Frequently asked questions
Is it really free? ▾
Yes. The basic checker is and will remain free — funded by unobtrusive ads. We may add an optional paid tier later for power users (unlimited checks, history, deeper analysis), but the core check stays free.
Do I need to sign up? ▾
No. Paste your resume, click Check, get your report. That's it. No email, no account, no credit card.
Is my resume stored or uploaded? ▾
Your resume text is sent to our server only for the duration of the analysis (a few seconds), processed by our AI model, and the result is returned to your browser. We do not store, log, or share your resume content. See Privacy for details.
What's an ATS score and how do you calculate it? ▾
ATS (Applicant Tracking System) is the software that screens resumes before a human sees them. Our score weighs: ATS readability (20%), keyword match to job description (25%), quantification (20%), action-verb strength (15%), readability (10%), and section completeness (10%). Open weights — see the homepage.
How is this different from ChatGPT? ▾
ChatGPT will give a vague review. We use a tuned prompt with explicit ATS scoring rules, structured output (score + specific issues + concrete rewrites), and optional job-description matching. Plus, you don't need to subscribe to anything.
Is there a daily limit? ▾
Yes — 5 checks per day per IP. This prevents abuse and keeps the service free. Drop us a line if you need more.
Does it work with PDF files? ▾
Right now: paste text only. PDF upload is coming soon (client-side parsing, so your file never leaves your browser).
