ATS Checker

ATS resume analysis — 100% free, private, and instant.

Why does it matter?

Most large companies use ATS — Applicant Tracking Systems — to filter resumes before a human ever sees them. Even a perfect background can be missed if your resume isn’t machine-readable.

Many resumes fail ATS parsing because of layout issues, non-standard fonts, multi-column formats, or scanned PDFs. If your document isn’t an ATS compatible resume PDF, it may never reach a real person.

How does ATS Checker work?

  • Upload your resume as a PDF (other formats are not supported).
  • Instantly get a professional analysis: structure, readability, and clear recommendations.
  • All processing happens locally in your browser — your file never leaves your device.
  • Results appear in seconds. No waiting, no uploads, no accounts.
