Carrd is a great low-cost builder for simple single-page websites. PitchPage is purpose-built for one job: turning your resume into a pitch page that gets you hired — AI reads your resume, builds role-shaped sections and a 60-second video, and shows you who opened the link. Want a blank canvas? Carrd. Want a job-ready page in minutes for a one-time $9? PitchPage.
What each is for
Carrd is a flexible, inexpensive tool for building simple one-page sites — landing pages, link-in-bio, personal cards. You design it from scratch; it isn't job-search-specific and has no resume import or AI. PitchPage is built specifically for job seekers: upload your resume, AI drafts the page, it shapes the sections to your role (results as evidence, a video introduction, testimonials), and you publish a shareable link with built-in analytics that show when an employer opens it. (On the format itself: what to send instead of a resume.)
Side by side
- Purpose: any one-page site vs. a job-search pitch page
- Resume import / AI: no vs. yes
- Role-shaped content: no (you build it) vs. yes (AI, per role)
- Video hero / intro: do-it-yourself vs. built in
- Who-viewed analytics: not built for the job search vs. built in on every published page
- Time to a job-ready page: longer (design it yourself) vs. minutes
- Pricing (checked August 2026): yearly plans at $9, $19 or $49 per year, plus a free plan for up to three sites vs. free to build, $9 one-time to publish
Who should pick which
Pick Carrd if you want full design control for a generic one-pager and enjoy building it yourself. Pick PitchPage if you want a polished, role-tailored page ready to send to employers without starting from a blank canvas — the resume you already have becomes the page, video and all. If you're weighing a website purely for the job hunt, see how to make a personal website for your job search.
FAQ
- Can't I just build my pitch page on Carrd?
- You can build a page, but you'd design it from scratch with no resume import, AI, or job-search structure. PitchPage does that work for you.
- Is Carrd cheaper?
- Carrd bills yearly: $9, $19 or $49 per year depending on tier, with a free plan covering up to three sites (checked August 2026). PitchPage is free to build and a one-time $9 to publish, with no subscription.
- Which looks more professional for jobs?
- PitchPage's styles are built for hiring contexts; a Carrd page depends on your own design skills.
- Can I see when an employer opens my page?
- With PitchPage, yes — every published page has built-in analytics that show when someone opened your link and how they engaged. A hand-built Carrd site isn't set up for that out of the box.
