Resume tool pricing: subscriptions versus credits
Resume tools offer subscriptions, one time plans and credit packs. We sell credits. This guide explains what each model buys and helps you compare the options against how many applications you plan to make.
The two models
What a subscription buys and what a credit buys
A subscription buys time
A subscription buys access for a period. You pay the listed amount for each billing period, month to month or for a longer term paid up front, and during that period you can use whatever the plan includes, as often as the plan allows. Access runs for the period you paid for.
What a plan includes is set by each tool. Check the provider’s current pricing page for document limits, included features, and the period you are paying for.
A credit buys one deliverable
1 credit creates one deliverable, a tailored resume, a cover letter, a mock interview, an outreach set, or an upskill plan. Credits never expire. Once 4 credits are spent on one job, everything else on that job is free.
A credit is a unit of work, not a unit of time. You spend one when you generate a deliverable, and the ones you do not spend stay in your account until you do.
Example: a resume alone is 1 credit, and a full application on one job is 4 credits, after which the rest of that job’s kit is free. Our packs are on the pricing page.
Compare your options
Before you choose a plan
Count the resumes and letters you expect to make, then check each provider’s current pricing page. Compare the total payment, the billing period, document limits, and whether downloads and revisions are included. For credit packs, check how many credits each task uses.
The honest answer
When a subscription is the right choice
A month to month plan can be the right choice for you. If you expect to produce a large number of documents in a short stretch, say a dozen or more tailored resumes and letters every week for a month or two, a flat monthly price for that period may suit that pace. Check each plan’s inclusions to understand what its price covers.
Credits suit a search that comes in bursts: a few applications this week, none the next, and a balance that is still there when you come back. Which model fits depends on how many documents you will actually make and how evenly. Count that first, then compare the available plans.
What we do not do
We do not auto apply
Nothing here submits an application for you. You read every document, decide whether it is right, and send it yourself.
We do not scrape LinkedIn
The browser extension clips the job listing you are looking at, and your own profile only when you ask it to. It never reads anyone else's profile or acts on your network.
We do not invent claims
Every line in a resume we write is compared with the background you gave us, and the report shows you what it was compared with. AI drafts can contain unsupported details, even after source checks. We compare wording with the background you provide; we do not independently verify your work history or credentials. Review every statement before using your documents.
First resume free, no card. 1 credit = one deliverable: a tailored resume, a cover letter, a mock interview, an outreach set, or an upskill plan. 4 credits on one job unlock the rest. Credits never expire.
