Generate unique cover letters by uploading your CV/résumé, pasting the job description, and modifying creativity controls. You can also further revise specific sections with GPT controls, manage multiple jobs, as well as multiple cover letters per job.
Hey PH Peeps! 🧙♂️
After the GPT API launched, I had the idea to create a cover letter generator and job application management platform. CoverLetterGPT.xyz is the first version of that idea and I'm happy to say that after only launching a month ago it is just shy of 900 users and was recently featured in the IndieHackers newsletter!
You can use it to generate cover letters by uploading a PDF of your CV/résumé, pasting the job description, and changing a few "creativity controls". The app will then generate cover letters for you, which you can further edit with GPT by highlighting the text you want to change. You can also manage your jobs, create multiple cover letters per job, and other fun stuff.
The response so far has been very good, as the built in some features seem to be resonating with job-seekers. The project itself is also open-source, which seems to have helped a lot with adoption.
Thanks for your time, Product Hunters 🙏
@leon_ostrez thank you! 🙏
Yep. I've gotten feedback that just the ability upload the PDF of your CV/résumé is already a big win for a lot of people. Then the ability to adjust creativity controls, and edit-in-place based on a few styles makes it a very convenient tool
@mihovil_ilakovac haha good idea. I'm actually thinking about adding a Interview Prep section specific to each job and its generated cover letter.
What do you think of this idea?
Congrats on the launch! This looks really smooth, and I think it demonstrates well how GPT can be helpful, at least providing a starting point when you're writing your cover letter.
Two questions:
- is this using GPT-4
- what did you use to build it and how long did it take?
Thank you! At the moment it is still using 3.5-turbo as there isn't a huge difference in output for this usecase, and 3.5 is much snappier.
I used Wasp as the full-stack framework (think Ruby-on-Rails for the PERN stack) and Chakra UI for their styled react components. Both helped me build this app in about 3 days.
