Will NextRole get me hired?

No tool gets you hired. Your candidacy does: your experience, how clearly it is presented, and whether you are applying to roles that actually fit. NextRole takes the busywork out of an active search, scores each posting against your profile with a one-line why, tailors your documents to the roles you approve, and keeps your pipeline moving, so the effort you put in lands where a recruiter can see it. If you are not planning to apply to real postings in the next few months, wait and start your trial when you are.

Do I need a credit card to start?

Yes. Every plan requires a card at signup and starts with a 7-day trial for first-time subscribers. You are not charged until day 8. Cancel before then and you pay nothing.

What happens after the 7-day trial?

If you don't cancel, you're charged the monthly or yearly rate for the plan you chose at signup. You can downgrade to Starter ($9/mo), switch plans, pause, or cancel anytime from your billing page. No surprises — we send a reminder before the trial ends.

What is auto-apply and which jobs support it?

Auto-apply submits your profile, resume, and an optional cover letter directly to a company's ATS with one click. It currently works on jobs hosted on Greenhouse and Lever — two of the most widely used ATS platforms. More platforms are coming.

What is ghost job detection?

Ghost jobs are real-looking postings for roles companies aren't actively hiring. We check signals like posting age, reposting patterns, and hiring activity to flag likely ghost jobs before you waste an application on them.

What's the difference between the AI assistant and the AI career coach?

The AI assistant (Pro) is a context-aware helper woven into the product — it guides you through steps, suggests actions, and answers questions. The AI career coach (Career Sprint) is a dedicated, persistent agent that knows your full history and coaches you proactively — more like a human advisor than a tool.

Can I upgrade or downgrade my plan later?

Yes. You can change plans at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades take effect at the end of your current billing period.

Is my resume data kept private?

Your resume and profile data are encrypted at rest and in transit. We never sell or share your data. It's used solely to power your search and AI features within NextRole.

An honest fit check

Is NextRole right for you?

We do not sell shortcuts. No tool gets you hired; your candidacy does. What NextRole does is take the busywork out of an active search, so the effort you put in lands where a recruiter can see it. Here is who that works for, and who should keep their money.

NextRole is a fit if

You are actively searching and expect to apply to real postings in the next few months.
You will upload a resume and name the roles you want. Every score and every tailored document is built from them.
You want to see why a job scores the way it does before you spend an hour on it.
You are searching in the US, where our job sources and salary data are strongest.
You want each application to go out with your approval on it, not sprayed.

NextRole is not the right tool if

You want something that applies to hundreds of jobs for you without you looking. We ask you to approve each one, on purpose.
You are not ready to upload a resume or say which roles you are aiming for.
Your search is mainly outside the US.
Your next role will come entirely through people you already know. Keep NextRole for the day you have a posting in hand.
You need a free tool. The job match scorer at /score is free with no account. The full app is a 7-day trial, then a subscription.

By plan

Starter

Get unstuck

Built for: A steady search at a manageable pace: live search with match scores, save and track, auto-apply on Greenhouse and Lever, and up to 10 tailored resumes a month.

Not for: A high-volume push. If you tailor more than ten resumes a month, Pro costs less than the ceiling will.

Pro

Make real progress

Built for: An active search where follow-up reminders, salary estimates, and the site-wide assistant earn their keep every week.

Not for: Someone who wants coaching, ghost-job screening, and negotiation help. That is the Sprint, and paying for Pro first only delays it.

Career Sprint

Accelerate with focused support

Built for: A focused push with a dedicated coach, resume tailoring per job, ghost-job detection, and negotiation coaching when offers arrive.

Not for: A passive, once-a-week search. You would be paying for tools you do not open. Start on Starter and move up when the pace picks up.
