Our mission

Fix the part of job searching that was always broken

Most job search tools reward volume. Upload your resume once, fire it at 300 jobs, and hope the numbers work in your favor. The result is a pile of applications that look identical to every other pile - no context, no customization, and a response rate that makes the whole process feel pointless.

We built TryApplyNow because we believed the problem was never how many jobs you applied to - it was how well each application matched the specific role. Our AI evaluates every listing against your real background and gives you an honest match score before you invest a minute of your time. When you do apply, your resume is rewritten specifically for that job, with the language and keywords that matter to that employer.

The result is fewer applications, better responses, and a search that feels like it is moving in the right direction - because it is.

Meet the founder

Built by a job seeker, for job seekers

Hi, I am Jash Patel, the founder of TryApplyNow. I started this company in Jersey City after going through the same job-search grind most people know too well: hundreds of applications, silent rejections, and tools that promised volume instead of fit.

I built TryApplyNow because the part that always felt broken was not how many jobs you applied to, but how little context every application carried. The first version was a weekend project to score my own resume against open roles. It worked well enough that friends started asking for access, and the platform grew from there.

Today I lead product, engineering, and design at TryApplyNow. I read every piece of user feedback that comes in. If something on the platform feels off, there is a good chance I wrote that code, and I want to hear about it. My inbox is open at jash@tryapplynow.com.

What we build

Four tools that actually move the needle

AI Match Scoring

Know your fit before you apply

Every job in your feed gets a 0-100 match score based on your skills, experience, and preferences. Stop wasting time on roles that were never a good fit - focus on the ones where you are competitive.

Resume Tailoring

A resume written for this job, not every job

Our AI rewrites your bullet points, optimizes keywords, and restructures your resume for each specific posting. You review it before it goes anywhere. You stay in control of every word.

Insider Connections

Reach people, not just inboxes

Find emails for recruiters, hiring managers, and internal employees at companies you are targeting. Following up directly is still one of the highest-leverage moves in any job search.

Nova AI Assistant

A job search partner that knows your profile

Nova answers career questions, helps you prep for interviews, reviews your applications, and gives guidance tailored to your specific goals - not generic advice you could find anywhere.

What we stand for

The principles we build around

Quality over volume

One tailored application beats ten copy-pasted ones. We are built for people who want to compete, not just show up.

Transparency by default

You see your match score before you apply. You read your tailored resume before it goes anywhere. No black boxes, no surprises.

Honest about what AI can do

AI Output is a starting point, not a finished product. We tell you that clearly. You are the expert on your own career.

Priced for real job seekers

Pro starts at $19.99/mo - half the price of most alternatives - with a free tier that includes real functionality, not just a teaser.
