FAQ
What is an ATS resume checker?
An ATS resume checker analyses your resume the way applicant tracking software might: whether the text can be extracted, whether sections are detected, and how well your content matches a job. Resumaxing gives you a score and a prioritised fix list in about 30 seconds.
Is Resumaxing really free?
Yes. The scan and your score are free with no signup. A short email unlocks the complete fix checklist. Paid rewrite tools are on the way and will always be optional.
Is my resume uploaded to a server?
No. The analysis runs entirely in your browser. Your resume text is not sent to our servers. (PDF reading uses a library loaded from a public CDN, which does not receive your file.)
