GreenLight
Free with every plan, including the trial

GreenLight Assist finishes the applications machines aren't allowed to.

Some job sites ask for a human verification step, usually a CAPTCHA. GreenLight never solves those, and never will. Instead it does all the rest, then hands the application to you in your own browser with every field already filled in. You answer the check, click submit, and it lands on your receipts page automatically.

It takes about ten seconds per application, and it turns the one thing automation legitimately cannot do into the one thing you actually do.

Free from the Chrome Web Store. Works in Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc, and any Chromium browser. No separate account, nothing to configure.

Your queue, in your toolbar

The GreenLight icon shows how many applications are waiting for you. Click one and the job page opens, already filled in.

Everything already answered

Your name, contact details, work-authorization answers, the cover letter written in your voice, and your resume attached. All from facts you confirmed.

Your click, your receipt

You answer the verification and hit submit. The extension notices the confirmation page and files the receipt in GreenLight for you.

Setup, about thirty seconds

Installing it

GreenLight Assist is on the Chrome Web Store, so it installs in one click and updates itself. Google reviewed it before it was published.

  1. 1

    Add it from the Chrome Web Store

    Open the GreenLight Assist listing and click Add to Chrome, then confirm. Chrome will tell you it can read data on the five job-board sites listed there, which is exactly where it fills applications and nowhere else.

  2. 2

    Pin it, and sign in

    Click the puzzle-piece icon to the right of the address bar and pin GreenLight so the icon stays visible. Then sign in to GreenLight in the same browser. That is the whole setup, the extension uses the session you already have.

Rather install it yourself?

The same build is available as a folder you load by hand, so you can read every line before you run it. Download the unpacked version, unzip it somewhere permanent, type chrome://extensions in the address bar, turn on Developer mode, then click Load unpacked and select the folder. It will not auto-update, so you would come back here for new versions.

Using it

What your morning looks like

  1. 1

    Check the number on the icon

    The badge on the GreenLight icon is how many applications are filled and waiting. No badge means nothing needs you, which is the normal state.

  2. 2

    Click one

    The popup lists each role, the company, and the exact step that is left. Click any one and its application page opens in a new tab.

  3. 3

    Watch it fill

    A green panel appears in the corner while every field is filled in. When it finishes it tells you what is left, which is almost always “solve the CAPTCHA and hit submit”.

  4. 4

    Review, then submit

    Read it over, the same as you would any application going out under your name. Answer the verification step, click the site's own submit button, and you are done. GreenLight sees the confirmation page and records the receipt on its own.

Hard lines

What it will never do in your browser

Never solves the CAPTCHA

There is no code in GreenLight that answers a human-verification challenge, on the server or in your browser. That step is yours, by design, and it is the reason this extension exists at all.

Never clicks submit

The extension fills fields and then stops. Nothing is ever sent under your name without you pressing the site's own submit button yourself.

Never touches passwords

Password fields are skipped outright, and anything you have already typed is left exactly as you typed it. It only fills what is empty.

Never watches your browsing

It runs only on job-application pages you opened from your GreenLight queue, and only on the specific job sites GreenLight supports. Every other tab, it does nothing at all.

Questions

Does it cost anything?

No. GreenLight Assist is included with every plan, including the trial, and there is no separate charge or upgrade attached to it. Applications you finish this way are a bonus on top of the count your plan promises, they are never counted against it.

Why not just solve the CAPTCHA for me?

Because a CAPTCHA is a job site asking whether a person is really there, and answering it on your behalf would mean lying to an employer on the first interaction you have with them. It also risks your accounts on those sites. GreenLight does every part of the application that is honest to automate, and hands you the part that is not.

Do I have to use it?

No. Everything GreenLight can submit on its own still goes out overnight whether or not you install this. The extension is how you also collect the applications that hit a verification step, which on some job sites is most of them.

Why isn't it in the Chrome Web Store?

It is on its way there. Store review takes weeks and this is useful today, so it installs directly in the meantime. The tradeoff is in your favor: you can open every file in the folder and read exactly what it does before you run it.

What does it actually see?

On a job application you opened from your queue, it sees that page so it can fill it in. It requests access only to the specific job sites GreenLight supports plus greenlightapply.com, so it cannot read any other site you visit, and it sends nothing anywhere except the completion notice back to your own GreenLight account.

Something isn't working.

Two things fix almost everything: make sure you are signed in to greenlightapply.com in the same browser, and make sure the folder you loaded is still where it was when you loaded it. If it still misbehaves, email us and tell us which job site it happened on.

Two minutes now, seconds a day after.

Install it once and every application GreenLight can't finish alone becomes one you can, in about ten seconds each.
