ATSChecker

Description

ATSChecker.ai analyzes how applicant tracking systems parse your resume so you can fix what the software sees before you apply. You upload a resume and paste a job posting, and within about a minute you receive an ATS compatibility score calculated against that exact job based on keyword overlap, skills alignment, and formatting signals.

The tool is built specifically for the software that decides whether a recruiter ever sees your application, rather than optimizing only for human readability. Its output is actionable: missing keywords, formatting flags, and rewrite suggestions you can apply quickly instead of vague career coaching.

Privacy is a core focus. Resume file parsing for PDF and DOCX happens entirely in your browser, and the original file never leaves your device until you submit; only the extracted text is sent to generate the report. The first scan requires no account, and the site also publishes guides on ATS formats, keywords, tailoring, and platform-specific optimization for systems like Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, Taleo, iCIMS, and SAP SuccessFactors. A free tier includes two scans, with a Pro plan at $9.99/mo for unlimited access and full reports.

• Is my resume file stored?

  No. Parsing happens client-side in your browser, and only the extracted text is stored for your report, never the original file.

• Do I need an account to try it?

  No account is required for your first scan, and the free tier includes two scans.

• How long does a scan take?

  Results are returned in about 60 seconds, with an average scan time of roughly 60 seconds.

• How is the score calculated?

  Your resume text is compared against the job description across keyword overlap, skills alignment, formatting signals, and structural alignment.

• What does the Pro plan include?

  Pro is $9.99/mo and adds unlimited scans, keyword gaps, formatting analysis, bullet rewrites, and full reports.
