Voice is the New Resume: PitchMeAI Launches AI That Crafts Job Applications From 30 Seconds of Speech
In a job market flooded with hundreds of applications per opening, this startup claims its voice-powered tool gives candidates a surprising edge, slashing resume creation time and bypassing application black holes.
United States, April 15, 2025 -- Users can forget about staring at a blank screen or wrestling with clunky templates. PitchMeAI just dropped a bombshell on the traditional job application process: the world's first Voice-to-Resume tool. In a move set to shake up the recruitment tech space, the company claims users can now generate a polished, professional resume simply by speaking for 30 seconds.
In today's hyper-competitive job market, where premier roles attract an average of 250+ applications and 75% of resumes are reportedly rejected by Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) before a human ever sees them, standing out is paramount. Job seekers often spend hours, sometimes days, agonizing over resume content and formatting. PitchMeAI argues its new technology obliterates this pain point.
'The reality is, writing a compelling resume is a barrier for millions,' says Olivia Cooper from PitchMeAI. 'Whether it's language difficulties, lack of writing confidence, or simply the sheer time drain, the process is broken. We're leveraging AI to level the playing field.'
The premise is startlingly simple: Users talk for half a minute about their experience and skills. The AI listens, interprets, and structures the information into a ready-to-use resume, in any languages. PitchMeAI claims the underlying system is designed to be intuitive, accurate, and bypass the need for users to worry about keywords, formatting rules, or action verbs. It's positioned as a lifeline for everyone from recent graduates baffled by corporate jargon to seasoned professionals seeking a faster way to tailor applications.
Available now on the PitchMeAI website, the tool aims to democratize access to professional application materials. 'Your voice, your experience – that's all you need to get started,' the company states.
But the Voice-to-Resume feature isn't a standalone gimmick. It plugs into PitchMeAI's existing suite of tools, accessed via a Chrome extension, designed to combat job search fatigue and improve odds:
1. One-Click Tailored Resumes: Instead of manually tweaking resumes for every single job description (a task experts recommend but few have time for), the tool analyzes a job post and generates a customized CV emphasizing relevant skills and experience with a single click. This directly targets the ATS challenge.
2. Direct Recruiter Outreach: This feature plays detective, attempting to identify the hiring manager or recruiter behind a job posting. It then helps users draft and send a concise, personalized email, aiming to bypass the anonymous online application portal. 'Got a call back from HR thanks to the email I sent with PitchMeAI. I doubt they even looked at my resume,' claims Diana, a Product Manager based in SF. 'Wonderful instrument!'
3. AI-Powered LinkedIn Networking: Recognizing that upwards of 70% of jobs are potentially filled through networking, this tool assists users in finding relevant contacts on LinkedIn, identifying their email addresses, and even drafting connection messages – tackling the awkwardness many feel about professional outreach.
Combined, these tools represent a significant intervention in the often grueling job hunt. 'This isn't just about building a resume; it's about building confidence and creating genuine opportunities,' Cooper adds. Users seem to agree. 'No less than a miraculous instrument! Super simple to use; you notice the outcomes in just an hour,' remarked Jack, a software engineer from New York.
While free templates are also available, the core offering positions PitchMeAI less as a simple document builder and more as a strategic job-seeking companion. As the AI recruitment market continues its skyrocketing growth (projected to be worth billions globally by 2027), tools like PitchMeAI are betting that smart automation can give individuals a much-needed edge.
The company emphasizes its mission to make job searching 'quicker, more intelligent, and less intimidating.' With features designed to tackle everything from writer's block to networking anxiety, PitchMeAI is making a bold claim: they're not just helping apply for jobs, they're actively trying to help get them.

Power, range, charging … what's wrong with this EV from Toyota?
PLANO, TEXAS—The tarmac is sun-baked and the air is heavy with humidity. While the road surface isn't bad, there are some pretty aggressive expansion joints that do make themselves felt. But not as much as I would expect. That's because I'm driving the all-new Toyota bZ (formerly bZ4X) electric crossover and, boy, has Toyota ever done wonders with the ride in this version of the vehicle. As good as the ride is — even though my tester has the optional 20-inch wheels, and that kind of thing tends to affect ride negatively — it's a very small part of a much bigger picture here. A lot of massaging has been done for this mid-cycle refresh of Toyota's one-and-only full battery-electric vehicle — it is a lineup that will soon triple in size after the recent announcement of the new C-HR and bZ Woodland — to address the most pressing needs of the old model, which swirled mainly around EV range and power. There needs to be an asterisk here, because, in some ways they have addressed this, but, in others, they haven't. Just as it was previously, the bZ is available with single-motor front-wheel-drive (FWD) and dual-motor all-wheel-drive (AWD). For '26, the AWD version makes 460 kilometres of range and 338 horsepower, 25- and 50-per-cent boosts, respectively, on the previous model. That's good, but the FWD model has a smaller battery than before and less range, as a result. Toyota maintains this is a cost-saving measure (pricing hasn't yet been announced), but it's, well, a bit of a bummer. AWD models of a car do tend to outsell FWD models in Canada so the lion's share of buyers will likely be happy with this. The story of its styling is a 'Tale of Two Cities'; the front end is a vast departure from the previous model, and not much has changed in the back. The vehicle gets Toyota's new 'Hammerhead' styling, which adds cool c-shaped daytime running lights and a smooth lower fascia with seamlessly-integrated body colour bumpers. Also new for '26: you can have body-coloured fenders depending on the exterior colour choice. For '26 some colours still do get contrast-colour fenders but the ones that don't look very classy and upmarket. At the rear sit the same tail light lenses and twin roof-mounted wings, with changes for '26 amounting to little more than some new badging. Inside, the main additions include a standard 14-inch central infotainment display, as well as optional nine-speaker JBL audio, while dual wireless charge pads are standard on all bZ trims (XLE FWD, XLE AWD, Limited AWD). As was the case before, the speedometer sits atop the dash, in the driver's line of sight, without obstructing the view. It essentially takes the place of a heads-up display, and it works. I spent the duration of my test in the dual-motor AWD version and that 338 horsepower can really be felt as soon as you dip in to the throttle. At 2,065 kilograms in Limited AWD spec, the bZ is no lightweight, but the power on offer and the throttle response make up for that and they have you squirting through intersections with ease. There's no problem getting up to speed on the highway. It's properly quick, this EV CUV, and inspires driver confidence as a result. The ride is very good, even if you specify the 20-inch wheels, but the chassis and suspension tuning is only half the battle when it comes to comfort of occupants. The seats are well padded and supportive, both front and back, and, while there is a nice, deep storage bin underneath the front seat armrest and a deployable armrest in back, hips and stray limbs don't get overly squeezed. The optional full-length glass roof doesn't impinge too much on front- and rear-seat headroom, which is a bonus. The added power and range are advantages. As is the charging. For '26, all bZ models come standard with NACS charging, which means you can plug in to a Tesla Supercharger and charge from 10 per cent to 80 per cent in about 30 minutes. If you prefer to use more traditional charge ports, such as a DC fast charge, each bZ sold comes with an adapter that will allow you to plug in to those, as well as a level II home charger if you happen to have one. Yes, the FWD model makes less range than before, but the power and range on offer from the AWD version hits the nail on the head. In AWD guise, it's exactly what the doctor ordered for the bZ. Type: Five-door, mid-size crossover; all-wheel-drive Engine: Front and rear EV motors; 338 horsepower Range: 460 kilometres Transmission: Single-speed automatic Cargo: 730 litres or 26 cubic feet behind second row Price: Not yet announced

