About RankResume

We build ATS-first resume tools because we got tired of watching qualified candidates lose interviews to formatting bugs they couldn't see.

Why we exist

Most resumes are read first by an Applicant Tracking System, not a human. Decorative templates, two-column layouts, and headers hidden in text boxes routinely strip information before a recruiter ever sees it.

RankResume rebuilds your resume against the actual job description, scores it the same way an ATS would, and then renders a clean, parser-safe PDF. Free to start — one AI-tailored resume on the house, no credit card, no subscription trap.
