Troubleshooting and FAQ
Something not working? Start here — sign-in, import, saving, PDF export, Lyra, and account issues with concrete fixes.
First step for most issues: Refresh the page, confirm you are signed in, and retry. If the problem persists, use the sections below.
Sign-in and session

My session expired mid-task
Sign in again, return to the page, and retry. Unsaved editor changes may be lost—save Studio CVs regularly.
CV import
Import is incomplete or wrong
Import produces a draft, not a guaranteed complete record.
- Open Nexus → Work experience (and Education / Professional if needed).
- Review records marked Needs review.
- Fix dates, titles, responsibilities, and skills.
- Remove duplicates; add missing sections manually.
Scanned, image-heavy, or unusual layouts reduce extraction quality. Manual entry is always available.
A record will not save
| Cause | Fix |
|---|---|
| Missing required fields | Work: title, company, start date. Education: institution, degree, field, start date. Professional: section-specific required fields |
| Upload in progress | Wait for file upload to finish |
| Expired session | Refresh and sign in again |
Dashboard and analytics
Counts or charts look wrong
Dashboard reads saved Nexus data. Verify:
- Work start/end dates and current-role flag.
- Seniority and industry on main roles.
- Skills and labels.
- Studio CV count.
Save corrections in Nexus, then reload the Dashboard.
Studio
A CV is missing new Nexus records
Studio does not auto-include new Nexus items on existing CVs.
- Open the CV editor → Content.
- Select the new work, education, skill, or professional record.
- Save the CV.
Exported PDF looks wrong
- Confirm the CV is saved in the editor.
- Review the on-screen preview.
- Retry Download PDF.
- Use print view → browser Save as PDF.
- If cramped, hide a section or use a more compact template—not unreadably small text.
Lyra
Lyra gave inaccurate or invented content
Do not save unverified suggestions. Useful correction prompts:
- "Do not invent metrics. Rewrite using only the evidence shown."
- "Ask me questions before suggesting new bullets."
- "Make this less senior; match an individual contributor role."
- "Keep my meaning; improve clarity only."
Check Lyra context and focus the relevant record or CV section.
Lyra is blocked or unavailable
Some plans gate AI features. Check Settings → Plan and your subscription status. Interview and Lyra both depend on AI access where noted in the product.
Account and data
I need a backup of my data
Settings → Security → Export data.
I want to delete one CV or role, not my account
Delete the item in Studio (CV) or Nexus (record). Account deletion is under Settings → Security → Delete account.
Report a bug
Settings → Report an issue. Include page URL, steps to reproduce, expected vs actual behaviour, and severity (use 8–10 for data loss or blocked workflows).
Next steps
- Settings — export, deletion, issue reports.
- Studio - Print / export — PDF and print fallback.
- Lyra - AI assistant — safe use and review.
