The short version

AIApply is a subscription. Their site says it applies for you, resume tailored per job, cover letters, builds a resume with you, interview assistant. It does not no subscription or refund when it fails. Their site does not say whether it checks eligibility (location, visa), employer replies in one inbox, proof of each submission.

Break-In Bad covers the whole search in one plan: it checks eligibility before anything else, prepares your resume with Omar, writes a tailored resume and cover letter per job, applies on employer sites with a screenshot as proof, brings replies into one inbox with interview alerts, and goes into the interview with you as an invisible on-screen assistant. One credit per submitted application, refunded if it fails on our side, no subscription, and credits never expire.

Auto Apply prices are from the upgrade screen inside an AIApply account, which shows only Auto Apply plans; its site shows no prices before sign-up. The resume builder, cover letters and Interview Buddy are priced separately and we did not see those prices. Its terms say subscriptions renew automatically, applications use credits, and Auto-Apply is non-refundable once applications have been submitted. Claims 2M+ users.
