## Why CV Chap Chap exists: making a CV should be easy, fast and cheap

### Easy: a flow, not a design tool

Most CV tools hand you a blank page and a template to fill. CV Chap Chap asks the questions a good career adviser would ask, writes the lines with you, and lays the CV out for you. Nobody fights fonts, spacing or text boxes, or squeezes a career onto one page by hand.

### Fast: from what you already have

Start from a chat with the AI CV Agent, a LinkedIn profile link, an old CV in PDF or Word, or a photo of a paper CV. The whole CV appears in a clean design within minutes, and you see it before you pay anything.

### Cheap: pay once, keep it

One payment of US$3 per CV, with free edits after. No trial that turns into a bill every four weeks, and mobile money where cards are rare. The things that help you get there are free: the preview, the ATS check and cover letters.
