Cover Letter

A confident, tailored letter for the job you want.

This usually takes a few seconds.

About the Cover Letter

The Cover Letter Generator drafts a short, professional letter for a specific job. You give it the company, the role and your strongest points, and it writes an opening, a middle that connects your strengths to the job, and a polite close, in roughly 250 to 350 words.

A good cover letter is specific to one employer. Use the draft to get past the blank page, then add the details only you can supply.

Who it's for

  • Applicants who find the first paragraph of a cover letter hard to start.
  • People applying to several roles who want a fast first draft for each one.
  • Career changers explaining why their background fits a new field.
  • Non-native English speakers who want a clear, professional structure to edit.

How to use it

  1. Type the company name and the exact role from the job ad.
  2. Describe your strengths: relevant experience, skills and one or two results you are proud of.
  3. Click Generate and read the draft.
  4. Add one specific detail about the company, such as a product, project or value that interests you.
  5. Edit the wording until it sounds like you, then check names and spelling before you send it.

Tips for better results

  • Name the specific result behind each strength. "Improved onboarding" is weak. "Cut onboarding from three weeks to ten days" is a reason to call you.
  • Mention something real about the company. A letter that could be sent to any employer reads like it was.
  • Address the letter to a named person when the ad or the company's website gives one.
  • Keep it to one page. Cut any sentence that repeats your resume without adding a reason you fit.
  • Read the final version aloud. If a sentence sounds like something you would never say, rewrite it.

What you get

Dear Hiring Team, I am excited to apply for the Product Manager role at Brightwater Health. For five years I have led product teams in healthcare software, and I would like to bring that experience to your mission of making care easier to reach. Most recently I launched a patient scheduling app now used by 40 clinics. The work began with user interviews, which I turned into a short list of priorities the whole team could rally around. That habit, listening closely and then deciding clearly, is what I do best. I would welcome the chance to discuss how I can help Brightwater Health's product team. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, [Your name]

Frequently asked questions

How long should a cover letter be?

Aim for one page, around 250 to 350 words. Hiring managers read many letters, and a focused short one beats a long general one.

Do I need a cover letter if the job ad doesn't ask for one?

It is often optional, but a good one can help, especially when your resume doesn't make an obvious case for the role. If the ad says not to send one, follow the ad.

Will employers know I used AI?

Generic wording is the giveaway, not the tool. Add specific details from your own experience and from the company, and rewrite sentences in your own voice, and the letter will read as yours.

Can I use the same letter for every job?

Use the same structure, but change the company, the role and the evidence you choose each time. A letter that could go to any employer is easy to spot.
