Frequently Asked Questions

Autoply is a UK-first automated job application platform. It scrapes job boards, uses AI to tailor your CV and cover letter for each role, finds the hiring manager at each company, and sends a direct cold email with your application attached. You set your preferences once and Autoply applies to matching jobs in one click.

Upload your CV, set your job preferences (role titles, location, salary, remote preference), and trigger bulk apply. Autoply searches 20+ job boards for matching roles across 200,000+ live jobs in the UK, US and Europe. For each match, AI tailors your CV bullet points and writes a personalised cover letter. Then it finds the hiring manager or recruiter at each company using email finder tools and sends a direct cold email with your tailored CV attached. Everything runs server-side -- it works in one click, no browser needed.

Yes. Your CV is stored securely on Supabase with row-level security. CV text is processed in memory for AI tailoring and is not shared with third parties beyond the AI provider you choose. If you use BYOK, your data goes directly to your own AI provider account. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time.

For each job, Autoply analyses the job description to extract required skills, seniority level, and key language. It then rewrites your CV bullet points to mirror those requirements using your real experience. It also generates a personalised cover letter that references the specific role and company. The result reads like you wrote it, not like it came from a template.

Autoply pulls from 20+ job boards covering Reed, Adzuna, Greenhouse, Lever, Indeed, LinkedIn, TotalJobs, CV-Library, RemoteOK, WeWorkRemotely, and more -- 200,000+ live jobs across the UK, US and Europe. The free Chrome extension also lets you save jobs from any company careers page. Autoply covers UK, European, and global roles.

Autoply is UK-first but works globally. It scrapes RemoteOK and WeWorkRemotely for remote roles worldwide. The direct email approach works anywhere there is a hiring manager to reach, regardless of geography. Cover letters are adapted to local conventions.

Autoply tracks recruiter replies and matches them to the original application in your dashboard. You can see read/unread status, reply timestamps, and which companies have responded. Replies are threaded so you can follow the full conversation for each application.

We do not publish a platform-wide callback rate yet, because we only want to quote numbers we have measured. Your own reply and callback rate is shown in your dashboard. What we can say: tailored applications get interviews 1.8x as often as untailored ones (5.7% vs 3.1%, Huntr Job Search Trends Q2 2026), and Autoply tailors every application and sends it straight to the hiring manager, so it is not lost in the ATS pile.

LazyApply fires applications via LinkedIn Easy Apply, landing you in the same pile as hundreds of others. Autoply finds the hiring manager at each company and sends a direct cold email with your tailored CV. It also covers UK job boards (Reed, Adzuna) that LazyApply does not support, offers BYOK pricing, and tracks recruiter replies automatically.

JobCopilot charges around £500/year, and requires your browser to stay open. Autoply runs server-side 24/7 (works while your laptop is closed), starts at £2.99/week with plans up to £199/year, tailors every CV with AI, and sends applications directly to hiring managers.
