FAQ
Questions, answered.
What are credits and why do you use them?
Credits power our AI features. Each AI action costs 1 credit: importing a resume, tailoring it to a job, or generating a cover letter. Since you only import your resume once and can reuse it for every application, the Free plan (20 credits) supports up to 20 tailored resumes, Pro (200 credits) supports up to 200, and Max (600 credits) supports up to 600 tailored resumes.
Can I upload my existing resume instead of starting from scratch?
Yes! Upload your resume in PDF or DOCX format, and our AI automatically extracts all your information—work experience, education, skills, projects, and more—into an editable format. This costs 1 AI credit but only needs to be done once. You can then reuse this imported resume data for unlimited tailoring to different jobs.
How does the AI resume tailoring actually work?
Paste a job description, and our AI analyzes the key requirements and keywords. It then optimizes your resume content to emphasize relevant experience and incorporate ATS-friendly terms—all while maintaining your original resume length and truthfulness. Each tailoring costs 1 credit. You'll see a side-by-side diff of all changes before accepting them.
Will my tailored resume still sound authentic?
Absolutely. Our AI enhances your existing content, not replaces it. It maintains your professional voice while strategically emphasizing relevant skills and experience. Plus, you review all changes in a diff view and can manually edit anything before exporting. Nothing is fabricated or exaggerated—we preserve truthfulness while optimizing for the role.
Does R1Resume generate cover letters?
Yes! After tailoring your resume, you can optionally generate a personalized 200-250 word cover letter based on your resume and the job description. This costs 1 AI credit and is completely optional—you can skip it if you prefer to write your own or don't need one for that particular application.
