5. Service Description

ApplyKit provides AI-powered tools for job applications, including:

  • CV Import & AI Parsing — Upload a CV as PDF; AI extracts structured data (personal info, experience, education, skills) for editing and tailoring.
  • Visual CV Editor — Five professional templates (Stockholm, Helsinki, Copenhagen, Tallinn, Oslo) with customisable fonts, accent colours, margins, photo, section reordering, and fit-to-page options.

  • AI Cover Letter Generation — AI-generated cover letters matched to job requirements and your CV, with conversational refinement.
  • Skills Vault — A persistent, reusable inventory of up to 50 professional skills. Skills are extracted from your CV, inferred by AI, or added manually. Per-job AI recommendations highlight which skills are most relevant.
  • AI Interview Preparation — Conversational AI coaching for specific roles, generating likely questions, talking points, salary guidance, and a compiled preparation document.
  • Career Coach — An AI career strategist that analyses your CV and all saved jobs simultaneously to provide market alignment, skill gap analysis, and strategic career recommendations.
  • Job Collection & Management — Add jobs via PDF upload, URL paste, or text entry. AI parses job requirements automatically. Track application status (not applied, applied, rejected), archive and restore jobs.
  • Job Search Integration — Browse and save job listings from three Estonian job boards: Töötukassa (Estonian Unemployment Insurance Fund), CV Online (cv.ee), and CV Keskus (cvkeskus.ee). See Section 6 for details.

  • PDF Export — Export CVs and cover letters as professionally formatted PDF files (paid feature, see Section 7).
  • Multi-Language Support — Full interface in English and Estonian. AI outputs can be generated in either language.

6. Job Search Integration

The Service integrates with three Estonian job boards to let you browse and save publicly available job listings:

  • Töötukassa (Estonian Unemployment Insurance Fund) — public government job board.
  • CV Online (cv.ee) — public job portal operating in the Baltics.

  • The Service does not create accounts on job boards on your behalf.
  • The Service does not submit applications through job boards.
  • The Service does not store job board credentials.
