Juggling multiple jobs, freelancing, and career transitions make frequent cover letter writing a burden. Covered simplifies the process. Define your target job level to ensure relevant information in your cover letter. Personalize your message by addressing the hiring manager by name and mentioning the specific job title. Choose the desired tone and length, highlight required skills, and easily integrate them from the job description itself. With AI assistance, Covered generates a proofread cover letter for each application. Edit it within the app before exporting it to Word, PDF, or simply copying the text. These features are the culmination of research across hundreds of job boards, streamlined into a user-friendly app.
The app adopts a clean, book-like aesthetic. Serif fonts, cream and beige palettes with a touch of warm green create a sense of simplicity and professionalism. The logo, a stacked paper effect, cleverly references a literal cover sheet. The tagline, "We Got You Covered," integrates puns and wordplay. The interface, designed in Figma, is presented as an interactive, high-fidelity prototype.
Beyond composing tailored cover letters, Covered provides additional features to enhance your job search success. You can save past letters, track submission dates, set follow up reminders for hiring managers, and even access a library of cover letters from successful applicants. Additionally, the app offers expert tips and tricks to further refine your writing and land your dream job.
