Writing services
A professional writes your résumé once. It is slow, it is expensive, and it is stale the moment the next posting wants something different.

The problem
A job search has two jobs. Most tools hand you the second one.
There is the human job — choosing roles, reaching out, interviewing. Then there is the clerical one: rewriting the résumé for the tenth time, fitting it to each posting, keeping track of where it went. Every generation of tooling so far handed you the clerical job and called it help.
Word processors
Do it yourself and you become the typesetter. Content and formatting tangle together, and the hours go into margins and line breaks instead of substance.
Résumé-builder sites
They added structure by adding a form, turning your history into data entry — then put the finished file behind an export paywall.
How it works
You decide; the agent does the work.
One conversation covers what used to take five tools. Each step below is a thing you ask for in plain English, and then watch land on the page.
Say it in plain English
Describe a role the way you would describe it to a person. The agent writes the prose, files it in the right place, and shows you what changed. If you already have a résumé, import it once — PDF, DOCX, or a LinkedIn export — and start from there. Editing is a conversation, not data entry.
A version for every listing
Pin a job and the agent shapes a dedicated version of your résumé around it. Your main résumé stays untouched. You apply with the copy that fits the posting, not the one-size-fits-all.
See the fit before you apply
Every tailored version gets a match score against the posting, with the reasoning attached: what aligns, what is buried, what is missing. Tell it to surface the buried thing and watch the score move. No black box.
A tracker that keeps itself
Save roles as you find them, tailor per role, mark them applied. The tracker, your versions, and your history stay linked, so you always know what went where.
Clean files, on demand
Designer templates render to PDF or DOCX whenever you want them. Because they render from structured data instead of a word processor, the files parse cleanly in applicant-tracking systems. Share a public link only when you choose to.
Why it is built this way
The résumé is data. The PDF is a render of it.
That one decision is what makes the rest cheap. Tailoring a version per listing, scoring it, rolling a change back, exporting a clean file — all of it is easy when the source is structured and hard when the source is a document.
One source, many renders
Your history lives as structured data. Templates render it on demand, so a new format or a new tailored version is a render, not a rewrite — and the output parses cleanly for the machines that read it first.
Nothing is a one-way door
Every change the agent makes lands in a history you can read and roll back. You can let it work fast because you can always see exactly what it did and undo it.
No export paywall
Export a PDF, a DOCX, or the raw structured data whenever you want. The public share link is opt-in. There is no walk-away fee — the thing you built stays yours if you leave.
It will not promise you a job
Appleo removes the administration between you and pursuing a role. Choosing the right roles, making real connections, and interviewing well stay yours. Tools that promise interviews are selling something else.
Underneath
The same engine, in your terminal.
Appleo started as resume-as-code: a command-line tool that keeps a résumé as version-controlled structured files and renders them. The platform is that engine with the terminal removed. If you already run your own coding agent — Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, OpenCode — you can drive the same engine locally, with the files on your own machine.
I built the CLI for my own job search first, then productized it. The interesting part was never the writing — models do that fine. It was making the résumé a structured artifact with a history, so an agent can change it safely and you can see every edit it made.
The agent inside Appleo runs on my own stack: its conduct is enforced by Decorum, and its token spend is metered by Assay.
The agent is scope-gated. A deterministic check runs before the model does and refuses anything outside your résumé and your search. It is a rule, not a request in a prompt.
Tailoring runs isolated. Each tailoring run executes in its own container with no network access, so a job description you pasted in cannot talk to anything.
The match score has a floor under it. A deterministic keyword baseline is computed and kept alongside the agent's semantic read, so the number stays reproducible rather than being whatever the model felt like saying.

It is live. Go use it.
Import the résumé you already have and put the agent to work on trial credits before you pay anything. Paid plans start at $19 a month, sized by how much of the agent's work you need.
