Draft your profile summary from your CV

Upload your CV, get a first draft of your profile summary, then edit it before you save.

What it does

Your public profile summary is what organisations read before they book you, and a blank box is hard to start. On your profile, under Biography, you can upload your CV as a PDF or paste the text. Sessional drafts a short professional summary from it.

Your CV is saved to your documents

When you upload a CV as a file, a copy is saved to your document store under the CV category, so you have it to hand to reuse or share later. You can rename, recategorise, or delete it there at any time. Pasted text is not saved.

It only summarises

Important
The draft is built only from what is in your CV. It will not add qualifications, registrations, or experience you did not include. Always read it and edit before saving, especially anything a future organisation will rely on.

Your data and privacy

What is sent

To draft the summary, the text of your CV is sent to our AI provider, Anthropic, through the Claude API.

What is retained

Your CV is never used to train AI models, and the extracted text is not retained after the draft is generated.

The saved file in your documents is separate, and yours to delete. See how we handle AI data for the full detail.

Frequently asked questions

Which plan do I need?
The CV summary tool is available on every plan, including Basic, as a setup aid.
My PDF would not read. What happened?
Some CVs are scans or images rather than text, so there is nothing to extract. Paste your CV text into the box instead and it will work the same way.
Will it overwrite my existing biography?
It replaces the text in the Biography box with the draft so you can edit from there, but nothing is saved until you press Save. If you change your mind, leave the page without saving.
