Free Resume / ATS Scorer

100% private — your resume is scored inside your browser and is never uploaded to us.

Paste your resume and the job description. We score it 0–100 against the same signals recruiters and applicant-tracking systems look for, show you every keyword from the posting you're missing, and tell you exactly what to fix first.

Optional, but it's worth 30 of the 100 points. Matching the posting's own language is the single biggest factor in whether an ATS ranks you.
100% private — everything is analyzed right here in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.

Frequently asked questions

How scoring works, what stays on your device, and how to raise your number.

Is my resume uploaded when I score it?

No. The scoring code runs entirely inside your browser, so your resume text never leaves your device - there is no server call carrying it. You can verify this yourself by opening your browser's network tab while you score.

The one exception is optional: if you ask us to email you your results, we send ourselves your email address and the result summary - your score, target role and the short labels of the issues we found - never the resume text itself.

How is the score calculated?

Your resume is scored out of 100 across six categories: keyword match to the posting (30 points), quantified impact (20), ATS structure (20), writing quality (15), length and brevity (10), and polish (5). Each category shows what it found and exactly what to fix, so the score reads as a to-do list rather than a verdict.

Do I need a job description to use it?

No - without one we measure the 70 points that can be judged on their own and scale the result to 100. But keyword match is worth 30 points and is the biggest single factor in whether an ATS ranks you, so pasting the posting gives you a truer score plus a list of the exact terms you are missing.

What is an ATS and why does it matter?

An ATS - applicant tracking system - is the software most employers use to parse and rank resumes before a human reads them. It rewards standard section headings, a clean single-column layout, and the same keywords the job posting uses, which is exactly what this scorer checks.

Is it free? Can I score more than one version?

Yes - free, unlimited, no account. Scoring different versions is the best way to use it: make one change, rescore, and keep what moves the number.

What if I want a professional to rewrite it?

That is our paid side: the services linked on this page cover a professional overnight resume rewrite, a fuller job application pack, and LinkedIn profile help, all from the same team that built this scorer.
