Getting started
From blank page to a tailored résumé.
A practical, step-by-step walkthrough of your first session. You will set up a résumé, sharpen it with a partner, tailor it to a job, and score it before you apply — with every word still yours.
Know your way around
Everything for a résumé lives on one screen, organized into a few simple panels. The document is in the middle, your tools on either side.
Sections
- Summary
- Experience
- Skills

Sections
Summary, Experience, Education, Skills, and Projects in one list. Set each section's type and drag to reorder.
Resume Insights
A deterministic linter that flags weak verbs, filler, buzzwords, repeated openers, and a low quantification rate.
Version history
Every draft is saved automatically. Compare any two versions and restore an earlier one in a click.
Section Focus
Zoom into one section with its own history and an AI chat that only sees what matters.
Your first session, start to finish
The path most people take on day one. Move through it in order, or jump to the part you need.
Create or import your résumé
Every project starts with a résumé. Begin from a blank page, pick a template, or paste in work you already have.
- Start from scratch, or paste an old résumé or a wall of rough notes
- AI structures it into a clean header, titled sections, and bullet lists you can edit
- Pick an export template — your content stays the same, the layout changes
- Sections are typed automatically as Summary, Experience, Education, Skills, or Projects

Organize your sections
Strong résumés are easy to scan. Give each section a type, put your strongest work up top, and let the Timeline build itself from the dates you add.
- Reorder sections and bullets by dragging — strongest first
- Set a section type so Insights and Review know how to read it
- Dates on Experience and Education feed an automatic Career Timeline
- Find & Replace fixes a job title or recurring phrase across the whole résumé

Write and sharpen in the editor
The assistant lives inside the page. Reshape any line, or let AI tighten a passage in place, and keep only what you like.
- Highlight a line and Smart Rewrite offers sharper takes — accept, tweak, or ignore
- Select any passage and AI Enhance tightens it in place: active voice, concrete results
- Resume Insights runs as you type, the same way every time — no vague AI vibes
- Your voice never gets overwritten; the words stay yours
Responsible for managing the product roadmap and the team.
Owned the product roadmap end-to-end, aligning 4 teams to ship 12 releases in a year.
Focus a section with scoped chat
When you want a second set of eyes, zoom into a single section. The chat there has read only that section, so the feedback is specific, not generic.
- Open Section Focus to work on one section at a time
- A scoped AI chat sees only that section's content and its history
- Ask for a punch-up, a tighter opener, or stronger, quantified bullets
- Drop any suggestion straight into the section with one click

Tailor to a job
On the Apply tab, paste a job description and Merit shows exactly how your résumé stacks up — then writes a cover letter grounded in it.
- Job Match scores your résumé against the posting, out of 100
- See matched keywords, and add the missing ones to your Skills in a click
- Get concrete tailoring suggestions for this specific role
- Generate a cover letter grounded in your résumé — one saved per application

Review, export, and track
When the draft is solid, score it, send it, and keep every version. One pass surfaces what a recruiter and an ATS will see.
- Run a Review for an overall score plus ATS readiness, impact, clarity, and completeness
- Export to PDF, DOCX, or Markdown for any application
- Version history keeps every draft, so you can compare and restore anytime
- Move each résumé through a simple board: draft, ready, applied, interviewing
Review

Resume Insights
Deterministic checks on every keystroke — weak verbs, filler, buzzwords, quantification.
Section Focus
Work on one section at a time, with its own scoped AI chat.

Beyond your first draft
Once the basics feel natural, these are the tools that carry a finished résumé the rest of the way.
Work as a team
- Invite your organization and edit the same résumé in real time
- Roles from Owner to Editor, Viewer, and Guest keep control where it belongs
- Version history keeps every change tracked and reversible
Export anywhere
- Export to PDF, DOCX, or Markdown
- Switch export templates without touching your content
- Duplicate a résumé to spin up a tailored version per role
The right model, automatically
- Each rewrite is routed to a model that fits it, no provider to choose
- New models become available as they ship, with no lock-in
- You focus on the words, not on managing AI
