After setup, you don't operate it. It finds roles, matches them to your resume, answers every question, sends the application from your Chrome and matches the employer's confirmation, over and over, with Autopilot on. Anything only you know waits under Needs you, and every answer is logged for you to read.
Yes. It is a screen recording of the extension sending three of the founder's own applications (PlayStation, Twilio, sweetgreen) on 13 Oct, with nobody at the keyboard. Waiting is sped up; typing, Submit and each employer's confirmation play near real time. The inbox further down is real too: employer confirmations in his Gmail.
It applies from your own Chrome, on your own connection, a few at a time and never two on the same site, with spacing between sends. It never uses captcha solvers or proxies. If a site emails a security code, it reads the code and enters it, like you would.
They receive a normal application from your browser, with your real resume and your real email. Some sites (Workable, for example) label applications they think were AI-assisted. The answers are written from your own resume, and you can read every one.
Yes, if you want. In review mode nothing goes out until you approve it. You can also open any application on the employer's site already filled in and press Submit yourself. With Autopilot on, it sends matches above your score threshold, and every answer is still logged.
No. The PDF you upload is attached to every application exactly as it is.
It creates your account on each employer's Workday site with a generated password you can see in Settings, opens the verification email, and works through every page of the form.
Chrome has to be open for the extension to send. It works in background tabs, so you can keep using your computer, or leave it open overnight.
It runs only on job application sites and on Understudy. If you're signed in to Gmail in the same browser, it checks for employer security codes, verification links and confirmations. Only counts and timestamps from that leave your browser.
US and remote roles posted in the last seven days, from 21,000+ company job boards. It doesn't scrape LinkedIn or Indeed. Paste a LinkedIn link and it finds the original posting.
No. At most three applications to one employer a month, at least three days apart, never the same role twice.
Anytime, in one click, and you keep your plan until the end of the period. Partial periods aren't refunded except where the law requires it. If a charge looks wrong, email us and we'll sort it out.
It applies to jobs for you, and every answer it wrote is yours to read.
