Shrinking.

Over two years, visits went from 18M in November 2024 to a high of 35M in January 2026, and stand at 23M in October 2026. Much of the year’s change is one site, Grammarly, which is why I also look at the market without it.

Miles explains

I only call a market growing when visits and name searches agree. Here visits are down and name searches are down, so they agree.

“ai cover letter generator” is searched about 6,600 times a month worldwide, 44% of it in the US.

Google Trends barely registered “ai cover letter generator” until November 2022; interest then climbed to its peak in May 2024. Americans make 44% of the searches but only 23.2% of the visits, because the big sites also draw heavily from India, United Kingdom and Canada.

Miles explains

Google Trends shows direction, not volume. Interest is lower than a year ago, and I only trust that when the visits move the same way.

Fewer visits than a year ago, fewer people searching by name, and the next six months look like a slide.

The losers, led by BeamJobs, lost most of their search visits (-91%).

Miles explains

Huge percentages like Kickresume’s +23% usually mean one site won a big Google ranking from a small start. I watch whether it holds the next month.

I expect November 2026 to be about the same as October 2026, and the next six months to look down.

The forecast carries the level of recent months forward, not the trend line, because that version missed least when tested on past months. November is usually a quieter month than average for searches, but the calendar did not improve the forecast, so it is left out.

Expected in November 2026

Read the range, not the single number: tested on the last 6 months, my method landed inside its range 4 times.

The most visited is Grammarly, with 22 million visits a month, 96% of all visits.

Grammarly and Resume Worded together hold 98% of all visits. Below the top five the market is long and thin: the other 3 sites share 0.1%.

Miles explains

Grammarly alone has 96% of all visits. That’s a big lead, but one Google update can close it fast.
