Everything you want
to know. Answered.

neverapply monitors your Gmail inbox for inbound recruiter emails. When a recruiter reaches out, neverapply automatically generates a tailored resume based on the role they're recruiting for and responds on your behalf — professionally, in under 60 seconds, from your own email address.

You don't see it happen in real time. You find out when you check your sent folder. By then, you're already in the conversation.

neverapply identifies recruiter emails based on sender patterns, subject line signals, email body language, and domain verification. It cross-references against a maintained list of known spam senders and ignores anything that doesn't meet the threshold.

It's not perfect — no filter is. But it errs on the side of responding to borderline emails rather than missing a real opportunity. You can also review your sent folder and your weekly pipeline report to see exactly what went out and to whom.

The response is generated by AI using the recruiter's email as context — the role they're recruiting for, the company, the requirements they mentioned — and your professional profile. It expresses genuine interest, confirms your relevant background, and attaches a tailored resume.

The tone is professional and confident. It does not sound automated. It sounds like you — on a good day, when you had time to write a thoughtful reply.

neverapply responds to the initial outreach and gets you into the conversation. If a recruiter follows up with a specific request — a portfolio link, a cover letter, references — that follow-up lands in your inbox for you to handle personally.

Think of neverapply as your first response. You take it from there. The goal is to make sure you're always in the conversation, never missing the opening because you were busy or asleep.

The pipeline runs on an hourly trigger inside your Google account. When a recruiter email arrives, it's processed and responded to within the next trigger cycle — typically within minutes, always within the hour.

The average human response time to a recruiter email is 16+ hours. Many never respond at all. You're responding before most people have even seen the email.

You do. Completely. neverapply runs as a Gmail add-on inside your own Google account. Your emails, your resume, your profile data — none of it is stored on neverapply servers. There is no neverapply database that contains your personal information.

Your data lives in your Google Drive, your Gmail, and your Google Sheets — all in your account, under your control, accessible only to you.

neverapply scans your inbox for emails that match recruiter patterns. It reads the emails it identifies as recruiter outreach — that's how it generates a relevant response. It does not read, store, or process any other emails in your inbox.

The scanning happens inside your Google account via the Gmail add-on. No email content leaves your account or is transmitted to neverapply servers.

No. neverapply runs in your personal Gmail account — not a work account. Responses go out from your personal email address. Your employer has no visibility into your personal Gmail.

On LinkedIn, we recommend setting your Open to Work status to "visible to recruiters only" — this is a LinkedIn setting that hides the green badge from your network while still surfacing you in recruiter searches. Instructions are on our job boards page.

Free products don't get used. Free products don't get valued. When something costs nothing, it signals that it's worth nothing — and people treat it accordingly. They sign up, never set it up, and wonder why it didn't work.

Paying — even a little — means you're a customer with skin in the game. The research is consistent: people who pay are dramatically more likely to complete setup, use the product, and get results.

With code RECRUITED the price is $33/month, locked for life. That's less than a tank of gas, working for you every hour of every day.

No. Use code RECRUITED at checkout and your rate is $33/month, permanently — the standard price is $200/month, so that's $167 off every month for as long as your subscription stays active. It does not step up after a month, a year, or ever.

Cancel anytime. There's no contract and no cancellation fee.

That depends entirely on what your career is worth to you.

If you're unemployed at $70,000 a year, every week costs you about $1,350. With code RECRUITED, neverapply is $33/month. If it helps you land a role even a few days sooner, it has paid for itself for years.

If you're employed and land a role that pays $10,000 more, that's the next 25 years of neverapply covered by one raise.

If you're a new grad and land your first real job at $55,000, week one covers the next decade of subscriptions.

The question isn't whether $33/month is a lot. The question is what a single recruiter email — answered in 60 seconds instead of ignored — is worth to you.

It sounds right, and it's backwards. You have been paying to get a job your whole life. Tuition — sometimes six figures of it — for a credential whose only purpose was employment. Gas and transit passes to physically get yourself to work. The interview suit, the parking at the career fair, the certification renewal, the résumé writer, the LinkedIn Premium month you forgot to cancel. Nobody calls any of that "paying to work." It's just the cost of being in the game.

The job is a paid position. Getting to it has always cost something. The only real question is whether that money goes toward things that actually move the needle.

A tank of gas gets you to an office you might be laid off from next year. neverapply answers every recruiter who finds you, in under 60 seconds, while you sleep — and one reply that turns into an offer covers years of it. It's the cheapest line in your job-search budget, and the only one with a real shot at paying you back.

The RECRUITED rate — $33/month for life — is reserved for the first 5,000 members. When seat 5,000 is claimed, the code stops working and new members pay the $200/month standard price. Existing members keep their $33 rate for as long as they stay subscribed.

This isn't a marketing tactic. The product runs inside each user's Google account — there are real infrastructure and support costs associated with each user. 5,000 is a real number, not a fake deadline.

No. And the fact that you're asking this question says something important about the asymmetry of the current job market.

Recruiters use AI to search databases of millions of candidates. They use automation to send outreach at scale. They have contact lists, tools, and systems specifically designed to find and contact you faster than you can find them. They are operating with significant technological leverage.

neverapply is your leverage. It responds to inbound interest on your behalf — professionally, accurately, with your real background. You're not misrepresenting yourself. You're not gaming anything. You're just not slow anymore.

The interview is still yours to win. neverapply just makes sure you get the chance.

Our first user outside the founder's own job searches was Dr. Irina Kushnir, a board-certified internal medicine physician. She seeded her resume, we rewrote her LinkedIn and resume in recruiter language, and turned the service on. Recruiter inbound went from one or two every few weeks to two or three a day. Forty-five days after signing up, she had two remote offers to choose from.

In her words: "I don't know if I would have gotten these offers on my own. Maybe I would have — but it would have taken a lot longer, and I'd have been stressing the whole time."

Full disclosure: she is a founding user who worked directly with our founder during onboarding, and the service was still being fine-tuned while she used it. Her recorded interview is embedded on our how to get a job page. Individual results vary.

The response comes from your email address, uses your name, references your real background, and is tailored to the specific role they mentioned. There is nothing in the response that signals automation.

That said — even if a recruiter suspected automation, the response already accomplished its goal: you're in the conversation. The follow-up is you, in person, being yourself. That's where the job is won or lost. neverapply just opens the door.

That's actually the best time to use neverapply.

When you're not desperate, you negotiate differently. When you have three conversations running in the background while you're still employed, you don't accept the first offer that comes along. You have leverage. You have options. You have information about what the market thinks you're currently worth.

neverapply runs quietly. Your employer doesn't know. Your colleagues don't know. Your LinkedIn connections don't know. You just always know what's out there — and you're always positioned to take advantage of it.

You decline politely. "Thank you for reaching out — after learning more, this role isn't the right fit for me right now, but I appreciate the conversation."

This is normal recruiter interaction. Recruiters hear this constantly. It doesn't burn bridges. It actually builds your reputation as someone who is thoughtful about fit — which makes you more attractive for the right role when it comes along.

The alternative — not responding at all — is far more damaging to your professional reputation than a polite decline.

neverapply works anywhere you have a Gmail account and recruiter inbound traffic. The product runs inside your Google account — location doesn't affect how it functions.

The job boards page includes boards for the UK, Australia, Canada, and international roles. If you're in a market where recruiter outreach via email is common, neverapply works for you.
