Lumen helps you save 15 hours per week automating the tedious parts of your job application process.
Hundreds apply. Recruiters spend less than 0 seconds per application. That brief scan demands immediate impact to even be considered.
Generic fails, so you invest 1-3 hours per application manually tailoring. It's a necessary grind, but feels inefficient for someone at your level.
Basic AI tools churn out generic fluff and often hallucinate. You need precision and authenticity, not vague templates.
This exhausting cycle of high effort and uncertainty leads to self-doubt and frustration, even when you know you're perfect for the role.
Like a truly great job coach, Lumen is working besides you. Screening in seconds if your skills match the job. Asking pointed questions to surface your best achievements. Drafting ready-to-send resume and cover letter for each specific job, so you don't have to lose any time on the hiring process.
Lumen gives you an immediate, unbiased recruitment screening breakdown (ATS) of your fit against the job description. You also receive key findings to strengthen your job match.
Through intelligent questions based on your experience and the job's needs, we refine your narrative together. You don't have to become a resume copy writer. Just simply answer the questions and let Lumen frame it perfectly.

Everything you need to know about getting started with Lumen Career
You've likely already tried it, right? While ChatGPT (or similar tools) are powerful for general tasks, you've probably also felt the friction when it comes to job applications. It's not just the time spent mastering prompts; it's the frustrating cycle of back-and-forth, trying to ensure it grasps the nuances of your experience against a specific job. And then there's the critical risk: generic text, or worse, 'hallucinated' content that invents experience you don't actually have.
ChatGPT is engineered for many tasks, from cooking recipes to construction advice. Lumen is engineered exclusively for your career advancement. We've built Lumen from the ground up, embedding deep, specialized knowledge of what makes a successful job application truly effective. It's not just about understanding keywords; it's about crafting compelling narratives that resonate with recruiters and can accelerate your job search.
So, while you could wrestle with ChatGPT and eventually get something decent, Lumen offers a smarter, more direct path. It's about transforming hours of potential frustration into a focused, collaborative process that yields truly authentic applications.
But don't take our word for it! You can try Lumen for free, so feel free to compare it with ChatGPT and experience what we mean!
There are many 'AI resume tools' out there, and before designing Lumen, we tested them extensively because we were job seekers ourselves. We didn't feel they were useful for us, which is why we built Lumen. Here's what sets us apart:
1. Deeper Contextual Understanding: Beyond Simple Keyword Matching Lumen's core difference is *how* we understand your story against the job you want. It's about genuine depth. Many tools rely on surface-level keyword matching, which can be superficial or even misleading. Lumen uses advanced AI reasoning to grasp the full context, understanding true meaning and nuance, not just isolated keywords.
2. Strong Commitment to Quality & AI Integrity This deep understanding is our core philosophy. We invest heavily in advanced AI to truly understand your experience and, critically, to avoid the damaging 'hallucinations' (invented details or experiences that some tools unfortunately produce). Your career is a serious responsibility to us; this means significant investment on our end in the best possible AI intelligence available, but we believe there are no shortcuts when you're trusting us with your professional future.
But please, see for yourself. Try other tools, then try Lumen. Compare the quality of the output, the insights you receive, and the time saved. We believe you'll experience the Lumen difference firsthand.
Serious professionals often spend 1 to 3 hours getting the CV and cover letter right for each job. If you're hitting 10 applications a week, that's easily 10 to 30 hours burned just on tweaking documents.
Lumen cuts that down drastically. Our users typically spend just 10-20 minutes per application.
We get you there faster by:
Bottom line: If you apply to 10 jobs a week, you could realistically save anywhere from 7 to 28 hours.
