How can we help?

Choose "Build my CV" on any page. The editor opens, where you add your target job and your details. You can add or remove sections as you go, and the preview updates as you type.

You can start a CV as a guest. To save it online, use the AI features or download a PDF, you need a free account.

Yes. In "Target Role & Context", choose "Upload job ad" and pick a PDF, Word (.docx) or text file. Its text appears in the Job Description box so you can check it. The file is read in your browser and isn't uploaded.

When you paste a job ad, the AI uses it to suggest duties, skills and a career profile that fit that role, and to word your experience for it. It works from what you tell it, and you choose what to keep.

It makes a new copy of a saved CV for one job ad, with a career profile, skills and duties suggested for that job. Your original CV isn't changed. It uses 2 credits.

It compares your CV with a job ad and shows the keywords you have and the ones you're missing, plus layout and content tips. It's a guide, not a guarantee of how an employer's system will rank your CV. It uses 3 credits.

The AI can turn your profile picture into a professional passport-style headshot, or show you in work clothes that suit your target job. Each photo edit uses 8 credits.

Building and downloading your CV is free in the Classic and ATS Plain templates. A Pro Pass (30 or 90 days) unlocks all 10 templates and up to 25 saved CVs, and includes AI credits. Each AI action uses credits, and you can top up any time. Everything is a one-time payment: no subscriptions, nothing renews automatically, and credits never expire.

Yes, within 7 days of buying, if you haven't used any AI credits or downloaded a CV in a Pro template since that purchase. If an AI action fails, its credits are returned automatically. For anything else, email support@buildaicv.com. See our Terms of Service for the full refund policy.

To add a self-introduction video, paste your video link in the Personal Details section. It shows as a play button on your photo in the PDF. Under "Work Videos" you can add links to videos of your work.

Yes. In My CVs, use Duplicate to copy a CV and Rename to give it a clear name. "Tailor to this job" also makes a named copy for a job ad.

Pro templates need an active Pro Pass to download. You can preview them at any time, and download your CV in the free Classic and ATS Plain templates.

Email support@buildaicv.com from your account's email address and we will delete your account and its data.
