Frequently asked questions.

Everything you need to know about ResumeAlign AI — from getting started to advanced features.

Getting Started

How do I create an account?
Visit app.resumealign.ai/signup and create your account with your email. Free to start.
How long does setup take?
Most users are fully set up in under 10 minutes. Upload a resume, define your job preferences, and optionally connect your job alert emails.
Do I need to upload a resume to get started?
It helps, but it's not required. You can also build your career profile manually by entering your experience, skills, and accomplishments directly.

Resume Generation

How does ResumeAlign AI align my resume?
Our AI analyzes the job description, identifies key requirements, and rewrites your resume sections to highlight relevant experience, skills, and achievements — all while maintaining your authentic voice.
Will my resume pass ATS systems?
Yes. Every generated resume is formatted specifically to pass Applicant Tracking Systems. We use clean formatting, proper section headers, and keyword optimization to maximize your chances.
Can I edit the AI-generated resume?
Yes. Download your tailored resume in PDF or DOCX, then make any final tweaks in your preferred editor (like Word or Google Docs) before applying. You stay in full control of the final version.
What file formats are supported?
You can download your aligned resumes in both PDF and DOCX formats. You can also upload your existing resume in PDF or DOCX format.
Does the AI make things up?
Never. ResumeAlign AI only works with the experience, skills, and achievements you provide. It restructures and emphasizes your real background — it doesn't fabricate content.
Can I regenerate a resume if I don't like it?
Yes. You can generate a new tailored resume for the same job as many times as you'd like (within your plan's generation limits). Each generation counts toward your limit.

Job Detection & Email Scanning

How does smart job detection work?
Connect your job board email alerts, and ResumeAlign AI securely scans incoming emails to identify relevant job opportunities. It matches them against your skills, experience, and the criteria you define in your account.
Which job sources are supported?
Currently supports automatic job alert detection from Indeed and LinkedIn emails. More sources coming soon. You can also paste any job description manually to generate a tailored resume instantly.
Is my email data secure?
Yes. We use secure OAuth connections and never store your email credentials. We only read job alert emails from the senders you authorize, and we never access personal messages.
Can I add jobs manually?
Yes. You can paste any job description directly into ResumeAlign AI and generate a tailored resume without connecting email alerts.

Pricing & Billing

Is there a free trial?
Yes — Entry Level starts with a free trial. Cancel anytime during the trial.
Can I change plans later?
Yes — you can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time from your account settings. Changes take effect at the start of your next billing cycle.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept all major credit and debit cards through our secure payment processor.
Do you offer refunds?
We want you to be happy. If you're not satisfied within the first 14 days, contact support for a full refund.
What happens when I hit my resume limit?
Your monthly resume count resets at the start of each billing cycle. If you need more, you can upgrade to a higher plan at any time.

Account & Data

Can I delete my account?
Yes. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time from your account settings. Deletion is permanent and cannot be undone.
How is my data stored?
Your data is stored securely using industry-standard encryption. We never sell or share your personal information with third parties.
Can I export my data?
Yes. You can download all your generated resumes at any time. Your career profile data is also exportable from your account settings.

Workflow & Features

How is this different from a resume builder?
Resume builders help you create a single resume from scratch. ResumeAlign AI takes your existing career profile and automatically tailors it to each specific job description — saving you hours of manual rewriting.
Can I use ResumeAlign AI for multiple job searches?
Yes. You can define multiple sets of job preferences and receive tailored resumes for different types of roles simultaneously.
Do I need any technical skills?
Not at all. ResumeAlign AI is designed to be intuitive and easy to use. If you can upload a file and click a button, you're good to go.
