Free resume tools
Two things worth knowing before you apply: whether a machine can read your resume, and what the posting is actually screening for. Both are free, with no account and nothing held back behind an upgrade.
Is your resume even readable?
ATS resume checker
Upload your resume and see the exact text an applicant tracking system pulls out of it — plus a 0–100 score made of named checks, each with a fix. It catches the failures that live in the file itself: two-column layouts that interleave, text trapped in images, tables, a scan with no text layer at all.

What is this posting actually screening for?
Job description keyword finder
Paste any job posting and instantly see the concrete skills it screens for, split into must-have and nice-to-have by the posting's own wording. It runs entirely in your browser — the posting never leaves your device.

Free means free.
No account, no card, no drip of results behind an upgrade. These tools exist because the honest version of each one is genuinely useful, and because most of what's sold in this category is a made-up number attached to a checkout button. If you want your resume rewritten to match a specific job, that's the paid product — but you can find out everything above without paying us anything.
For the record, so you can decide before you click: tailoring is free for your first resume, export included. After that Pro is $9/month or $39 once. No “free forever” promise, because it wouldn't be true.
