BuildThatCV

CV builder with a private AI assistant

A CV that’s true to you, tailored to the job.

Write it, see it, print it. An AI assistant on our own server helps you put what you’ve done into clear words — and never invents what you haven’t.

  • Import the CV you already have, or start from a blank one
  • Thirty templates with a live preview, in A4 or Letter
  • Paste a job ad to tailor it, then print a PDF or copy plain text

No password to remember. We email you a sign-in link.

What is BuildThatCV?

BuildThatCV is an online CV builder for creating ATS-friendly CVs and cover letters. You can import your current CV, tailor it to a job ad, track your applications, and print it to PDF or copy a plain-text version. Its AI assistant runs on our own server and only uses the facts you give it.

Everything you need for an application

From the first draft to the offer, in one place.

Live preview, 30 templates

Ten free templates, including Modern, Classic and Academic, and twenty on Pro, including an ATS-friendly layout. Adjust fonts, colours and spacing, in A4 or Letter. What you see is what prints.

AI that sticks to the facts

Rewrite your summary, turn rough notes into bullet points, and get questions that draw out missing detail. Suggestions are editable, and nothing is saved until you accept it.

Tailor to a job ad

Paste a job description to see which requirements your CV already supports, and which it doesn’t yet.

Cover letters

Draft a letter from your CV and the job ad, edit it, and print it in the same style as your CV.

Import your current CV

Upload a PDF or Word file. We turn it into an editable draft for you to check before anything is saved.

Track your applications

Move jobs from Wishlist to Applied, Interview and Offer, and keep a note of which CV you sent where.

Better wording, not made-up results

Many AI writers pad a CV with numbers and claims you can’t back up in an interview. Our assistant only uses what you give it. When something is missing, it asks.

Your notes

moved billing to the new system, lots of teams involved, took about 6 months

Suggested bullet

Led the migration of billing to a new platform, coordinating several teams over six months.

Question for you

How many teams took part, and what improved for customers once it was live?

How it works

  1. Start or import. Begin from a blank CV, or upload the one you already have.
  2. Improve with AI when you want it. The assistant runs only when you press a button, and you decide what to keep.
  3. Tailor, print and track. Adapt it to each job, save it as a PDF, and follow the application on your board.

Frequently asked questions

Is BuildThatCV free?

You can start for free. The free plan includes one CV and one cover letter, and PDF, plain-text and full data export are free on every plan. Pro, with AI writing and unlimited CVs, is planned at €4 a month and is not on sale yet.

Does BuildThatCV store my CV?

Yes. Your CVs are saved in your account on our server so you can come back and edit them. They are private to your account, and what you write never goes into our logs. You can download or delete everything at any time.

Does the AI see my data?

The AI model runs on our own server, not at an AI company. When you press an AI button, the text for that request is processed there and the result is shown as a suggestion you can edit. It runs only when you ask, and nothing is saved to your CV until you accept it.

Is BuildThatCV ATS-friendly?

BuildThatCV has an ATS-friendly template, and you can copy a plain-text version of your CV for job portals. No tool can promise to pass every applicant tracking system, so keep the layout simple and match your wording to the job ad.

Can I import my existing CV?

Yes. Upload a PDF or Word file and we turn it into an editable draft. You check it before anything is saved.

How do I delete my account?

Open Profile and settings from the account menu in the app and choose to delete your account. It permanently erases your account and everything in it. You can download your data first.

Private by design

  • No outside AI services. The language model runs on the same server as the app, so your CV and the job ads you paste are never sent to an AI company.
  • Not in our logs. We log only technical details such as timings and error types, never what you write.
  • Yours to take or delete. Download all your data at any time, or delete your account and everything in it.
