Comparison
Salvo vs AIApply
AIApply sells its tools as separate add-ons: a resume and cover letter kit, a mock interview product, and an Auto-Apply credit pack that submits applications on the user's behalf. Salvo bundles applying and interview prep into one service, free for job seekers. The two split the cost differently, so a fair look means comparing what each dollar actually buys.
