Show HN: Verifying that an auto-submitted job application arrived

AI Applyd is an automated job-application agent: upload one resume, and it rewrites it for each role, writes a cover letter, and fills out and submits the application on the employer's own ATS (Greenhouse, Workday, Lever, etc.). An application is marked 'sent' only when the employer's system confirms receipt, not when the submit button is clicked. It also flags ghost jobs, paces submission volume, tracks your pipeline, and integrates with ChatGPT, Claude, and Cursor via MCP.

Dear Linear hiring team,

I owned the metering pipeline end to end, cutting billing discrepancies 94% and p95 from 820ms to 110ms. That is the exact problem your posting describes, and it is the work I want to keep doing.

Only things you did

Resume and Cover Letters

One master resume in. A version per posting out, built only from work you did. It is hard-blocked from writing “passionate about”.

// common questions

Yes, it really presses submit.

AI Applyd applies to jobs for you, so your evenings go on preparing for interviews instead of retyping the same history into one portal after another. It reads each posting, rewrites your resume for it, writes the cover letter, answers the open-ended screening questions from your real history, and files the finished application on the company's own hiring system - the software an employer uses to collect and screen applicants. AI Applyd submits on 12 of those systems: Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, iCIMS, Personio, Teamtailor, SmartRecruiters, Recruitee, Breezy, Workable and Rippling. Nothing is counted as sent until that employer's own system confirms it. Free to start, no credit card.

Yes, and AI Applyd holds itself to a standard almost nothing else in this category will accept: an application only counts as sent once the employer's own hiring system confirms it, never because a button got clicked. The same rule holds on all 12 hiring systems AI Applyd submits on: nothing is counted as sent until that employer's own system confirms it - Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, iCIMS, Personio, Teamtailor, SmartRecruiters, Recruitee, Breezy, Workable and Rippling - and in every country. Your dashboard shows it application by application: which ones the employer confirmed, and which are still waiting. AI Applyd does not publish a success rate, because a number with no denominator printed next to it is marketing rather than evidence.

AI Applyd submits it. The application is filled in and sent on the employer's own hiring system, screening questions included, and then AI Applyd waits for that employer's system to confirm it arrived before marking it sent. AI Applyd's own submit click and its own end-of-run screenshot are recorded too, and they are labelled as its own: they describe what AI Applyd did, never what the company received. A tool that shows you the fields it filled is reading its own typing back to you.

AI Applyd submits on 12 hiring systems - the software companies use to collect and screen applications - and every one of them carries live jobs today: Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, iCIMS, Personio, Teamtailor, SmartRecruiters, Recruitee, Breezy, Workable and Rippling. That is the whole list, named rather than padded, and the same standard holds on all of them: your application goes in complete and tailored on the employer's own system, and it is only counted as sent once that system confirms it. AI Applyd can read and match jobs from more systems than it submits on (17 families in total), so those roles still reach your dashboard - it just tells you which is which rather than faking a confirmation.

Because the employer's own system says so, not because AI Applyd says so. Every application goes out from an email address AI Applyd created for you, so the confirmation a hiring system sends after a submission arrives somewhere it can be read and tied back to that exact application. Your dashboard then shows it row by row: confirmed by the employer, or still waiting. Nothing is quietly promoted from the second to the first. AI Applyd keeps its own records too - the submit its browser watched go through, the screenshot at the end of the run - and labels them as its own, because they describe what AI Applyd did rather than what the company received. A tool that shows you the fields it filled is reading its own typing back to you.

Yes, and the standard is identical in every country. AI Applyd applies based on which system the employer hires on, not where the job sits, so a role in Berlin, London, Toronto or Austin gets the same tailored application on the same 12 hiring systems - and the same rule about what counts as sent. Personio, Teamtailor and Recruitee in particular carry heavy European inventory, so European roles are first-class here rather than an afterthought.

No - AI Applyd never touches your LinkedIn account and never runs in your browser. It refuses the one-click job-board apply buttons as a matter of policy and uploads a real resume to the employer's own hiring system instead, which is both the safer route and the one a recruiter actually reads. No automated connection requests, no bulk profile views, no scraping of search results. Submissions run from AI Applyd's own infrastructure on rotating residential IPs, never from your browser or your session, and they are paced per user - 15 a day on Hired in 30, 50 on Hired Yesterday.

What a recruiter reads is your real career, in your own voice. AI Applyd's cover letters and tailored resumes pull only from what is actually on your resume - no invented skills, no certifications you never earned, no numbers you never gave it - and an anti-cliche filter bans "passionate about", "leveraged", "spearheaded" and "synergies". If it is not in your history, it does not appear in your application.

No - AI Applyd is built to make spraying awkward. Before anything is sent, your resume is scored against that specific posting. Below the fit floor set in your settings the application is skipped and recorded as skipped: nothing is submitted and the company never sees it. What does get sent is rewritten against that posting, with the open-ended questions answered from your actual history, so a hiring team receives one considered application instead of the same PDF forty times. On top of that AI Applyd puts a hard daily ceiling on every account (15 a day on Hired in 30, 50 on Hired Yesterday) and paces submissions per hiring system. Blasting is the easy thing to build and the first thing a recruiter filters out.

AI Applyd tells you exactly why, on the application itself, in plain language: the posting closed before it got there, the site's bot defence held, the form could not be read, the account wall could not be cleared. Billing has exactly one rule and t
