Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.4
GPA, above 16 of the 24 other resume builders we grade
Simplify is a job-search platform that combines a resume builder and scorer with a browser extension that autofills job applications and a tracker for the applications you send. A paid tier, Simplify+, adds Autopilot, which tailors a resume to each posting and submits applications for you.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Simplify, taken from its own pages and our grades.
The extension needs installing and an account connecting.
- 1
Best for autofilling job applications from your browser
Simplify is a job-search platform with a browser extension that autofills applications, a tracker and a basic resume builder, all free.
- 2
Paid plans start at $86.62 a month
As its pricing page puts it: $19.99 per week, billed weekly (App Store; monthly $39.99).
- 3
There is a free plan
Job matches, the Copilot autofill extension, the application tracker and a basic resume builder, which the site says it keeps free.
- 4
It runs on 2 platforms
Web and iOS, with a browser extension too.
- 5
Copilot autofill
A browser extension fills application questions from your saved profile on over 100 job boards and application portals, including Workday, Greenhouse and Lever.
- 6
Resume score and tailoring
Scores your resume against a job description, names missing keywords and suggests rewritten bullets that you accept line by line.
- 7
Autopilot
Tailors a resume, writes a cover letter, fills in the application form and submits it on your behalf. It is part of the paid Simplify+ tier.
- 8
A 2.4 GPA, above 16 of 24
That is against the other resume builders we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 9
Keep it
The plain part of Simplify you could make: resume builder and templates. What surrounds it you could not. The 4 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.

The report card
Best for autofilling job applications from your browser
Simplify is a job-search platform with a browser extension that autofills applications, a tracker and a basic resume builder, all free. Autopilot, which sends applications for you, needs Simplify+ at $19.99 a week or $39.99 a month on the App Store, and payments are non-refundable once activated.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | D | Simplify+ is $19.99 a week, $39.99 a month or $89.99 for 3 months on the App Store. Even the 3-month price works out near $30 a month, above the dearest quarter of resume builders ($26.66). |
| Free plan and trial | B | Autofill, the tracker, job matches and a basic resume builder are free, and the site says it keeps them free. One person could live on that. |
| Features | B | Autofill, resume score and tailoring, Autopilot, a tracker, job lists, cover letters and answers. Autopilot is paid only. |
| Ease of use | C | The iPhone app shows 4.3 from 35 ratings, too few to count (we need 300). The extension needs installing and an account connecting. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web, an iPhone-only app and a browser extension, with Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, iCIMS, LinkedIn and Indeed on the list. |
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 Simplify is for
- Fits if you apply to many jobs and want the forms filled in for you
- Works for people who only need the free autofill and tracker
Who it is not for
- Pricey if you want Autopilot, as Simplify+ starts at $19.99 a week on the App Store
- Skip it if you want a refund later, since Simplify+ payments are non-refundable once activated, apart from a 24-hour window for unintended renewals
- Watch out: the Simplify+ prices here are the App Store ones, as no web price could be read
- Watch out: the iOS app is iPhone only
- Watch out: 4.3 from 35 App Store ratings is a thin record
Good to know
Good for
- People sending many applications who are tired of retyping the same details
- Job seekers who want one profile feeding resume, tracker and autofill
- Applicants who want a resume score checked against each posting
Worth knowing
- Autopilot, which submits applications for you, is part of the paid Simplify+ tier.
- The Simplify+ prices read here are the App Store ones; the web price was not found on a page we could read.
- The refund policy says Simplify+ payments are non-refundable once activated, apart from a 24-hour window for unintended renewals.
- The iOS app is listed for iPhone only; the extension and website cover desktop.

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 Simplify you could make: resume builder and templates. What surrounds it you could not. The 4 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
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 $1,039.48 a year.
What you could make
- Resume builder and templates: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- A real app for iOS. Something home-made would be a web page.
- It plugs into other products, Workday, Greenhouse and Lever among them.
- 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. Simplify’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.