Perplexity AI Reports Explosive Growth as Users Look for Browser Alternatives
Perplexity's AI-powered search engine is growing quickly, with CEO Aravind Srinivas reporting a 20% month-over-month increase and 780 million queries in May, according to TechCrunch. Speaking at the Bloomberg Tech Summit, Srinivas said that the platform could hit 1 billion weekly queries if growth continues. He also argued that internet users are looking for fresh alternatives to legacy browsers like Google's (GOOGL) Chrome, and that integrated search tools in a browser can drive even higher engagement. Confident Investing Starts Here: As a result, the company is preparing to launch Comet, which is a new agentic search engine that can help complete tasks for users. In addition, Srinivas noted on X that Comet will soon include features such as meeting recordings, transcription, and search, although these will not be available in the initial release. Nevertheless, Perplexity is working hard to polish the product, with a release expected in about three to five weeks. It is also worth noting that Perplexity is backed by investors such as Nvidia (NVDA) and Amazon (AMZN) founder Jeff Bezos, and is reportedly closing a funding round that would value it at $14 billion, up from $9 billion in December. Moreover, the search engine recently added a new feature that allows in-chat purchases via PayPal (PYPL) or Venmo. Still, despite Perplexity's growth, Google still dominates the market with about 90% global market share, followed by Microsoft's (MSFT) Bing at around 4%. Which Stock Is the Better Buy? Turning to Wall Street, out of the stocks mentioned above, analysts think that NVDA stock has the most room to run. In fact, NVDA's average price target of $172.36 per share implies more than 21% upside potential. On the other hand, analysts expect the least from MSFT stock, as its average price target of $514.27 equates to a gain of 9.2%.

Google search's AI overviews are awful, but here's a browser extension that gets rid of them
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Among the countless examples of the ever-burgeoning ens***ification of the internet, Google's AI-powered search overviews rank pretty highly. Verily, I pine for the days of reliable, organic search results devoid of AI slop. But don't despair. Well, not entirely. For the editor-in-chief of our sister website, Tom's Hardware, has come up with a browser extension that gets rid of AI overviews from Google search results. Give it up for Avram Piltch and his Bye Bye, Google AI extension. To quote the man himself, Avram says Google, "decided to push AI overviews and AI mode onto search users, regardless of the damage it causes to the user experience or the harm it may inflict on publishers and the entire open web." He also points out that Google is rolling out AI Overviews to ever more territories and countries and fears that Google may eventually want to replace all organic search results with AI Overviews . His solution is the aforementioned Bye, Bye Google AI, which works in Chrome or Edge or any desktop browser that supports Chrome extensions. He's currently working on Firefox and Safari versions. "The extension allows you to hide the AI Overview section from all of your queries and goes a step further, allowing you to hide other areas of the Google SERP that you may not want, such as the videos section, text ads, or 'People Also Ask,'" Avram says. The latest 1.5 version now supports 19 languages: English, French, German, Spanish, Korean, Japanese, Mandarin (Trad + Simplified), Arabic, Hebrew, Urdu, Hindi, Thai, Greek, Italian, Polish, Russian, Dutch, Danish and Portuguese. You can also now hide the AI Mode tab, not just AI Overviews. Avram also explains the other ways to kill the AI Overview, such as adding "-noai" to your search string. But if you want to permanently kill AI Overviews—or at least for as long as this extension works and Google is serving up any organic results at all—then Bye, Bye Google AI feels like a no brainer of an extension. Of course, you could just use another search engine, like DuckDuckGo. Moreover, the seemingly falling quality of Google's organic results isn't fixed by this extension. But if you just want to remove a little AI slop from your daily interneting, then this could be the tool for you.
