One profile, a tailored resume for every job
A job application tracker that writes a resume and cover letter for each job description from one detailed profile, with every model output validated before it is stored.

The challenge
Tailoring a resume to every posting is slow, and handing the work to a language model creates new problems.
A model will happily claim experience nobody has, and the job description it reads is text written by a stranger.
Resalad had to produce a resume and cover letter for each application from one detailed profile, without inventing anything and without letting a pasted posting steer the result.
Our approach
We designed the product around one rich profile and short, guided steps, and sent every model call through a single function.
That function forces one tool call, validates the result against a strict schema and retries with the validation errors when it fails.
A setup wizard shows the resume taking shape as you answer, and the application flow asks one clarifying question at a time.
Job descriptions and repository files are sanitized and fenced in delimiters, repository summaries must be reviewed before they are saved, and names and contact details come from the profile, never from the model.
The outcome
Six kinds of model output share one validated path, and the documents sent with an application stay exactly as they were sent.
Gap analysis, resumes, cover letters, enrichment questions, skill suggestions and repository summaries all run in a background worker and are tested against a library of prompt-injection fixtures.
PDFs are rendered once on the server from validated JSON, and marking an application as applied freezes the documents that were sent.
