## Ways to pay less

- **50% off with yearly billing** (Annual discount): The pricing page shows each paid plan at half its monthly price when billed annually, for example Starter at $15 a month instead of $30. Source: https://www.resumly.ai/pricing

## Key features

- **Autopilot applications:** Server-side workers find matching jobs, tailor a resume and submit applications daily, with a monthly cap per plan (360 to 1,800 jobs).
- **Tailored resumes and cover letters:** Creates an ATS-oriented resume and cover letter per posting from your base resumes; paid plans allow 5 to 20 base resumes.
- **Job matching and fit scores:** Scores how well a posting fits your experience, shows gaps against the description and lists the matches it found.
- **Free resume checks:** Free tools include an ATS resume checker, a resume scanner, a skills-gap analyzer and a LinkedIn profile generator.
- **Application tracking:** Tracks applications and a recruiter inbox; Accelerator and Max add email outreach to recruiters.
- **Interview practice:** Mock interviews with feedback, plus a Windows Copilot for live interview support, metered in minutes on paid plans.

## Good for

- Job seekers who want applications sent daily without doing each one by hand
- People who keep several base resumes for different roles
- Candidates who want a free ATS check before paying for anything

## Worth knowing

- Plan prices shown first are the yearly-billed ones; monthly billing costs twice as much per month.
- The free plan caps applications at 6 a day and only 2 lifetime Copilot sessions of 15 minutes.
- The pricing page's results ranges are labeled illustrative, not a guarantee of interviews.
- Applications are sent by automation, so each tailored resume and answer needs checking by you.

- **Free plan and trial: C.** Free forever with no card, but it caps you at 6 applications a day, 1 base resume, 1 search query and 2 lifetime Copilot sessions. You will hit it.
- **Features: B.** Autopilot applications, tailored resumes and cover letters, job matching, free resume checks, a tracker and interview practice. The pricing page's results ranges are labelled illustrative, not a promise.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Resumly you would be making an AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.4 is higher than 16 of the 24 other resume builders we grade. It costs $180 a year.

- You could make: Resume builder: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: An AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it.
- You could not: Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
- You could not: Apps for Windows and iOS that stay in step with each other.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
