How everything works.

Getting started

Sign up for a free account — 7 days of full access, no card required. Install the Chrome extension if you want your Upwork profile to sync automatically; the dashboard works without it too.

Once you’re in, the Live Feed is your home view: a real-time stream of Upwork jobs you can filter and score from day one.

Filters & saved searches

Build a search under Filters: include and exclude keywords, budget type (hourly or fixed) with min/max, experience level, and client location include/exclude.

Save any combination as a named search. Saved searches drive the Live Feed, can be turned into an alert with one click, and are what auto-bidding rules run against.

Alerts & integrations

Under Alerts, create a rule: choose a channel (Telegram, Slack, email, or a webhook URL — Google Sheets is coming soon), a destination, which saved search it watches (or "any job"), and a cadence — instant or a digest.

Delivery runs through a background worker that validates each destination before sending, so a bad webhook or chat ID surfaces immediately instead of silently failing.

AI proposals

From a job in your feed, generate a draft cover letter. It pulls from the job post, your saved profile, and your own prompt — choose the AI model per generation.

Save reusable prompt templates so future drafts start from your own voice rather than a blank instruction each time. Every draft is yours to edit before it goes anywhere.

Auto-bidding

Auto-bidding queues proposals for jobs that pass your saved filters and a score threshold you set — free on every plan, review and send them yourself. Add Autopilot to have fully-matched jobs submit automatically, 24/7. It never asks for or stores your Upwork password.

Set daily caps so it can’t run away with your connects, and review the queue at any time — automation follows the same rules you’d use bidding manually.

Analytics

Analytics tracks how your own proposals move from sent to replied, broken out per saved search, so you can see which filters and prompts are actually converting.

The dashboard starts empty and fills in as you bid — there’s no borrowed benchmark standing in for your real numbers.

Credits & billing

Paid plans include a monthly pool of AI credits used for filtering, scoring and proposal generation. Running low? Top up any time — top-up credits never expire and don’t require a subscription.

Upgrade, downgrade or cancel from Settings whenever you like. Your account drops to the Free plan if you ever cancel, rather than losing access outright.

Teams

From Settings, create a team or join one with an invite code. Invited members share the account’s saved searches and filters; each member’s own analytics track their own activity.

Account & security

Universal Work Search AI never asks for your Upwork password — every feature, including auto-bidding, works as a workflow layer around your account rather than logging into it directly.

The Chrome extension only assists on pages you’re already signed into; it doesn’t hold or transmit your Upwork credentials.
