  • Top matches appear first, with the score badge color-coded Excellent / Strong / Decent
  • "Why this score" panel breaks down skills, seniority, industry, location, and ghost-job risk

One-Click Apply

The Browser Extension Fills the Form for You

Open the approved job's application page. The Chrome / Edge extension detects the page, attaches your tailored resume + tailored cover letter, and auto-fills your name, email, phone, EEO disclosures, and most custom questions. You review and click Submit.

  • Supported ATSes: Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, Ashby, SmartRecruiters, Recruitee — plus a generic fallback for most others
  • You always click Submit — the extension never auto-submits
  • Custom-question answers are cached after the first manual fill, so application #2 at the same employer is faster than #1
  • Submission is logged automatically to your Applications page with status pipeline (Submitted → Response → Interview → Offer / Rejected)
  • Track conversion rates by industry, role, and match-score band on the Analytics page

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before getting started.

How does the search work?

There's one search, built around your résumé. Upload it once and the AI scores every job in our 2.6M-row index — 49,000+ companies — against your resume and persona, then surfaces the best matches on your Find Jobs page. From there you refine by title, industry, location, work arrangement and posted date, and the AI handles synonyms and seniority variants so you never have to guess keywords. Results, filters, and apply links all live on the one Find Jobs page.

How does persona-driven matching work?

During onboarding you answer 8 short questions (target titles, industries, locations, work authorization, salary band, company sizes, experience level, and optionally a voice sample). Combined with your parsed resume, that becomes your "persona" — an embedding the AI scores every job against. The match score blends resume fit (75%) and persona alignment (25%) into a single 0-100 number with a "why this score" breakdown.

How do I review and apply to matches?

Everything happens on the Find Jobs page — there's no separate queue. High-match jobs from your searches and your saved-search daily runs appear in your results with a preview cover letter ready to read. You approve the ones you want, and full tailoring (cover letter + per-job resume re-weighting) kicks off on approval. Each result shows match score, skill alignment, and an AI cover-letter preview, and the apply link is right there for one-click apply via the extension.

What does the Chrome / Edge extension do?

The browser extension detects when you're on an application page on a supported ATS (Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, Ashby, SmartRecruiters, Recruitee, plus a generic fallback that handles most others) and auto-fills your name, email, phone, EEO disclosures, and most common custom questions — and attaches your tailored resume + cover letter. You review the filled form, edit anything you want, and click Submit yourself. The extension never auto-submits.

How does AI title matching work?

When you enter a title like "VP of Sales", the AI automatically searches equivalents — "Regional Vice President", "Head of Sales", "RVP Sales", "Area Vice President", "CRO", "Chief Revenue Officer" and more. Same for engineering: "Software Engineer" picks up "SDE", "Software Developer", "Backend Engineer", etc. You never miss a match just because a company uses different wording.

How do daily email digests work?

Save any search and we re-run it every night. The morning email lists only the new postings that scored above your threshold — no "nothing new today" spam. If you've also turned on auto-discover for that saved search, the high-match items surface on your Find Jobs page with preview cover letters ready, so you can approve from your phone before your first coffee.

Do I need to upload my resume to get started?

Yes — Resume Match is built around scoring jobs against your resume + persona, so the resume is the first onboarding step. We support PDF, DOCX, and plain text. Parsing takes about 5-10 seconds. You can re-upload anytime and the next search re-scores against the latest version.

Is there a free trial?

Every signup gets a 7-day free trial — the Pro tools with a 10-search cap, no credit card. When the trial ends, upgrade to Pro for $29/month for unlimited searches, AI tailoring, persona match scoring, and the browser extension.
