  • Ghost Job Probability: Detects stale evergreen posts and hiring freezes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about safety, ATS compatibility, and subscription tiers.

Auto-Apply monitors active listings from supported job boards and evaluates them against your 5-dimension fit score. When a role clears your minimum score threshold (e.g. 85+), the engine extracts the job's stated requirements, drafts tailored resume highlights and a role-specific cover letter, and populates the employer's application form. It captures step-by-step verification screenshots and places the completed draft into your Approval Queue. It only executes submission once you explicitly review and approve it.
