Considering MakeMyCV? Compare Guul Before You Choose
Compare a renewing access plan with a purchase for one resume. The annual offer is a full-year charge even when its marketing presents a monthly equivalent. Keep paid add-ons separate when comparing the total; an optional headshot purchase is not the same product as document access.
Overview
The right resume builder depends on the document you need, the tools you use and the commitment you want to make. This comparison is published by Guul. It separates published policy from product preference and links the sources so you can check the offer before spending time or money.
What MakeMyCV offers
MakeMyCV’s US pricing page lists USD 2.90 for seven days, followed by USD 27.95 every four weeks. It also lists annual access billed at USD 94.80 each year. The published offer includes PDF and Word downloads, resume and cover-letter editing and resume feedback.
What Guul offers
Import and edit free. PDF, Word and plain-text downloads require One Resume or a qualifying plan. One Resume costs $4.99 USD one time and gives unlimited PDF, Word and plain-text downloads of that one resume for 30 days from purchase. It does not renew. Guul also offers recurring plans. Check the local price and scope before purchasing.
When MakeMyCV may fit better
MakeMyCV may suit someone who wants its writing, cover-letter and feedback tools together and expects to use them repeatedly. It already offers Word exports, so Word export alone does not set Guul apart.
How to keep and move your draft
Download both PDF and Word if your current access includes them. Keep the editable file and continue in Word if that meets your needs. To change builders, import your PDF or paste your own text into Guul, then verify dates, role boundaries and page count before buying another export.
Paste your own resume text into Guul. Review the imported document before buying downloads.
Before you buy or cancel
Read the selected plan, currency, first renewal date and any added products in checkout. The headshot offer has its own terms; do not assume an add-on refund promise applies to every resume subscription. Contact MakeMyCV directly about its billing.

Before you decide
- Read the selected plan, currency, first renewal date and any added products in checkout. The headshot offer has its own terms; do not assume an add-on refund promise applies to every resume subscription. Contact MakeMyCV directly about its billing.
- List the document formats you need before comparing plans. An editable Word file, a finished PDF and a builder’s internal project data are different outputs.
- Save the exact resume you submit and the job description it targets. Keep a separate editable copy so your next application does not depend on continued access to one account.
- Try the editing controls with your own material, inspect a permitted export and check the full checkout commitment. Do not buy a second product just to resolve a billing question with the first.

Comparing from India
A foreign-currency price in this comparison is not a verified Indian checkout offer. Compare the currency, taxes, export entitlement, access period and renewal terms shown to you before paying. For campus applications, also check whether your college requires its own format before choosing a design.
