A resume for every job.
Every word still yours.
Lapidly reshapes what you've already written to fit the role in front of you. It takes minutes, not evenings. Nothing reaches the page that you couldn't back up in the interview, and when a job isn't worth your time, it tells you that too.
- Tailored in minutes
- Nothing invented, ever
- Invitation only for now
By the numbers
Three numbers, and the whole product
Most tools ask you to trust that they behaved. These are the three facts that mean you don't have to take anyone's word for it.
0
Lines we write for you
Every sentence on your resume is one you typed yourself and approved.
We pick which of your lines fit each job. We cannot add one you never wrote.
15
Checks before you get a file
Dates that don't add up. A name you're not allowed to publish. A claim nothing in your profile backs.
Fourteen of them stop the file being made at all. You're told what to fix, in plain words.
2
Times it's read back to us
Two separate programs open the finished file and read it the way an employer's software will.
If one finds your name and headings and the other doesn't, it doesn't go out.
You can check all three yourself. A product that argues for plain counts over confident-sounding scores doesn't get to use marketing numbers.
Why we built Lapidly
From frustration to first principles
“Everyone deserves to put their best foot forward. Nobody deserves to find out afterwards that it wasn't theirs.”
Like most people, I spent late nights staring at a blinking cursor, reshaping the same resume for the tenth job that week. Every posting wanted something slightly different. Every applicant-tracking system rejected something I couldn't see. It felt less like a job search and more like a second job.
So I let AI write them instead. It was faster, and the documents read well. But a tool that is told not to invent is being asked not to invent, and there was no way to know, on any given resume, whether it had listened.
That is where Lapidly started, with a simple belief: tailoring should take minutes, not hours, and every line on the page should be something you'd defend out loud.
Today, Lapidly tailors your resume to each role by choosing from evidence you wrote and approved, checks every document against the systems employers actually use, and tells you plainly when a role isn't worth your time. Same stone. New cut.
The difference
What nobody else does
These aren't features we added. They're consequences of building the tailoring step so it cannot write. That is a decision you make once, at the start, and it cannot be retrofitted.
LapidlyWho writes the words
Every other AI resume tool
The model writes new sentences into your resume.
Lapidly
You write every line. The model only chooses which of them to use.
How “don't invent” is enforced
Every other AI resume tool
An instruction in the prompt, honored most of the time.
Lapidly
The model's reply is a list of identifiers. It has no way to return a sentence.
What the match number means
Every other AI resume tool
An 87% score, produced by the same model that wrote the document.
Lapidly
Meets 7 of 7 required, with every verdict citing the specific line that evidences it.
Names you're not free to publish
Every other AI resume tool
No idea that some names are off-limits to you.
Lapidly
You list the ones you can't use. None of them can reach a finished document.
Before you send it
Every other AI resume tool
A preview that looks correct on screen.
Lapidly
Two separate programs read the finished file back. If they don't both find your name, contact details and headings, it doesn't ship.
When you shouldn't apply
Every other AI resume tool
Generates a resume for every posting you paste.
Lapidly
Says skip it when the gaps are real, and shows you which ones.
Meet the founder
Who's behind it
I've spent my career on the other side of the problem. I'm the person you reach after the system has already let you down.
Years of supporting customers taught me to start in the end-user's chair. Not what a system is supposed to do, but what it actually feels like to be stuck in it late on a Friday with something important riding on it.
That work also teaches you the difference between a workaround and a fix. A warning label is a workaround. Removing the thing that caused the problem is a fix, and it's the only one that still holds six months later.
Lapidly started as a fix for my own job search. Every tool I tried promised not to invent things about my career, and not one of them could show me it hadn't. So I stopped looking for a better promise and built something that doesn't need to make one. It can't write a sentence at all. It only chooses from the ones I'd already written and approved. Then it became obvious how many people lose the same evenings to the same problem.
Telling a system not to do something is a workaround. Building it so it can't is a fix. Everything in Lapidly sits on the second side of that line.
Our mission
To make every resume something you'd defend out loud, and to say so plainly when a job isn't worth your time.
Three commitments sit under that, and each one names the thing in the product that enforces it, so you can hold us to them rather than take them on trust.
Read our mission and valuesApply to fewer roles. Make every one count.
Every safety check is included on every plan, and the free plan stays free rather than expiring into one. Access is limited while Lapidly is tested against real applications.
Accounts are invitation only while Lapidly is in private testing.
