Is this worth doing?
Who is this actually for?
People applying to a lot of jobs, where tailoring each resume is real work. It assumes you already have a track record to draw on: a few roles, things you actually did. If you're writing your first resume and have nothing to put in a library yet, this isn't the right tool.
Does tailoring your resume for each job actually matter?
Yes. It's about the least controversial advice in job hunting. A posting is a list of what the employer wants, and the resumes that get read are the ones that answer it in the posting's own words. Doing that by hand costs about ten minutes a job, which is why most people send the same resume everywhere and hope.
Can't I just ask ChatGPT to do this?
You can, and the first draft looks great. The trouble is it doesn't know which parts of your history are real, so when the posting asks for something you don't have, it writes you one. It also forgets you between chats, so every job starts over: paste the resume, paste the posting, explain again what it got wrong.
How do I know it isn't making things up?
It can't write new facts. It can only choose from the library you built and approved. Every bullet on a finished resume is marked verbatim (word for word from your library) or adapted (reworded to fit this posting). Click an adapted one to see the original next to it, with a button to put it back. If a line can't be traced to anything, it's marked in red instead of quietly left in.
Isn't using AI on a resume dishonest?
Inventing things is dishonest. Choosing which of your real accomplishments to lead with for this particular job is what a careful applicant already does by hand. This does that part faster, and it keeps a record of where every line came from.
How it works
What's the setup like?
Upload whatever resumes you have, or paste anything else you've got: an old LinkedIn export, a brag doc, notes from a project. It pulls out your roles and accomplishments and shows you all of them, so you can fix the wording and uncheck anything wrong. Then it asks a few questions about the thin spots. You do this once, and every resume after that is built from it.
What if my resume is thin, or I don't have a good one?
There's a guide in the app for building a full career document first. You hand your history to ChatGPT or Claude, let it interview you for half an hour, and bring the result back here. It's the slowest part of the whole thing, and it's worth doing properly.
What is the ATS score, actually?
A model reads your draft against the posting the way a screening system would. It scores four things out of 25 each: keyword match, role alignment, quantification, and formatting. Below 80 it tries again on its own, swapping in different accomplishments from your library to cover what's missing. It's a check on the draft, not a promise about any one company's software.
What can I change myself?
All of it, free. Rewrite a bullet, drop it, reorder it, swap which accomplishments appear, change the opening line, switch between four layouts, and export as many PDFs as you want. Editing never calls the AI, so it never costs anything.
Will the PDF survive an applicant tracking system?
That's what the four layouts are for. All of them are single column, with no tables, no sidebars, no graphics, and no text trapped inside an image. Those are the things parsers reliably mangle.
Cost, data, and the rest
What's a credit?
One pass through the AI: generating a tailored resume, or asking it to revise one. Editing, exporting, tracking, and re-checking the ATS score are free and unlimited. You get 25 credits when you sign up.
What if the resume it makes isn't right?
Edit it by hand for free, or tell it what to change in plain words, which costs a credit. If a bullet reads badly in one resume, it will usually read badly in the next. The better fix is in your library: change it once there and every resume after that picks up the change.
Do I need the Chrome extension?
No. It saves you a copy-paste on job sites, and on application forms it can fill in the fields native autofill misses: LinkedIn URL, work authorization, the EEO block. Pasting the posting text by hand gets you exactly the same resume.
What happens to my career data?
It's stored in your account, and it's sent to the AI provider only to do the work you asked for. They aren't allowed to train on it. It isn't sold or shared otherwise. Delete your account and it goes with it. The privacy page has the specifics.
