AI-assisted job application co-pilot Smart Apply sits in the middle — between blasting out AI spam and spending hours rewriting everything by hand. You stay in control. It does the heavy lifting. Open any job posting, click Scrape, and Smart Apply reads the role for you. It scores how well you fit, highlights your strongest angles, then writes a tailored CV and cover letter for each job in seconds — using your real experience, never inflating your years or skills to match the JD. You review and can edit everything before it goes anywhere. ── HOW IT WORKS ── 1. Paste your preferred AI API key in Settings (one-time setup) 2. Open any job listing and click Scrape 3. Get an honest fit score with green flags and gaps 4. Generate a tailored CV and cover letter 5. Refine in chat, export to PDF, or fill the application form directly 6. Track the application through every stage from applied to offer ── KEY FEATURES ── • Works on LinkedIn, Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, Amazon Jobs, and more • Fit score (0–100) with plain-English analysis of your strengths and gaps • Tailored CV and cover letter in seconds, kept to 1–2 pages — honest, not hallucinated • Chat refinement — tell Claude to rewrite a bullet, adjust tone, or cut a section • Essay and free-text question answers generated from your profile • PDF export with auto-named files (surname-company-cv.pdf) • Form fill — maps your profile into application form fields automatically • Application tracker — log every role, track status (applied → interviewing → offer → rejected), add notes, and snapshot your documents • Full document history with pagination • Custom profile fields — add anything that doesn't fit the standard fields (notice period, right to work, visa status, etc.) ── 100% PRIVATE ── Smart Apply has no server. Your profile, API key, and documents are stored locally in your browser using IndexedDB. The only external calls are directly from your machine to Anthropic's API — nothing passes through us. ── BRING YOUR OWN API KEY ── Smart Apply uses your own AI API key. There is no subscription, no account, and no middleman. Typical API costs for a full application (CV + cover letter) are a few cents. ── OPEN SOURCE ── Smart Apply is open source under the MIT licence.
