You can check as many resumes as you want, compare against multiple job descriptions, and receive detailed scoring and improvement suggestions—all at no cost. Premium features like Magic Enhance and advanced AI rewriting are available on paid plans.
What ATS score do I need to pass screening?
While thresholds vary by company and ATS platform, a score of 80% or above generally gives you a strong chance of passing automated screening. We recommend aiming for 85%+ for competitive roles. Our checker shows you exactly which improvements will have the biggest impact on your score.
How accurate is the ATS score?
Our scoring algorithm is trained on data from major ATS platforms including Taleo, Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, and iCIMS. It checks keyword matching, formatting compatibility, section structure, and content quality. While no tool can guarantee 100% accuracy across all ATS variants, our checker provides a highly reliable indicator of your resume's compatibility.
What file formats can I upload for checking?
We support PDF, DOCX (Microsoft Word), and plain text formats. For the most accurate results, upload the same format you plan to submit to employers. We also allow you to paste your resume text directly if you prefer not to upload a file.
Is my resume data kept private and secure?
Absolutely. Your resume data is encrypted during transit and processing. We never share your personal information or resume content with third parties, employers, or recruiters. You can delete your data at any time from your account settings. Our platform uses enterprise-grade security to protect your information.
