The Chrome extension is launching soon. The docs below describe how it works at release. If you want early access, email support@yoinka.com.
What makes it different
- Vanilla, zero-dep — the extension has no build step and no external runtime dependencies. It’s fast (< 50KB on disk) and doesn’t slow your browser.
- Per-ATS adapters — instead of one flaky “try to fill anything” heuristic, each supported ATS has a dedicated adapter that knows its form quirks.
- Local resume parsing — your resume never leaves the browser for text extraction. Only the parsed contact/work/education fields sync to your Yoinka account.
- Account sync — sign in once and your profile auto-syncs across every browser you use the extension in.
How it works
- Install the extension (see Install).
- Sign in — click the icon, click “Connect Yoinka account”. A browser tab opens to yoinka.com; after sign-in you’re dropped back.
- Open a job application on any supported site.
- Click the Yoinka button (floating pill, bottom-right of the form, or the extension icon in the toolbar).
- The form fills in ~1 second. Review, attach the resume file if the ATS needs it, submit.
Privacy
- The extension only runs on domains you explicitly grant via
host_permissionsin the manifest. - Resume text extraction happens locally — the PDF/DOCX never leaves your browser for parsing.
- Only the parsed structured data (contact, work history, etc.) syncs to your account, and only if you’re signed in.
