Questions

Is the ATS check free?

Tailoring and the Skills Audit are free. The detailed ATS Match Score is part of Pro.

Should I stuff my CV with keywords?

No — use the job's language where it honestly describes what you've done.

Truthful, tailored applications

Paste a job description and the copilot reorders and rewrites your own CV for it. You see every change, accept or undo it, and numbers that aren't in your CV or approved facts are flagged. A Job Fit report shows what lines up, what's missing and why.
