You only pay on a proceed verdict.
Penned does not bill for don't-apply runs. The devil's-advocate stage decides whether your run is worth submitting. If it isn't, you get the analysis, the improvement plan, and your money back.

Questions worth answering.
Why charge on proceed only?
Most resume tools bill regardless of fit. We think a don't-apply verdict is the more useful outcome — and we should not get paid for telling you something you could have figured out from the JD.
What happens to my files?
Resumes and JDs live for thirty days, then the nightly retention sweep purges them from Supabase Storage. The policy is at /docs/privacy.
