The honest answers
Do I need an account?
No. Upload your CV, get your score, and pay £5 only if you want the rewrite. No login required, and your CV is never stored in plain text.
Is the £5 rewrite a subscription?
No. The £5 rewrite is a genuine one-off payment. Pro (£12.99/mo) is optional — only worth it if you're applying constantly and want unlimited rewrites.
What do I get back?
A fully rewritten, ATS-optimised version of your CV as a Word document (.docx) — editable in Microsoft Word and Google Docs. Emailed to you as a backup too.
Will my CV be stored?
Your original CV is processed in-session and never stored on our servers. The AI-optimised version is saved to private storage, encrypted at rest at the infrastructure level, for you to download from your account.
Does the rewrite invent experience I don't have?
Never. Shadow CV is an editor, not an inventor. It restructures and rephrases what's already in your CV, integrating missing keywords only where your existing experience genuinely supports them.
