CALIBER

CALIBER Assist · Browser extension for desktop

Apply through CALIBER on every other site.

CALIBER submits Greenhouse and Lever applications for you automatically. Postings on Indeed, Workday, iCIMS and employers' own career sites need you to be signed in there, so for those CALIBER Assist works inside your browser: it fills the application from your profile, saved answers and resume, shows what still needs you, and records the application in your tracker when you submit it.

Included with CALIBER Plus and Pro. Sign in to download it.

For Chrome, Edge and Brave on a computer, and Firefox as a temporary add-on for now. Safari isn't supported yet.

How it works

  1. Fill

    Open any job application page and press Fill with CALIBER. Name, contact, work history answers, authorization answers you saved, and your resume go in.

  2. Review

    Anything CALIBER would have to guess is left for you and listed. AI-drafted answers are marked so you read them first.

  3. Record

    Submit on the employer's site, press I applied, and the job shows as Applied in your CALIBER tracker with outcomes and Debrief.

Install CALIBER Assist

Install manually

Until it is in the browser stores, CALIBER Assist installs as an unpacked extension. Pick your browser and follow the numbered steps; the one you are using is already selected.

  1. Download it

    Press the button. You need to be signed in to CALIBER Plus or Pro.

    Download CALIBER Assist

  2. Find the file and unzip it

    It lands in your Downloads folder as caliber-assist.zip. On Windows, right-click it and choose Extract All…, then Extract; on a Mac, double-click it. You get a folder named caliber-assist with manifest.json inside. Keep that folder somewhere you won't delete it (for example Documents): Chrome runs Assist from it.

  3. Add it to Chrome

    Paste chrome://extensions into the address bar and press Enter. Turn on Developer mode (the switch is in the top-right corner). Click Load unpacked and choose the caliber-assist folder, the one that contains manifest.json. Pick the folder, not the zip: zip files are greyed out in that picker.

  4. Pin it to the toolbar

    Click the puzzle-piece icon next to the address bar, then the pin next to CALIBER Assist, so its icon stays on the toolbar.

  5. Connect it to CALIBER

    Open or refresh your CALIBER dashboard while signed in. Assist connects itself; click its icon and the popup shows "Connected".

  6. Check that it works

    Refresh this page: the line at the top says Installed with the version number. Then open a job from your dashboard with Apply on Site: a Fill with CALIBER button shows on the employer's page.

  7. Keep it updated

    A downloaded copy doesn't update by itself. When its icon shows a red ! or this page says an update is ready, follow Keep Assist updated below.

Your sign-in token stays in the extension's own storage; job sites never see it. Assist talks only to this CALIBER server.

Troubleshooting

Load unpacked won't let me pick the zip
That picker lists folders only. Unzip caliber-assist.zip first and choose the folder it makes.
"Manifest file is missing or unreadable"
The folder you picked is one level too high or too low. Choose the folder that has manifest.json directly inside it.
The dashboard still says CALIBER Assist Required
Browsers add an extension only to pages opened after it was installed: refresh the dashboard tab. Check that CALIBER Assist is switched on in your extensions page.
The popup says it is not connected
Open your CALIBER dashboard in the same browser while signed in; Assist picks up your sign-in from there.
Load unpacked is greyed out or missing
Developer mode is off. Switch it on in the extensions page (Edge: in the left-hand menu).
I can't find the downloaded file
Open your browser's downloads list (Ctrl+J on Windows, or the downloads arrow on a Mac) and click Show in folder.
Firefox: CALIBER Assist is gone after a restart
That is expected for a temporary add-on: open about:debugging, click This Firefox and Load Temporary Add-on… again.
Safari
CALIBER Assist doesn't work in Safari yet. Use Chrome, Edge, Brave or Firefox on a computer.

Keep Assist updated

Latest version: see the download above.

Download the latest CALIBER Assist

Assist checks for a new version on its own (when it is installed, when the browser starts and every few hours). When an update is needed, its toolbar icon shows a red ! and its popup has the button to update. Press the icon to see the installed version and Check for updates.

Why downloaded installs don't update: your browser updates only the extensions it installed from its store. A folder you loaded with Load unpacked is never checked for a newer copy. To update it:

  1. Download the new zip (the button above) and unzip it.
  2. Open chrome://extensions (Edge: edge://extensions, Brave: brave://extensions) and press Remove on the old CALIBER Assist.
  3. Press Load unpacked and pick the new caliber-assist folder, the one with manifest.json inside.
  4. Refresh your CALIBER dashboard. You confirm each job site again once.

Don't unzip over the old folder: a Mac puts the new files in a second folder, so the old version stays loaded. Installs from the Chrome Web Store, Edge Add-ons or Firefox Add-ons update by themselves.

What it never does

It does not submit for you, does not sign in to Indeed or LinkedIn for you, and never invents identity, work-authorization, security-clearance or demographic answers. Those come only from what you saved in CALIBER, or they are left for you.
