Great idea! But how are you guys planning to pay for the APIs? I was playing around with it and one day just used up all my credits. I will share it with a friend of mine who provdies resume writing service

This is a side-project of ours for now. Actual costs have been minimal, save for our time - which we decided to cap just so we don't go into our usual perfectionism. So we haven't thought deeply about monetisation TBH.

If this ever gets _big_ - and hence useful to enough people - I would like to have a very simple and easy-to-appreciate monetisation. So not ads, nor subscriptions. Pay X and get 10*X value back in your life or somesuch thing.

Thanks for checking it out. Right now we're trying to see if the product, in its very early stages, appeals to anyone. If they'll use it, come back to it, etc.

Then we'll most likely pay for the APIs. And think of monetisation and where we'd want to go with this.

That being said, are there any features you're keen on? anything you'd like to see that'll help you in your day to day?

This is pretty good. I can see a lot of people using the CV maker. I personally am not looking to create a resume/cover letter. But definite can see a job seeker use it. Have you guys considered an email correction addon powered by ChatGPT? These days I put rough drafts of the email I type into ChatGPT and ask it to rewrite it professionally.
