Stop getting rejected by automated screening systems. Our intelligent ATS analyzer identifies keyword gaps, optimizes your resume, and generates job-specific cover letters that get results.

Most resumes never reach a recruiter. ATS systems filter them out based on formatting, keywords, and structure.

An ATS is software used by companies to manage job applications. It automatically scans, filters, and ranks resumes based on keywords, experience, and formatting before a human recruiter ever sees them. Over 98% of Fortune 500 companies use ATS systems.
We extract keywords from the job description (skills, tools, qualifications) and compare them against your resume. We analyze keyword density, experience relevance, action verbs usage, and overall formatting to calculate your ATS compatibility score.
Absolutely! You can analyze unlimited resume versions against the same job description. This helps you find the best formatting and wording that maximizes your ATS score for each specific role.
Our algorithm is based on analysis of how major ATS platforms (Greenhouse, Workday, Lever, Taleo, etc.) parse resumes. While each ATS has unique characteristics, our keyword matching and scoring closely simulates real-world ATS behavior.
Yes! We don't store your resume or personal data on our servers. Analysis happens in real-time and your content is never saved. Your privacy is our priority.
