The report card
Best for a free resume with no watermark
FlowCV is a resume builder where the free plan gives 1 resume and 1 cover letter with every template and watermark-free PDFs. Anything past one resume, plus the AI writing tools and the Job Tracker, needs Pro at $5 a month billed yearly, and it is web only.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | B | Pro is $5 a month billed yearly ($60), inside the cheaper quarter of resume builders, which starts at $7.95. The free plan covers the basics. |
| Free plan and trial | B | 1 resume, 1 cover letter, all templates and unlimited PDF downloads with no watermark, with no card. One person with one resume could live on it. |
| Features | B | Templates and design controls, import, cover letters, AI writing and translation, and a job tracker. Nothing in the listing is missing from the job of a resume builder. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record. It is a web app where you build the resume yourself. |
| Platforms and integrations | C | A web app only. No phone or desktop app is named, and no integrations are listed. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who FlowCV is for
- Fits if you need one resume and one cover letter and want to download without a watermark

- Watch out: the pricing page lists a web app only, with no mobile or desktop apps

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
The plain part of FlowCV you could make: resume builder, templates and documents. What surrounds it you could not. The 2 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.6 is higher than 19 of the 24 other resume builders we grade. It costs $60 a year.
What you could make
- Resume builder, templates and documents: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. FlowCV’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
