01

Getting Started

Yes, Karmik offers a free plan that lets you generate up to 3 AI-written cover letters with no credit card required. You can sign up and be writing your first cover letter in under 2 minutes. Paid plans unlock unlimited cover letters, advanced resume tools, job tracking, and automation features.

Getting started takes less than 2 minutes. Create a free account, upload your resume (PDF or Word), paste any job description from Indeed, Seek, or anywhere else, and Karmik's AI instantly writes a tailored cover letter. No templates, no manual editing required.

Uploading your resume is optional but strongly recommended. When you upload your resume, Karmik's AI cross-references your skills and experience with the job description to write a highly personalized cover letter. Without a resume, the AI writes a general cover letter based on the job description alone.

Karmik supports PDF and Microsoft Word (.docx) resume uploads. These are the two most common formats used by job seekers, and our AI accurately extracts your experience, skills, and qualifications from both.

02

How It Works

Karmik uses large language model AI (similar to GPT-4) trained specifically for job application writing. When you paste a job description, the AI analyzes the required skills, experience, and tone of the role, then cross-references your resume to write a cover letter that highlights your most relevant qualifications. Every letter is unique, not a template fill-in.

ChatGPT is a general-purpose AI that requires you to write detailed prompts, manually feed your resume data, and craft the output yourself. Karmik is purpose-built for job applications, it automatically reads your resume, analyzes job descriptions, and produces a polished, application-ready cover letter in one click. It also includes a resume builder, job tracker, and application automation that ChatGPT cannot provide.

Karmik generates a complete, tailored cover letter in under 2 minutes. Most users report their letter is ready in 60 to 90 seconds after pasting the job description. The AI writes faster than any human and produces a better first draft than starting from a blank page.

Absolutely. Every cover letter Karmik generates is fully editable. You can tweak the tone, add specific anecdotes, adjust the formatting, or rewrite any section. Think of the AI output as a high-quality first draft that you refine, not a final document you submit blindly.

Yes. Karmik cover letters are written to pass Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS). The AI naturally incorporates keywords from the job description, uses clean formatting without tables or graphics, and follows professional cover letter structure that ATS software can parse correctly.

Job Board & Platform Compatibility

Yes. Karmik is built around Indeed and Seek, the boards where Australian employers actually read and reply. Copy any job description from Indeed or Seek and paste it into Karmik to instantly generate a tailored cover letter, and on the Pro plan the desktop app can auto-apply to Indeed and Seek roles locally on your own machine.

Yes. Because Karmik works from the job description text, you can copy a posting from Indeed, Seek, or a company's own careers page and paste it in to generate a perfectly tailored cover letter for that role.

Karmik's automation features let you scale your job search significantly. While true one-click mass-applying isn't available (to ensure your applications remain quality and personalized), Karmik dramatically reduces the time per application from 30 minutes to under 2 minutes, meaning you can realistically complete 40 to 50 quality applications in the time it used to take to do 5.

Karmik focuses on generating high-quality, personalized cover letters and helping you manage applications efficiently. Our automation tools help you track and manage your pipeline. Auto-submission is available in select workflows, check the Automations section of your dashboard for current capabilities.

Karmik works with any job description you can copy and paste, so you can use it with postings from Indeed, Seek, or a company career page. For automatic applying, Karmik focuses on Indeed and Seek, the Australian boards where employers actually read and reply.

05

Privacy & Security

Yes. Karmik takes data security seriously. Your resume data and personal information are encrypted in transit and at rest using Supabase infrastructure (enterprise-grade cloud security). We never sell your data to third parties, and you can request deletion of your account and data at any time.

Karmik's AI is specifically tuned to write in a natural, human-like professional tone. Unlike obvious AI-generated text, our output reads as a confident, personalized professional letter. That said, we always recommend reviewing and adding personal touches, your own voice and specific anecdotes make every application stronger. Many hiring managers today expect candidates to use AI writing tools as part of their workflow.

Your resume is stored securely in your Karmik account so you don't have to re-upload it for every application. You can update, replace, or delete your resume at any time from your profile settings. We never share your resume data with employers or third parties.
