Resume Maker

Resumes that get interviews

Resume Maker builds polished, ATS-safe resumes with PDF, Word, and image preview outputs in one call. Bullets are rewritten in the strong XYZ formula — "Accomplished X by doing Y, resulting in Z" — using your actual experience. Tailor the same resume to a specific job posting, run a free ATS audit, and draft a matching cover letter.

The tool outputs files you can send immediately, not a web builder you have to log into. Every resume follows single-column, recruiter-standard typography with clean section structure that passes automated screening systems.

What you can do

  • create_resume — build a polished PDF, Word file, and image preview from structured resume data with optional bullet rewriting
  • tailor_for_job — rewrite bullets to mirror a job posting's keywords and report a before/after match score
  • import_resume — parse pasted resume text into structured fields ready for the other skills
  • critique_resume — run a deterministic ATS and writing-quality audit: parsability, quantification ratio, weak verbs, AI-tell words
  • write_cover_letter — draft a 250-400 word cover letter keyed to a job description, with optional first-90-days paragraph

Who it's for

Job seekers who want a polished, ATS-ready resume without paying for a resume service, career coaches preparing resumes for clients, and anyone who knows their experience is strong but needs help presenting it in the format that gets callbacks.

How to use it

  1. Start with import_resume — paste your existing resume text and it returns structured fields plus an initial critique.
  2. Pass the structured data to create_resume with polish: true to get bullet rewrites and a downloadable PDF and Word file.
  3. When you have a job to apply for, run tailor_for_job with the job description to see which keywords you're missing and get a tailored version.
  4. Follow up with write_cover_letter to draft a matching letter for the same role.

Getting started

Paste your current resume into import_resume to start — it does the parsing and gives you an immediate critique of what to improve.

Create resume

Take structured resume fields and render a polished PDF, Word file, and image preview in one call. Bullets are rewritten to the XYZ formula by default.

Returns: PDF, DOCX, and JPEG preview paths plus a critique score and the rewritten resume data.
Tailor to a job

Rewrite the resume bullets to mirror keywords from a target job posting, re-render all three formats, and report the keyword-match delta.

Returns: Tailored PDF, DOCX, preview image, extracted keywords, and before/after keyword match scores.
Import existing resume

Parse a pasted resume (or pre-extracted PDF/DOCX text) into structured fields that the other skills can consume.

Returns: Structured resume data plus an initial critique score.
Critique resume

Deterministic ATS + writing-quality audit. No LLM. Scores parsability, clarity, quantification, AI-tell words, weak verbs, and clichés.

Returns: ATS score, clarity score, quantification ratio, and a prioritised issue list.
Write cover letter

Draft a 250-400 word cover letter in hook-proof-ask structure, keyed to a job description and using only facts from the candidate's resume.

Returns: Cover letter as PDF, DOCX, preview image, plus body text and word count.
