in a sector across your cities, one per company, counted and summarised by xMap AI as a hiring index, saved to a sheet and emailed.

In one sentence: Monthly on the 1st at 08:00, in London, Dubai and Cairo, find companies hiring for “logistics”, remove duplicates, write a report with xMap AI, then add row in Google Sheets and email the list to you.

Why it is useful

Hiring is a leading indicator of growth. A monthly index shows where a sector is expanding.

The time it saves

Monthly on the 1st at 08:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 240 minutes each time; it runs about 1 time a month, so it saves about 4 hours a month (an estimate). It is medium: 7 blocks.
