Email Your Team

Send each application to multiple recipients - hiring managers, HR, department heads. Customize the subject line and email template.

Export & Review

Download all applications as CSV. Import to your ATS, spreadsheet, or review tool. No limits, no paywalls.

File Management

Accept resumes (PDF, DOCX), portfolios, and cover letters up to 10MB per file.

Spam Protection

Built-in filtering keeps out fake submissions. Focus on real candidates.
