Apr 19, 2026
v1.1
ATS Intelligence, Email Templates & Security
AI detection scoring, email generators, tier enforcement, production hardening
New Improve Security Fix
🤖
AI Writing Detection Risk Score
Every resume analysis now includes an AI Detection Risk score (0-100) that flags the exact phrases and structural patterns employer AI detectors catch: overused terms like "leverage," "synergy," and "spearhead," structural uniformity, vague superlatives, and missing specificity. 46% of recruiters now use AI detectors. You'll see what to rewrite before you apply.
📊
ATS Engine v2.1 — Updated Research & Signals
Scoring engine updated with 2024-2025 research citations. Now calibrated against 40+ ATS platforms including Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, and iCIMS. Quarterly update cadence established with version tracking. The ATS Engine Intel section on the homepage now shows the current version and last-updated date.
📈
Before / After Score Visualization
The score banner now shows a dual progress bar comparing your current ATS score against your projected score after optimization, with a "+N points potential" label. Makes the improvement opportunity immediately clear.
✉️
Email Templates — Three Generators in PREPT Match
New Emails tab in PREPT AI Match with three generators: post-application follow-up (with configurable days-since-applied and contact name), post-interview thank-you (personalized from the interview context), and salary negotiation email (anchors high, justifies with market data). Pro feature; negotiation email is Career+.
Streaming Cover Letter Generation
Cover letter now generates in real time using server-sent events. Characters stream directly to the screen as they are written rather than waiting for the full response. Noticeably faster feel on longer letters.
🔒
Tier Entitlement Enforcement
Pro and Career+ features are now gated on both the frontend and the API. Previously, cover letter, LinkedIn optimizer, mock interviews, salary coaching, video prep, Duo Mode, and all email generators were accessible to free users with no restriction. Every feature now enforces the correct plan on both the UI and the server independently, so bypassing the interface does not bypass the gate.
🛡
Production Hardening
Stream error handling fixed to surface real errors instead of swallowing them silently. Free utility mode rate limits now persist in Supabase across serverless restarts instead of in-memory only. Content-Security-Policy and Permissions-Policy headers added. localStorage QuotaExceededError handled gracefully in resume versioning. CORS standardized to www.preptai.co across all API endpoints.
🧩
Chrome Extension v2.1 — Easy Apply Helper
New Easy Apply Helper in the Quick Tools tab. Store your name, email, phone, city, and LinkedIn URL once. Each field has a copy button so you can paste into LinkedIn Easy Apply and other job application forms in one click. Contact info saved locally in the extension — never sent to any server.
