How it works

A useful score without the usual waiting game

Deterministic checks score contact details, structure, experience, skills, education, formatting, and keywords.

03

Save and improve

Create a free account to attach the parsed resume, unlock the report, and continue in the builder.

Questions, answered

ATS checker FAQ

What is an ATS resume checker?+

An ATS resume checker reviews the text and structure of your resume for signals commonly used by applicant tracking systems, including contact details, standard sections, skills, accomplishments, formatting safety, and job keywords.

Is this really free?+

Yes. Visitors can run a limited number of basic checks each day without paying. A free account unlocks saving and history; advanced AI and tailoring features follow the limits of your plan.

Do I need to create an account?+

No account is required to see the basic score, checks, top improvements, extracted skills, and a limited keyword preview.

What file formats are supported?+

The checker accepts text-based PDF, DOCX, and TXT files up to 10MB. If a PDF is image-only or encrypted, paste the text or export it as DOCX/TXT.

Is my resume stored?+

The original file is never stored by the public checker. A short-lived text copy and report are retained for up to seven days so you can save the resume after signup, then automatically expire.

Can I compare my resume to a job description?+

Yes. Paste an optional job description before uploading to get a match score, found keywords, missing keywords, and a reminder to add only truthful skills and experience.

How accurate is the ATS score?+

The score is a transparent readiness benchmark, not a promise from any employer's ATS. It uses deterministic weighted checks so the same content produces consistent results.

Can AI rewrite my resume?+

Yes, after signup. The free basic score does not wait for AI. AI rewrites and deeper suggestions are separate, metered features.

What happens after I create an account?+

ApplyHolic converts the short-lived report into a normal parsed resume, saves its score, makes it available in your workspace, and guides you to the builder and ATS history.

How is this different from a normal resume builder?+

A builder helps you write and format a document. This checker measures ATS readability and job alignment; ApplyHolic connects both with tailoring, tracking, interview prep, and application workflows.
