ATS Resume Checker
Check pasted resume text against a job description and download a local ATS keyword and readability report PDF.
Paste resume text and a job description, then generate a one-page report with keyword matches, missing honest terms, section checks, readability notes, and next edits.
ATS checker searches are high-intent because job seekers often need quick feedback before applying, while many alternatives require uploads, accounts, or paid exports.
