Set Default AI Instructions So You Stop Repeating Yourself
"I type the same tailoring instruction every single time."
I heard this from at least five people in the last month. If your clients expect a certain writing style, or your agency has a house tone, repeating yourself on every vacancy is a waste of time.
So we built a settings page where you write your instructions once.
AI instruction defaults
Open Settings from the header. The first tab is Profile, and it has two fields.
Default matching instruction. This tells the AI how to evaluate candidates against vacancies. If your agency focuses on tech, you might write "Prioritize candidates with hands-on engineering experience over management-only profiles." Every time the AI scores a candidate, it uses this as a baseline.
Default tailoring instruction. This controls how the AI rewrites CVs. You pick a style (professional, concise, detailed), a tone (formal, neutral, friendly), and can add a free-text prompt. Something like "Always lead with measurable achievements" or "Keep descriptions under two lines."
The precedence is simple: vacancy-level instructions override user-level defaults. If you set nothing on a vacancy, the default kicks in. You'll see a visual guide in the settings page showing which level is active.
Manage your subscription without leaving the app
Before this update, subscription info lived in a popup and invoices were buried in Stripe's portal. Upgrading or downgrading meant navigating away from Tlntly.
Now it's all under one roof.
Subscription. See your current plan, when it renews, and what other plans offer. Upgrade or downgrade directly from the page. If you downgrade mid-cycle, the change is prorated and scheduled for the end of your billing period — no surprise charges. You can cancel, reactivate, or undo a scheduled downgrade from the same screen.
Billing & invoices. Every past invoice listed with dates, amounts, and status. Download any invoice as a PDF for your bookkeeping. Open the Stripe portal from here if you need to update your payment method or billing address.
Usage. Four metrics with progress bars: AI credits consumed, candidates stored, vacancies created, and PDF exports used. If your plan resets monthly, you'll see the next reset date.
Account. Your name and email. Read-only for now.
What else changed
We fixed a few things in the PDF output. Text that overlapped at page boundaries now breaks cleanly. Nested bullet points render correctly instead of collapsing into a single level. Spacing between sections is more consistent.
The scoring AI also got more precise. It now factors in work type when evaluating location fit. A candidate open to remote work won't get penalized for living far from the office. And it handles adjacent technologies better. If a vacancy asks for React and a candidate has Vue experience, the AI recognizes them as related instead of scoring it as a miss.
Settings is live for all users.
