Documentation
Welcome to the Yotru documentation! This guide is designed to help you explore the features and functionality of Yotru – a professional resume builder that helps anyone create job-ready resumes with AI in minutes.
Getting Started
What is Yotru?
Yotru is a smart, AI-assisted resume builder made for real-world job seekers, especially those early in their careers or looking for a fresh start.
Instead of working through rigid templates, you collaborate with an AI chat assistant that helps generate, reword, and refine your content. You can also manually tweak everything through the Line Editor.
Tip: Use AI to generate a first draft, then fine-tune it using the Line Editor for full control.
What to Expect
Yotru is designed to get you building a polished, tailored resume in minutes. Here's what you can look forward to as you get started immediately:
- Start from scratch or upload your existing resume.
- Enjoy a 10-minute free trial with full access to all features.
- Watch your resume preview update in real time as you edit.
- Download, save, and version your resume at any time.
Account Setup
You don't need to create an account immediately. After your 10-minute free trial expires, you'll be prompted to register to:
- Save your progress
- Access version history
- Download your resume
First, choose how to start:
If starting from an existing resume,
- Upload a PDF: Yotru's AI extracts and organizes your content into clean, editable sections.
- Paste plain text: We format raw content into structured resume blocks.
If starting from scratch, use a blank template and build section-by-section.
Tip: Starting from scratch? Begin with Skills, Experience, or Summary to help the AI tailor stronger suggestions.
Next, you'll be prompted to input some basic info such as your Experience Level, desired Job Title and Full Name, to tailor your resume experience.
Register Your Account
After your 10-minute free trial, you'll be prompted to register and purchase an access pass to continue building and unlock all features.

Using Yotru
Chat Field
The Chat Field is your built-in resume co-writer. Instead of rewriting lines manually, you can type exactly what you need as an instruction. Try commands like:
- "Rewrite this to sound more formal."
- "Add a stronger action verb."
- "Summarize this in two lines."
Tip: Start prompts with clear actions like: embellish, refine, condense, optimize.
Common Prompts & Use Cases
Goal | Prompt |
---|---|
Improve tone | "Embellish this to sound more professional." |
Focus on a role | "Optimize for a marketing assistant position." |
Condense | "Shorten this to two lines." |
Adjust tone | "Make it sound more confident." |
Add bullets | "Add 2 bullets about customer service and multitasking." |
Tip: Combine instructions in one prompt. E.g., "Add a bullet on leadership, then shorten the summary."
Smart Suggestions
At the top of the chat box, you'll find quick-action buttons. These commands instantly apply helpful edits to the last section you discussed, making your content clearer and job-ready in just one click.
Additionally, use the AI Coach Suggestions to get personalized tips on how to improve each section.

Tip: Want quick edits without typing? Use Canned Commands — one-click tools that refine your content instantly.
Resume Display
As you work, your resume preview updates in real time. From this panel, you can:
- Undo/redo changes
- Track edits
- Save versions
- Export to PDF/Word

Version History
Version History is where you can browse previous versions of your resume and restore any past edits if needed.
Customize Resume
Personalize your resume by choosing from four templates from the Change Template feature:
- Minimalist – Simple and clean
- Modern – Contemporary with visual hierarchy
- Classic – Traditional with classic fonts
- Elegant – Sophisticated and polished
Tip: Add a custom accent color to make your resume stand out. Use the color picker or enter a hex code.
Save Changes
Although your work saves automatically as you go, Save lets you manually capture a version at any point for added peace of mind or future reference.
Exporting your Resume
Once you're happy with your resume, you can export it directly as:
- Word (.docx) format
Tip: With an active access pass, you can export your resume anytime during your access period. Click on the pricing icon on the left sidebar to view available time-based passes.
AI Limitations
At Yotru, we believe in transparency. While our AI helps generate resumes based on your input, it may sometimes over-polish, misread vague inputs, or generate details that need fact-checking.
We encourage you to carefully review and tailor the final output to ensure accuracy and alignment with your experience.
Resume Building Best Practices
Yotru isn't just about formatting, it's a tool to help you build targeted, high-impact resumes. Here are tips to maximize your results:
- Create versions for each job: Rename each to stay organized (e.g., "Tech Sales / Entry-Level").
- Paste job descriptions: AI will tune tone and keywords accordingly.
- Include measurable outcomes: Add metrics like "boosted customer satisfaction by 25%."
- Export both formats: Use PDF for layout, Word for edits and last minute tweaks.
