What you get
Everything to write a strong CV, nothing more
No 100 features you'll never use. Just the tools that truly make a difference between 'unread' and 'invited'.
PDFs that HR software can actually read
More and more employers let software screen CVs before a human sees them. All our templates were tested with Workday, Greenhouse and Lever and were read without problems. Some other systems occasionally read columns mixed together. Want to play it safe? Then pick one of the 4 single-column templates.
AI profile text in one click
No more writer's block. AI reads your work experience and writes a profile text in 3-4 sentences that makes your value crystal clear.
Stronger bullets with AI
Paste a weak bullet, get 3 strong variants with measurable results and action verbs. Recruiter style, no marketing blah.
Live A4 preview
See exactly what the recruiter gets, while you type. No surprises at download. What you see is what you send.
Certifications
Add safety certificates, first aid, your driving licence or diplomas in a dedicated certifications section. Employers in tech and care often screen for these first.
PDF for €2, no subscription
Click, pay with iDEAL, get your PDF instantly. No monthly costs, no invoice surprises. €2 in, PDF out.
Import existing CV
Drop your old PDF or Word file in. We extract name, jobs, education automatically. 30 seconds later you continue in a fresh template.
Privacy by design
No account and no storage of your CV on our servers. Your data stays in your browser. Only when you use the AI help or upload an existing CV do we send the text temporarily to our AI provider to produce a result. We don't store that text ourselves.
Matching cover letter
Included with every €2 download. Paste the job posting, pick one of 5 writing styles, and AI writes a personal letter based on your CV. Unlimited letters for 1 hour.
Recruiter behaviour
A recruiter decides
in 6 seconds.
Is your CV ready?
Eye-tracking research shows recruiters look at a CV for 6-7 seconds before deciding. They scan specific elements, but most CVs fail at this.
- Name and current job title: instantly visible and prominent
- Most recent employer and dates: findable within 2 seconds
- Concrete achievements with numbers, no generic task descriptions
- Clear structure, with low cognitive load

What we check in every PDF
Past the first filter
Get seen before the
recruiter reads your CV
Big employers often let software screen CVs first, sometimes 9 out of 10 large companies. If your CV doesn't pass that first filter, no recruiter sees it. No matter how good you are. (this software is often called an ATS, or Applicant Tracking System)
- All 10 templates tested with Workday, Greenhouse and Lever
- Standard section names so software recognises them
- No images or photos in the PDF
- Text that computers can read inside the PDF
