What is an ATS (Applicant Tracking System)?
ATS stands for Applicant Tracking System. It is the software many companies use to receive, sort and rank resumes before a recruiter opens them.
It reads your resume like a robot
It extracts text, section headings, dates and contact details. A complex layout or unusual headings can make it lose information.
It compares it with the job posting
Keywords, job title, degree, years of experience: the closer your resume is to the posting, the higher your score.
It helps rank candidates
Recruiters often rely on that ranking. A badly parsed resume can go unnoticed even if you are the right fit.
This free ATS resume checker reproduces these checks to help you fix your resume. It gives an estimate and does not replace the real software used by the company.

Frequently asked questions
Is my resume readable by an ATS?
Upload your resume (PDF or Word) and paste the job posting: the scanner checks that the text can be extracted, that your contact details, "Experience" and "Education" headings, dates and file type are recognized, and shows what to fix.
How do I test my resume for free?
Upload your resume, paste the job posting and run the ATS scan. You get a match score, the posting keywords missing from your resume and a list of what to fix. No account is needed.
What keywords should I put in my resume?
The ones in the job posting, as long as they are true for you: tools (Excel, SAP…), skills, the exact job title and degree. The scanner lists the posting keywords that are missing from your resume.
What mistakes block a resume in an ATS?
Text stuck in images or scanned PDFs, headings that are not standard, text in headers, footers or tables, years without months, a missing job title, and lists of keywords with no context. The scanner checks all of these.
PDF or Word for an ATS?
Both work if the PDF contains selectable text (exported from Word or Google Docs). Avoid scanned or image-only PDFs, and avoid text in headers, footers, tables or text boxes.
Can ChatGPT analyze a resume?
It can give opinions, but it does not read your resume the way an ATS does and it often flatters. This scanner checks concrete ATS points first, then adds an AI analysis with Gemini that penalizes keyword stuffing.
How can I improve my resume for free?
Run the ATS scan to spot what blocks you (headings, dates, format), add the posting keywords that are true for you, quantify your achievements, then let the Gemini AI analysis give you ready-to-copy rewrites and layout advice.
Can an AI analyze my resume for free?
Yes: the Gemini AI resume analysis is free here, with 5 analyses per person per day. It gives a detailed score, strengths and weaknesses, rewrites and layout advice.
Why is it free with no account?
The ATS scan runs in your browser, so it costs nothing to run. The AI analysis uses a free quota, which is why it is limited per person. If it helps you, you can buy me a coffee.
Is my resume stored or sent anywhere?
The ATS scan runs entirely in your browser: nothing is uploaded. The AI analysis only sends your resume text and the posting to Google Gemini if you tick the consent box. Nothing is stored on this site; your scan history stays in your own browser.
Does it work with a CV in French or other formats?
Yes. It understands French headings and degrees as well as English ones, and reads resumes and job postings in both languages. Use PDF or Word (.docx).
What ATS score should I aim for?
Aim for 70% or more: it means your resume is readable and well aligned with the posting. Below 40%, start with the "Fix these first" list.
