A Simplify Copilot alternative with AI answers on the free plan
Simplify Copilot is the best-known job application autofill extension, and its autofill is free. If you want AI-written answers without a subscription, your own AI key, or a filler that works before you make an account, here is how lazee.dev compares.

| What | lazee.dev | Simplify Copilot |
|---|---|---|
| Autofill | Free and unlimited on every plan. | Free, with no limit on autofilled applications. |
| AI answers to open questions | On the Free plan: 2 credits per answer from 200 free credits a month, or 0 credits with your own AI key. | New AI answers are part of Simplify+. Free users can reuse a saved answer when the same question comes up again. |
| Paid plan | Pro is $14.99 a month or $139.99 a year. It adds Express Fill, Cold DMs, an AI rescore and 10,000 credits a month. | Simplify+: $19.99 for one week, $39.99 for one month or $89.99 for three months on its website. |
| Your own AI key or a local model | Yes, on every plan: your own key from a major AI provider, or a local model on your computer. AI features then cost 0 credits. | Not mentioned on its pages. |
| Account | Not needed to start: drop your resume PDF into the extension and it fills from it. A free account adds a synced profile. | You sign in with a Simplify account after installing. |
| Submitting applications | Never submits and never presses Next. There is no auto-apply mode. | Copilot leaves the final Submit to you. Autopilot, a separate Simplify+ feature, submits chosen jobs for you. |
| Resume match and tailoring | Free 0-100 match score and a free one-page tailored resume, both built on your device. An AI rescore is part of Pro. | Keyword matching is free. AI resume tailoring is part of Simplify+. |

Why people pick lazee.dev over Simplify
These are the differences that matter if Simplify isn't quite what you need. Each one is in the table above with Simplify's side next to it.
AI answers without a subscription
Open-ended questions are answered on the Free plan: 2 credits each from 200 monthly credits. Simplify's help pages put new AI answers in Simplify+.
Your own AI key, 0 credits
Connect a key from a major AI provider, or a local model, on any plan. Your AI requests then go straight to that provider and cost no credits.
No account to start
Drop your resume PDF into the popup and it fills from it. The resume is read on your computer and stays in your browser until you choose to sign up.
A lower paid tier
Pro is $14.99 a month or $139.99 a year. Simplify's website lists Simplify+ at $39.99 for one month.
Never submits for you
lazee.dev has no auto-apply mode at all. Every application is reviewed and sent by you.
A free tailored resume per job
Under the free match score, the extension builds a one-page resume for that posting on your device. Simplify's pages put AI resume tailoring in Simplify+.
Try lazee.dev next to Simplify
- Step 1
Install and drop in your resume
Add the extension and drop your resume PDF into its popup. It reads it on your computer and is ready to fill, with no account.
- Step 2
Use one filler per page
Two autofill extensions on the same form get in each other's way. Pause Simplify on a job site while you try lazee.dev there, or the other way round.
- Step 3
Apply to one real job
Open an application, check what was filled, try an AI answer on an open question and submit it yourself. Keep whichever tool did it better.
Where Simplify is ahead
Simplify has hundreds of thousands of users and thousands of store ratings, so it has been tested on far more application forms than a new extension has. It includes a free application tracker, which lazee.dev does not have, a large job board with personal job matches, and an iPhone app.
When to stay with Simplify
If you rely on an application tracker, apply mostly from your phone, or already pay for Simplify+ and use its Autopilot, Simplify is the better fit. If the match score is what you are after, you can also try ours without installing anything: the free ATS resume checker.
Simplify Copilot alternative questions
Is Simplify Copilot free?
Its autofill is. Simplify's own pages say autofilled applications are unlimited and free, and that new AI answers, AI resume tailoring and Autopilot are part of the paid Simplify+ plan.
Is lazee.dev free?
Autofill, the match score and the tailored resume are free and unlimited. AI answers are on the Free plan too, within 200 credits a month, or without credits when you connect your own AI key. Pro is $14.99 a month or $139.99 a year.
Does lazee.dev have a job tracker like Simplify?
No. lazee.dev has no application tracker. You can bookmark jobs on its job board, but if tracking every application in one place matters to you, Simplify does that and lazee.dev doesn't.
Can I use lazee.dev and Simplify together?
You can keep both installed, but let only one of them fill a given page. Each extension can be switched off per site, so nothing stops you using Simplify for one job site and lazee.dev for another.
Where does this comparison come from?
The Simplify column is taken from its own website, help pages and store listing, read on 11 November 2026 and linked under the table. The lazee.dev column is our own product. If something has changed, tell us through the feedback page and we will correct it.
