Cover Letter Writer

Write a tailored cover letter for a specific job that connects your experience to what the employer is looking for, without sounding generic.

Make it yours

Fill in the boxes and the prompt updates as you type. Then copy it and paste it into your AI tool of choice.

The job title as it appears in the advert

Their name, and a word on what they do if it helps

Paste the advert or describe what they are asking for

Relevant experience and what draws you to the role. Notes are fine.

How you want it to come across

Your prompt

I'm applying for a customer service assistant at a local charity that supports older people and need a cover letter.

Here's the job advert or a description of the role:

They want someone friendly, reliable, and good with people who...

Here's my relevant experience and why I'm interested:

I've volunteered at a care home for two years and love...

Please write a cover letter that connects my experience to what they're looking
for. Open with something genuine rather than a stock line, show why I'm a good fit
with specific examples, and keep it to about three short paragraphs. Make the tone
warm and professional.

Tips

The opening line is where most cover letters fall flat, because they all start the same way. Ask the AI for three different openings and pick the one that sounds most like you, then edit it in your own words. Employers can spot a letter that could have been sent to anyone, so the more specific detail you give, the better.

What a good result looks like

A cover letter with a genuine opening, a middle that links your experience to the role with real examples, and a warm close, ready for you to check and personalise.
