Cover Letter Generator

What is a cover letter generator?

A cover letter generator takes what you know about a job and what you know about yourself, and turns it into a first draft of the letter you send alongside your resume. Instead of staring at a blank page, you fill in the job title, the company, the hiring manager's name if you have it, and the requirements from the advert. You add your own background: the roles, skills and results that make you a fit. The tool then writes a draft that connects the two.

This one works in four short steps, in your browser. You are still the author — you describe the job and yourself in plain language, and you get a draft to edit rather than a finished document to sign your name to sight unseen. Think of it as a fast way to get a real starting draft instead of a blank page or a generic template.

How to use it

1. Describe the job. Enter the job title and company, add the hiring manager's name if you know it, and paste in the job description or list the key requirements — the more of the advert you include, the more specific the draft will be.
2. Add your background. Enter your name and contact details, then describe the roles, skills and achievements relevant to this job. If you have already used the resume builder on this site, one button fills this box from your saved resume, read straight out of your own browser.
3. Generate, edit and download. Pick a tone — Professional, Warm or Direct — and click Write my letter. Edit the draft until every line is true and yours, then download it as a PDF through your browser's print dialog, or copy the text to paste anywhere.

What the AI writes, and what you have to check

The draft is written by a language model, using only what you typed into the job and background boxes. It is instructed to stick to the details you gave it — not to invent employers, dates, degrees or numbers — but a model can still drift, phrase something too confidently, or generalise a detail you gave it into something you did not quite say. Treat the output as a strong starting point, not a finished letter, and read it before you send it anywhere.

Two things are worth checking every time: that every company name, job title, date and number in the draft matches what you actually entered, and that any specific claim about your experience is something you can back up in an interview. A cover letter with an invented job title or a made-up figure in it is worse than no cover letter at all — and it is a two-minute read to catch that before you download it.

Your draft, your data

Generating a draft is the one moment your information leaves your browser: the job details and background you typed are sent to the AI provider so it can write the letter. Everything else — editing the text, the word count, the copy button, and producing the PDF — happens entirely on your device. Do not paste anything confidential into the boxes.

Your job details, background and draft are saved in your browser's local storage, so they are still there if you reload the page on the same device and browser. Nothing is synced to an account and nothing sits on a server — clearing your site data clears the letter too. Because writing a draft costs real money to run, generating is limited to a few uses per hour per visitor; if you hit that limit you can still write and edit the letter by hand, nothing else locks.

Why is it free?

There is no account to create, no watermark on the PDF, and no paywall between you and a finished letter. The AI drafting step genuinely costs money each time it runs, which is why it is rate limited rather than gated behind a sign-up — everything else, from editing to downloading, is unlimited and free.
