Draftly - Personalized Gmail drafts for direct job outreach

Applying on job boards felt like shouting into the void. What worked for me was a warm, direct email to the company — but writing dozens of unique messages burned me out. Draftly generates personalized Gmail drafts from your profile and each target company. Search businesses by city to discover local companies that rarely show up on LinkedIn. Review every draft in Gmail, attach your CV, and send when you're ready. No bulk auto-send — you stay in control. One credit per draft.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I built Draftly as startup #1 of my "12 startups in 12 months" challenge (inspired by Pieter Levels). The goal: ship fast, get real feedback, and move on if there's no fit. The problem: I kept landing more interviews from friendly, direct emails to companies than from LinkedIn applications. The bottleneck wasn't the idea — it was the mental load of writing every message from scratch. What's different: → Drafts land in Gmail (you review & send — no auto-send bot) → City-based company search for smaller/local businesses with low visibility online → Personalized copy from your bio + each company, not generic templates Free credits to try. I'd love to know: 1. Would you use direct email outreach in your job search? 2. What's missing for this to be useful for you?
