What ChatGPT does better
We are not going to pretend ChatGPT has no advantages. Here is where they genuinely do well:
- +Free tier is genuinely useful for brainstorming bullet points and rephrasing sentences.
- +Handles any writing task, not just resumes. You can draft cover letters, LinkedIn posts, and follow-up emails in the same conversation.
- +Widely available with no signup friction. Most people already have an account.
- +Good at generating first drafts when you give it detailed prompts.
What Fitted does better
- +Built specifically for resumes and job applications. Every feature exists to help you get interviews.
- +ATS keyword matching and scoring against the actual job description you paste in.
- +Saves your resume and tracks applications across multiple jobs.
- +Interview prep generates practice questions based on the specific job posting.
- +AI Job Risk Score shows how likely the role is to be affected by automation.
Frequently asked questions
- Can I just use ChatGPT to tailor my resume for free?
- You can, but you will spend a lot of time prompting it correctly, pasting in job descriptions, and manually checking for missing keywords. Fitted does all of that automatically in under a minute and gives you an ATS match score.
- Does ChatGPT check for ATS compatibility?
- No. ChatGPT does not analyze your resume against ATS keyword requirements. It can rewrite text, but it cannot tell you which specific keywords from a job posting you are missing or score your resume's match rate.
- Is Fitted worth $5/mo if I already pay for ChatGPT Plus?
- If you are actively job searching, yes. ChatGPT is a general writing tool. Fitted is purpose-built for job applications: it matches keywords, scores your resume, generates targeted cover letters, and prepares you for interviews based on the actual posting.
