I made a web app that generates resumes and cover letters for free

Hacker News

I wanted to share a project I've been working on since October '24. It's an AI-powered toolkit designed to help job seekers shorten their job hunt and advance their careers. The idea came from my own experiences and frustrations with the job application process, both as a job seeker and a hiring manager. I wanted to simplify and streamline how people present their skills and experiences to potential employers. By leveraging AI (GPT-4o), CareerCrate.io can generate tailored application materials in minutes, for free - no sign up required. I'm also developing some optional advanced features like Pursuit™, a tool for job seekers, and SkillForge™, a personalized skill development platform, which will be available with a Pro subscription ($9/month). I'm sharing this with the HN community to get your thoughts and feedback. I'm especially interested in how the AI performs in generating useful content and any suggestions on improving the tool. Please let me know what you think!
