## What it does

**Done-for-you service** · No — Self-serve subscription software you operate yourself: no human team runs the hunt, and the vendor explicitly disclaims being a recruiter or employment agency.

> NeverApply is a tool for your job search. We are not a recruiter, employment agency, or agent of any employer, and we do not guarantee interviews, offers, or employment.
> — https://neverapply.co/terms · Terms of Service, 'The service and job listings' section, closing paragraph

## How much it does unattended

**Runs autonomously** · Yes — Autopilot dispatches applications unsupervised inside your filters and a daily ceiling of 5 on Pro or 15 on Max; Send mode submits without pausing.

> The number of applications the agent will dispatch unsupervised each day.
> — https://neverapply.co/pricing · Credits & limits section, 'Autopilot is the daily ceiling' callout beneath the plan comparison table

**Multi-agent** · No — The vendor frames one agent doing every stage; nothing describes several agents coordinating, and Envoy, the second agent, is labelled coming soon.

> The agent scans every new role, filters the noise, tailors your resume, applies on your behalf, tracks the pipeline, and briefs you for the interview.
> — https://neverapply.co/features · Features index, standfirst paragraph under the page heading

**Agent permissions** · Yes — Guardrails are explicit and pre-set by you: Ask pauses on a missing required answer, Send composes and submits, plus a daily cap, skip-list and minimum gap between sends.

> A daily cap, companies to skip, a minimum gap between submissions, and your Send or Ask choice.
> — https://neverapply.co/features/auto-apply · Capabilities section, 'You set the rules. It never crosses them.' card

## Which models it runs on

**Claude** · No — The vendor's enumerated model providers are OpenAI, Google Gemini and unnamed Cloudflare fallbacks; Anthropic is absent, and Claude appears only as an MCP client that queries your hunt.

> primarily OpenAI, routed through Cloudflare's AI Gateway, with Google Gemini used for job-matching embeddings and certain fallback models run on Cloudflare
> — https://neverapply.co/privacy · Privacy Policy, 'AI processing' section, first paragraph

**GPT** · Yes — OpenAI is the primary model behind resume parsing, tailoring, chat and auto-apply, called through Cloudflare's AI Gateway rather than direct.

> primarily OpenAI, routed through Cloudflare's AI Gateway, with Google Gemini used for job-matching embeddings and certain fallback models run on Cloudflare
> — https://neverapply.co/privacy · Privacy Policy, 'AI processing' section, first paragraph

**Model choice** · No — The vendor picks the model and sells it as a tier: Free and Pro get 'Standard', Max gets the best model. No user-facing model selector is documented.

## Where you use it

**In your editor** · Partly — Only through the MCP connector: AI editors such as Cursor, Windsurf and Zed can query your hunt, but there is no NeverApply extension and the editor cannot run the hunt itself.

> The big four, the indie chat apps, the AI editors: Otto's connection speaks MCP, the open standard they all understand, so the list keeps growing on its own.
> — https://neverapply.co/features/mcp · 'Works where you chat' section, standfirst above the client logo rows

**On the command line** · No — The vendor names its live and planned surfaces as the web dashboard and a Telegram bot; no terminal or command-line surface appears anywhere on the site.

> Live today: the web dashboard. Planned next: a Telegram bot you can ping while walking the dog.
> — https://neverapply.co · Homepage, 'Telegram agent' card in the 'Beyond the basics' section

**In a browser** · Yes — The hosted dashboard is the only shipped control plane: matches, tracker, Resume Studio, Otto chat and Autopilot settings all live there.

> Live today: the web dashboard. Planned next: a Telegram bot you can ping while walking the dog.
> — https://neverapply.co · Homepage, 'Telegram agent' card in the 'Beyond the basics' section

## Whose machine it runs on

**Self-hosted** · No — Hosted only: the vendor stores your documents in its own cloud and runs the submitting browser tooling itself, and no tier on the comparison table offers a deployment option.

> Applications are completed through automated browser tooling using the saved and, in Send, agent-composed data authorized for that application.
> — https://neverapply.co/privacy · Privacy Policy, 'Applying to jobs on your behalf' section, second bullet

**Open source** · No — Closed source and owned outright by the operating company; the terms also forbid scraping or reselling access, and no repository is linked from the site.

> The NeverApply software, design, brand, and content we author are owned by Kasovy LLC or its licensors.
> — https://neverapply.co/terms · Terms of Service, 'Intellectual property' section

## What it costs to run

**How it meters** · Yes — Two meters stacked: a monthly subscription per person, then one credit per application, refunded only if the run fails before any submission attempt.

