Frequently asked questions

What does a CV cost?

You pay per download with credits: 1 credit = 1 PDF download. Credits are a one-time purchase — no subscription, no recurring cost — and they never expire. The current package prices are shown at checkout; payment is handled by Stripe and you receive an invoice by email.

Do I need an account?

No. There is no registration and no login. After a purchase you receive a download token by email — entering it unlocks your downloads, on any device.

What is a token?

Your key to the downloads — it replaces the account. It arrives by email after your purchase: a string of characters that holds your credits. Enter it in the editor once and you can download as often as your credits allow — on any device, you just enter it there as well. It never expires, so keep the email; and keep it to yourself, because whoever has the token can use the downloads.

Where is my CV stored?

In your browser, in a local database — not on our servers. To generate the PDF your data is sent to our server once, rendered, and not kept.

Can I upload my old CV?

Yes. Upload your existing CV as a PDF, image or Word file (max 5 MB) — it is read automatically and opens pre-filled in the editor, where you simply pick a new template.

Can I continue on another device?

Yes, you simply take your CVs with you: export them as a file from the editor's actions menu — photo included — and import them on the other device. Nothing syncs automatically, because the data lives only in your browser and not on our servers. Your credits don't need moving at all: the download token from your purchase email can be redeemed on any device. That same export file is also your backup.

Which templates are there?

Currently 10 designs, each in six colour schemes and with or without a photo. All templates share the same data — you can switch designs at any time without re-typing anything. New templates are added continuously.

How do I get my PDF?

Click Download in the editor. One download costs 1 credit, and the PDF looks exactly like the preview — same templates, same rendering.

Is my CV ATS-friendly?

Yes. The PDF contains a real text layer — not a picture of a CV. Applicant tracking systems (ATS) can read the text directly: standard fonts are embedded, nothing is rendered as an image, and the content can be selected, copied and searched.
