Free ATS Resume Test: see exactly what a parser reads from your PDF

Upload a PDF (or DOCX) resume and see the text an ATS-style parser extracts, in the order it extracts it — entirely in your browser, nothing uploaded.

PDF or DOCX, up to 10MB. Nothing is uploaded.

How this works

This uses pdf.js to pull the real text layer out of your file, right in your browser -- the same underlying library many resume parsers use to get text out of a PDF. There's no AI involved and nothing is uploaded to a server. You won't find a numeric 'ATS score' here, because real applicant tracking systems parse differently from each other and we have no way of knowing which one any given employer uses -- what you see below is what a text-layer parser would actually get from your file, not a simulation or a guess.