> Every application costs 1 credit; if it fails before any submission attempt, the credit is returned.
> — https://neverapply.co · Homepage FAQ, 'What ATSes do you support?' answer

**Free tier** · Yes — A standing $0 plan with no card and no time limit, including ten lifetime auto-applies, so the agent can be watched applying before you pay.

> Meet your agent: it finds your matches and applies to your first 10, hands-free. No card, no clock.
> — https://neverapply.co/pricing · Free plan card, description under the plan name

**API access** · Partly — An API and MCP server exist and can submit applications, but write and apply scopes need Pro and no public API reference or rate-limit table is published.

> NeverApply exposes an API and MCP server so you can use your account from AI assistants and other tools.
> — https://neverapply.co/terms · Terms of Service, 'API and connected AI tools' section, first paragraph

**MCP server** · Partly — Every account can connect an assistant read-only at 25 reads a day; unlimited reads plus write and apply scopes start on Pro, and the homepage still badges MCP as Beta.

> Reading is free for every account; writing and applying are scopes you grant on Pro.
> — https://neverapply.co/features/mcp · 'Why the answers hold up' section, 'You hold the key.' card

**Bring your own key** · No — Inference is the vendor's and priced into the tier; the key you paste when connecting MCP is a NeverApply account token, not an LLM key, and no BYO-cloud path exists.

> Our best AI model on chat, tailoring & prep
> — https://neverapply.co/pricing · Max plan card, 'Everything in Pro, plus' bullet list

## Buying it for a team

**A company can buy it** · No — Three individual plans only, and the terms bind the account to one person's own search, so there is no team or organisation purchase path.

> You must provide accurate information, keep your account credentials secure, and use the service only for your own genuine job search.
> — https://neverapply.co/terms · Terms of Service, 'Acceptance and eligibility' section, third paragraph

**Seat model** · No — One account per job seeker with no seat count, minimum or ceiling; applying for somebody else is explicitly prohibited rather than sold as extra seats.

> Provide false information in your profile or applications, or apply on behalf of someone else.
> — https://neverapply.co/terms · Terms of Service, 'Acceptable use' section, first prohibited item

**Audit log** · Partly — Every agent action is receipted for the user — fields, answers, confirmation, timestamp and a proof screenshot — but there is no administrative audit log, because there is no admin.

> The filled fields, answers, confirmation, proof screenshot and submitted timestamp are saved with the tracker receipt.
> — https://neverapply.co/features/auto-apply · 'How it works' section, step 04 'Files every receipt.'

**Single sign-on** · No — Consumer sign-in only: password, Google or LinkedIn social login, with optional 2FA. No SAML or OIDC tenant SSO is named on any page of the site.

> password (stored hashed) or social sign-in identity (Google or LinkedIn), two-factor authentication secrets if you enable them
> — https://neverapply.co/privacy · Privacy Policy, 'Information we collect' section, 'Account and profile data' paragraph

## What happens to your code

**Opt out of training** · Partly — The vendor states its AI providers do not train on your content under their API terms, but publishes no opt-out switch and says nothing about its own model training beyond matching embeddings.

> which do not use your content to train their models under their API terms
> — https://neverapply.co/privacy · Privacy Policy, 'AI processing' section, first paragraph, closing clause

**Data residency** · Partly — Resume and document files sit in the EU, but the AI, analytics and payment providers are US-based and the contract is Wyoming law; no region choice is offered to the buyer.

> Your resume and document files are stored in the European Union (AWS eu-central-1)
> — https://neverapply.co/privacy · Privacy Policy, 'International transfers' section

**Getting out** · Partly — Account deletion is an immediate hard delete and tracker rows export to CSV, but monthly credits never roll over and purchased packs die 12 months after purchase.

> Auto-apply credits refill monthly with your plan and do not roll into a later plan month. One-time credit packs top up that balance and expire 12 months after purchase.
> — https://neverapply.co/terms · Terms of Service, 'Subscriptions, credits, and billing' section, 'Credits' bullet

**Certifications** · Partly — GDPR and CCPA rights are honoured for every user and card handling is delegated to Stripe, but no SOC 2, ISO 27001 or HIPAA claim appears anywhere on the site.

> We honor such requests from all users, not just where the law requires it.
> — https://neverapply.co/privacy · Privacy Policy, 'Your rights' section, second paragraph (following the GDPR and CCPA sentence)
