What Enhancv is
Enhancv is a resume-builder-first product: hundreds of ATS-friendly templates, an AI content checker for grammar and clichés, and a one-click job-tailoring feature that compares your resume to a pasted job ad. Design range is its main focus, and it shows.
Enhancv's free plan is genuinely full-featured but expires after 7 days. Pro was A$39.99 a month when checked, or A$69.99 billed every 3 months, about A$23.33 a month. Both are shown to Australian visitors in AUD; whether that is the currency actually billed, versus a converted estimate, is worth confirming at checkout.
Prices checked 21 September 2026. Vendors in this category change pricing often and several bill in four week cycles, so check before you rely on a figure here.

When to choose Enhancv
Choose Enhancv if design and template range matter most to you, or if you want a built-in grammar and cliché checker while you write. It has more visual polish than CVelo and a genuinely wide template library, and its free trial gives full access for a week rather than a permanently limited free tier.
When to choose CVelo
Choose CVelo if you're applying for Australian roles, especially government, health or education jobs that ask for selection criteria, or translating ADF service into civilian language. Enhancv's ATS check sits behind its paid plan; CVelo's is free indefinitely, with no account. You also get interview practice, which Enhancv does not offer, for a flat A$19 a month.

Is Enhancv's free plan enough to use properly?+
For seven days, yes — full access to templates and design tools. After that the free plan is gone rather than reduced, so budget for a paid tier if you need more time. CVelo's free tier has no expiry: one full application a month, indefinitely.
Does Enhancv check Australian selection criteria?+
No. Enhancv is a resume builder for a general international market, with no feature for selection criteria, APS pitches or Australian government application formats.
Is Enhancv's price actually in Australian dollars?+
Enhancv showed A$39.99 a month, or A$69.99 billed quarterly, to an Australian visitor when checked on 21 September 2026. Whether that is the currency actually billed versus a converted estimate is worth confirming at checkout — CVelo charges a flat A$19 a month with no ambiguity.
