Do I need an account?
No. Install the extension and start saving jobs. There is nothing to sign up for, and your data is never sent to us.
How do I save a job?
On a job page, click the Plied icon in the toolbar, right-click the page and choose Save job, or press Alt Shift S. Plied fills in the title, company, location, salary and description. Check them and click Save.
How does Plied know I applied?
On the job boards and application systems you allow, Plied notices the “thank you for applying” page and logs the application for you, with an Undo button. You can also mark a job as applied yourself, or log an application you sent by email.
Why does Plied ask for access to some sites?
To show the save button, the “already applied” badge and to notice “thank you” pages, Plied needs to read those pages. It asks for each group of sites separately (job boards, application systems, Gmail) and explains why first. Plied never asks for access to all websites, and you can remove access at any time.
Does Plied read my emails?
Only if you turn on inbox updates, and only the list of rows Gmail already shows: sender, subject, the short preview and the date. Plied never opens an email, never reads email bodies or attachments, never uses the Gmail API and never sends, deletes or changes email.
What is a “possible ghost job”?
A job that may not be actively hiring: for example, it has been online for months, was reposted many times or lists no salary. Plied shows a score and every reason behind it. It is only a hint from public signals. The job may still be real.
What happens to my data if I remove Plied?
Removing the extension deletes its data from your browser. Export a JSON file first (Settings › Data) if you want to keep it, and import it again later.
Does it work in Edge or Firefox?
Plied works in Chrome and in Microsoft Edge (which can install Chrome extensions). Firefox is on our list for later.
Will Plied apply for me?
No. Plied doesn’t auto-apply, doesn’t fill in application forms and never reads what you type into them. It helps you keep track of what you did.
