Tailored my resume to three different job descriptions in minutes.
ATS scoring feature gave me realistic feedback on keyword gaps.
Cover letter drafts can sound a bit robotic sometimes.
Clean interface and very smooth PDF export.
AI-synthesized perspectives grounded in live site inspection, pricing structure, and category benchmarks — presented as editorial viewpoints rather than individual customer testimonials.
A chat coach that answers resume, interview, salary and career-change questions using your CV and saved jobs as context, and returns edits as cards you apply or skip.
An ATS check scores your resume as you edit, lists findings under the section they belong to, and shows the points each fix is worth before you apply it.
Paste a job posting to see which requirements are shown, partly shown or missing, then generate a tailored copy that uses the posting's own language where it is genuinely true.
Drop in a PDF or DOCX to get an editable resume in under a minute, then draft a matching cover letter from that resume, with or without a job description.
Track every application, stage and follow-up on one free board, and export selectable-text PDFs in one of 25 templates with full control over fonts, colors and layout.
Kaizen is a career toolkit built around a simple loop: add your existing CV (or start from scratch), tell the coach what role you are targeting, and let it tailor each application. It supports PDF and DOCX upload that becomes an editable resume in about a minute, then a chat-style coach that answers career questions and proposes numbered edits you accept or skip one card at a time. Each suggested rewrite shows the ATS points it adds, and any figure it does not have stays as a placeholder rather than being invented, which keeps the final document honest.
The product spans the whole application cycle. A live ATS check scores your resume while you edit and ranks fixes by value; job matching marks each requirement of a posting as shown, partly shown or missing; cover letters are drafted from your resume; and an application tracker keeps every role, stage and follow-up on one board. Interview prep, negotiation help and a 90-day plan sit on the Pro tier, with voice mock interviews listed as coming soon.
Pricing follows a freemium model. Free covers unlimited drafts, the live ATS score, the full tracker, 10 of 25 templates and one downloadable PDF resume on a free template, with a small monthly AI allowance. Pro costs $10.00 per month billed yearly ($119.95 per year) and adds all 25 templates, unlimited PDF and Word exports, every ATS finding, AI fixes that re-score before applying, job match scoring and a larger shared AI allowance covering up to 125 resume and cover-letter pairs a month. Payment is available in USD, Danish kroner and Euros, and the interface works in English and Danish.
Students with little formal work history answer simple prompts about coursework, part-time jobs and side projects, and Kaizen frames them as measurable results recruiters recognise.
People switching industries get help mapping transferable achievements onto the terminology and requirements the new field's job posts use.
Job seekers sending many applications per week use Pro to tailor and score a fresh resume and cover letter for each posting and keep them all organised.
Candidates rehearse likely interview questions, plan answers to awkward gaps and get negotiation guidance and a 90-day plan before accepting an offer.
