A local-first browser extension that tailors your resume, cover letter, and outreach messages to a specific job posting — using an AI provider of your choice, with your own API key, entirely inside your browser.

Your master resume, API keys, and settings are stored in your browser's local extension storage and never sync to any account of ours — there isn't one.
Capture is entirely user-triggered: selecting text on a job posting and choosing "Tailor with resumeBuddy" from the right-click menu. There's no persistent content script reading pages in the background, and no broad site access.

When you generate a tailored resume, cover letter, or outreach message, your resume text and the job posting are sent directly from your browser to whichever AI provider you've chosen and configured with your own API key — Gemini, Groq, OpenRouter, or Anthropic. That request goes straight to the provider; it never passes through a server of ours, because there isn't one.

Handling of that data once it reaches the provider is governed by that provider's own privacy policy and terms, not this one — it's worth reading whichever one applies to the provider you pick.

One honest caveat: browser local storage isn't encrypted at rest. The thing actually protecting your saved API keys is your device staying unlocked and uncompromised, not encryption.
