Smart Chrome Extension for Job Seekers — Analyze job postings against your resume using AI, get match scores, extract salary & location data, auto-fill applications, and track every job you apply to.
Side panel analyzing a Senior Software Engineer role on Greenhouse — extracting job details, location, and salary in real time.
Upload your resume (PDF or DOCX) and let AI parse it into a structured profile. When you visit any job posting, click Analyze Job to get:
- Match Score (0-100) with color-coded indicator
- Matching Skills — what you already have
- Missing Skills — gaps to address
- Recommendations — how to improve your fit
- ATS Keywords — terms to include in your application
Detailed analysis results — matching skills highlighted in green, with actionable recommendations and ATS keywords to boost your application.
Automatically detects salary ranges and job location from the posting — works on LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, and more. Falls back to regex pattern matching when structured data isn't available.
Scans application forms and fills them intelligently using your profile and pre-configured Q&A answers. Handles:
- Text inputs and textareas
- Native
<select>dropdowns - Custom dropdowns (React, Angular, etc.)
- Radio buttons and checkboxes
Mark jobs as "Applied" directly from the side panel. Track all your applications in one place with score, company, location, salary, and date.
Applied Jobs tab — track every application with color-coded match scores, company details, and one-click delete.
Analysis results are cached per URL and use deterministic AI settings (temperature=0), so you get the same score every time for the same job posting. Click Re-Analyze to force a fresh evaluation.
