Terms
The short version. You pay $19.99 a month. You pay a small extra fee only when an employer moves you forward: mainly when a real person invites you to an interview. We only use true facts about you. You can cancel at any time and we delete your data.
1. Who provides Hackly
Hackly ("we", "us") is provided by Hackly Technology, Inc., a Delaware company, 131 Continental Dr, Suite 305, Newark, DE 19713, USA. Contact: support@hackly.me. By using Hackly on Telegram you agree to these terms.
2. What Hackly does
Hackly finds jobs that fit what you tell us, writes a CV for each one, and applies for you. When a form asks something we cannot answer from what you gave us, we ask you on Telegram first.
You allow us to fill in and submit applications in your name, and to create an account on a job site for you where the site needs one.
3. True facts only
We only put facts on a CV or form that you gave us. We do not invent experience, grades or employers. Please give us true information. You are responsible for what is sent in your name, so check the CV and answers when we show them to you.
Hackly uses AI to help write CVs and answers. We check every claim against the facts you gave us, but you should still read what is sent.
4. What it costs
$19.99 a month for the service, taken by Stripe at the start of each month. It includes 300 credits every 30 days: one credit is one application sent and confirmed, at most 15 a day and 84 a week. Credits are not money, cannot be bought separately and do not carry over.
An interview fee, when a real person at the company invites you to an interview (by phone, video call or in person), as a percentage of the job's yearly pay. It depends on the employer:
| Employer | Fee |
|---|---|
| Standard: any employer not on our list | 0.1% |
| Highly competitive employers | 0.15% |
| Most competitive employers | 0.2% |
- The listed employers are on our Employer rates page. The rate listed there when the invitation arrives is the one that applies.
- We charge it once per job, however many interview rounds follow.
- An online test is free at any employer not on our list. At a listed employer it is 0.01% of the job's yearly pay, once per job, added to your next monthly payment; it is never charged on its own.
- Recorded (one-way) video interviews, assessments, auto-replies and rejections are free. We send you test, video and assessment invitations as soon as we have checked them, without waiting for any payment.
- When an interview invitation reaches your Hackly mailbox, we tell you straight away which company it is from and send you a card to pay its fee. You pay with one tap, using the card you added, or on Stripe's page. Once it is paid, we send you the invitation and its link.
- If you think a fee is wrong, tell us in the chat. A person checks it and refunds it if it was wrong.
- If a job does not show its pay, we use $40,000 a year.
- Prices may be shown with or without tax, as the law requires where you live.
5. Cancelling
You can cancel at any time by messaging us "cancel" on Telegram, or by emailing us. Cancelling stops the monthly charge and stops all new applications. Fees you had already reached stay payable.
When you cancel, we delete your data as described in our Privacy page.
6. The 90-day guarantee
If you get no test within 90 days of your first application, you can have a free 30-minute call with a founder. It is one call per person. This is a call, not a refund and not a promise of an interview or offer.
7. What we cannot promise
- We cannot promise interviews, offers or any result. Employers decide, not us.
- We are not an employer or a recruiter, and we are not linked to the employers we apply to.
- We do not give immigration, legal or career advice. If a job has right-to-work or eligibility rules, you are responsible for checking you meet them.
- Job sites and Telegram can change or go down, which can delay or stop an application.
8. Using Hackly
- You must be 18 or over.
- Use only your own details, or details you have the right to use.
- Do not use Hackly to send false information, or to harass or mislead anyone.
- We may stop the service for someone who breaks these rules.
9. Our responsibility
Nothing in these terms limits any right you have by law, or our responsibility for things the law does not let us limit. Subject to that, we are not responsible for losses that were not a likely result of our mistake, and our total responsibility to you is limited to what you paid us in the 12 months before the problem.
10. Changes
If we change these terms or the prices in a way that matters, we will tell you on Telegram before it applies to you. If you do not agree, you can cancel.
11. Your data
How we handle your data is on our Privacy page.
