Parseability
Can applicant tracking systems extract your name, contact details, experience, skills, and dates? Tables, multi-column layouts, and text boxes break parsing — the checker flags each one.
Keyword match
Paste a job description and see which required and preferred terms appear in your resume, which are missing, and how that affects your overall ATS score.
Format compliance
Standard section headings, selectable text, parseable date ranges, and single-column fallback. The quiet failures that never show an error message but still filter you out.
Bullet strength
Action verbs, quantified impact, and role-specific phrasing. Weak bullets are surfaced so you know what to rewrite before you apply.
Free scan vs AI rewrite
This page gives you a diagnostic ATS score — strengths, weaknesses, and keyword gaps — with no signup. When you want the AI to rewrite bullets, reorder sections for a specific posting, and re-score until the result stabilizes, use the AI resume checker or tailor your resume to a job description in the app. See ATS checker vs AI optimizer for when each fits.

Frequently asked questions
What does the free ATS resume checker score?
It runs the same 12-analyzer engine as Krafiter: parseability (can an ATS read your sections and dates?), format compliance (tables, columns, text boxes), keyword coverage against an optional job description, bullet strength, and section structure. You get a numeric ATS score plus a breakdown of strengths and gaps.
Do I need to sign up or paste my email?
No. Upload a PDF or DOCX and get an instant score — nothing is stored on our servers after the scan completes. Rate limits apply to keep the free tier sustainable; sign up only if you want AI rewrites and unlimited checks.
How is this different from the AI resume checker?
This page is the instant, no-account scan — diagnose only. The AI resume checker in the app adds keyword rewrites, bullet fixes, re-scoring, and PDF or LaTeX export. Use this page to see your baseline; upgrade when you want the AI to fix what it finds.
Should I paste a job description?
Recommended. Without a JD, the checker scores general ATS parseability and structure. With a JD, keyword match and coverage are scored against that exact posting — the same signal recruiters and parsers use when filtering applications.
Is my resume data private?
The public scan sends your file to our API for analysis and does not persist it after the response. For full tailoring with saved versions, use the app at app.krafiter.com under our privacy policy.
