A resume builder that never forces a subscription
Most AI resume tools want $15–$30 every month for a task you do a handful of times a year. AdaptMyCV lets you pay $4 per CV instead — free to preview, pay only to download. Want unlimited for a busy stretch? A one-time $19 pass or $29/month is there if you'd rather — but it's optional, and you're never locked in.
The forced-subscription problem
Most AI resume tools follow the SaaS playbook: the only way in is a monthly subscription, it auto-renews, and they hope you forget. The average user updates their CV maybe five times a year — twice during an active job search, then a few small tweaks. Being forced to pay $20–$30 a month for that means paying for the tool to sit idle 95% of the time.
Worse, the renewal works because cancelling is made painful: buried account settings, three warning screens, sometimes a retention call. By then it's easier to leave it running. That math benefits the vendor, not you.
AdaptMyCV doesn't force any of that. Preview every CV for free and pay $4 only when you download one. If you never top up again, your account just sits there. And if unlimited genuinely suits you, the monthly plan is one-click to start and one-click to cancel — no traps.
Three ways to pay — you choose
- Pay per CV — $4. Adapt a CV to a job, preview the full result free, and pay $4 only if you want to download it. No card kept on file.
- 7-day pass — $19, one-time. Unlimited adapts, cover letters and interview prep for a week. A single charge that never renews — ideal for a concentrated application sprint.
- Monthly — $29. Unlimited everything while you're actively searching. Optional, and cancel anytime in one click.

Pay-per-CV vs. going unlimited
Rough monthly math, paying $4 per downloaded CV against a $29/month unlimited plan:
| Use pattern | Pay-per-CV | Unlimited ($29/mo) |
|---|---|---|
| Browsing, no downloads | $0 | $29 |
| 1 CV this month | $4 | $29 |
| 5 CVs this month | $20 | $29 |
| 7 CVs this month | $28 | $29 |
| 12 CVs this month | $48 | $29 |
Break-even is around 7 downloads a month. Below that, pay-per-CV wins; above it, going unlimited does — and for a short intense burst the one-time $19 7-day pass beats both. We're not pretending otherwise.
