HOW IT WORKS
Your CV in three steps
Nothing to download. No computer skills needed.
1. Paste the job advert
Copy the advert you have seen — on a noticeboard, in a WhatsApp group, or on a website. Paste it in, and the CV is aimed at that job.
2. Fill in your details
Type them in, or answer my questions and I write each section for you. You do not need professional wording to start.
3. Download your PDF
Download a clean PDF, ready to send by email or WhatsApp. No account, nothing to pay.
ON YOUR PHONE
Built for a normal phone, and a normal bundle
Most people looking for work in Tanzania do all of it on a phone. So Sumaiya does not need a computer, and there is nothing to install.
Your PDF is made on your phone
Your file is produced inside your phone, not on a server. Once the page has opened, typing and downloading do not need another bundle.
Nothing to install
You start in the browser. No app store, no waiting for a large file before you have seen anything.
Your work stays on your phone
What you type is saved on your own device as you go, so a dropped connection does not cost you the CV.
The page itself needs a connection once, to open. After that, typing and downloading do not need another bundle.
PROOF
Don't take our word for it. Try it.
No invented numbers here. These are three things you can verify yourself in one minute.
A real CV, a real PDF
Start from the example, change it to your own details, download. What you get is a complete PDF with real selectable text — not a screenshot of a CV.
No account in the way
There is no sign-in page between you and your file. You are asked to sign in only after you already have what you came for.
In Swahili, properly
The menus, the guidance, the example CV and the FAQ are all written in Swahili first. Swahili is not a translation layer on top of an English product.
WHAT YOU CAN BUILD
The documents an application needs, in one place
The CV comes first. The cover letter goes with it. A card and formal letters come after — all in one consistent look.
CV builder
Write it once, aim it at the advert you are applying for, and download a PDF you own. Free.
Cover letters
The letter that goes with your CV, written to match the same advert.
Business cards
A card with your name, phone and email, ready to print or to send as a PDF.
Formal letters
Application, reference and resignation letters in the format employers expect.
THE LOOK
47 looks — pick one and start

Every PDF tool you need, free
Most applications need PDFs: your scanned certificates, your transcripts, and one file to send. These are the same tools you need for that — right in your browser. No sign-up, and your files are never stored.
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before you start.
Is Sumaiya really free?
Yes. You build your CV and download the PDF without paying anything. Payments are not switched on at all yet, which is why you will not see a price anywhere.
Do I need to create an account?
No. You can write your CV and download your file without one. You sign in only if you want to save your work online or pick it up on another phone.
Does it work on a normal phone and a normal bundle?
Yes. There is nothing to install, and your PDF is produced inside your phone. The page itself needs a connection once, to open; after that, typing and downloading do not need another bundle.
Can I use it in Swahili?
Yes — Swahili is Sumaiya's first language. The menus, the guidance, the example CV and this whole page exist in Swahili, with English available whenever you want it.
How does a CV look to an employer?
Single column, clear headings, real text — so a person and a screening program can both read it easily. We cannot promise that an employer will reply; no tool can promise that. What we can make sure of is that your CV is readable, has the sections employers look for, and matches the advert you applied to.
Where is Sumaiya available?
We are starting in Tanzania. From there we are expanding across East Africa and the rest of Africa. Everything is in Swahili and English today.
Can I get a Word (DOCX) file?
Yes. Alongside a clean PDF, you can download your CV as an editable Word document.
