Step-by-Step

Quick Start in 4 Easy Steps

Autocater was built for everyday people. You don't need any technical skills, developer accounts, or configuration to use it.

Pro Tip: Pin Autocater to your toolbar. Click the puzzle icon in the top-right of your browser and click the pin icon next to Autocater so your profiles are always one click away.
1

Add Your Details in Seconds

Click the Autocater icon in your browser to get started. You only need to set up your details once:

  • Drop in Your Resume: Drop in your resume PDF or click CV. Autocater automatically reads your name, email, phone number, and links so you don't have to type them out by hand.
  • Easy to Edit: Want to make adjustments? You can type or update any detail directly inside the extension whenever you want.
  • 100% Private: Your personal information never leaves your computer. No accounts required, no tracking, and no external servers.
2

Create Profiles for Different Jobs

Easily switch between different types of roles without retyping your information every time:

  • Multiple Job Profiles: Click + New to save different versions of your profile (for example, applying for a Manager role vs. an Assistant role, or Full-Time vs. Contract).
  • Save Common Answers: Set your earliest start date and work eligibility answers once so you never have to click through repetitive dropdown questions on job sites.
  • Switch in One Click: Change your active profile anytime directly from the top menu.
3

Open Any Job Application Page

Browse to any job posting on the web just like you normally do:

  • Works on Every Major Job Site: Autocater automatically recognizes almost every modern job application form.
  • Helpful, Never in the Way: When an application form appears, a neat [ ✦ Autofill with Autocater ] button appears quietly in the bottom-right corner of your screen.
  • Only When You Need It: It only appears on actual job application forms—it stays completely hidden when you are browsing articles, social media, or search results.
4

Click Once to Fill and Review

Let Autocater fill in the form fields for you in less than a second:

  • One-Click Filling: Click the button, and your details instantly fill into the application form with green checkmarks.
  • No More Copy-Pasting: No need to switch between tabs to copy your phone number, past experience, or profile links.
  • You're Always in Control: Autocater never submits the form for you. You can review your information, add any extra notes, and click "Submit" whenever you are ready.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Which browsers does Autocater support?
Autocater runs natively on all Chromium-based browsers (~85%+ of global desktop traffic), including Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Brave, Opera & Opera GX, Vivaldi, and Arc. Because it is written according to modern W3C WebExtensions standards with 100% Vanilla JavaScript, it is also architecturally ready for Mozilla Firefox (Manifest V3 Gecko) and Safari.
Does Autocater store my resume on the internet?
No, never. Autocater is built with a strict local-first architecture. Your contact details, resume text, and profiles are saved directly on your computer in your browser's private local storage. We do not have servers storing your resume.
Will Autocater submit my application automatically without me looking?
Never. Autocater is an assistive tool that populates the inputs on your screen. You always remain in complete control to review every answer before you manually click "Next" or "Submit Application".
Can I create multiple profiles (e.g. for different types of jobs)?
Yes! Click the "+ New" button in the extension popup to create multiple tailored profiles (for example, "Product Manager", "Software Engineer", or "Remote Roles"). You can switch between them with one click.
What should I do if a custom question on a form doesn't fill?
You can add any unique question as a Custom Field. In the popup, click "+ Add Field", type the name of the question and your default answer. Next time you encounter that question on any company site, Autocater will fill it automatically.
How do I backup my profiles or move them to a new computer?
Open the extension Settings (the gear icon ⚙) and click "Export JSON" (Backup Profiles). It saves a safe backup file to your computer. On your new laptop, simply click "Import JSON" to restore all your profiles in 1 second.
Why does Autocater block Word (.docx) resumes?
For your safety! Word files can contain hidden executable macros and malicious scripts. Autocater accepts clean, secure PDF files and parses them locally without security risks.
