About CVEdge
CVEdge is a resume and interview toolkit for people applying for jobs. We build the things that sit between writing a resume and getting an interview: applicant tracking system analysis, AI rewriting that works from what you actually did, job-description matching, and structured interview preparation.
The problem we started from is a specific one. Most applications are rejected before a person reads them, and candidates almost never find out why. A resume can be well written and still fail because its contact details sit in a document header the parser never reads, or because it describes the same experience in different vocabulary than the posting uses. Those failures are invisible from the applicant's side and entirely fixable once you can see them.
So the product is built around showing you what the machine sees, then helping you fix it without pretending to be something you are not.
What we build
ATS analysis
We parse your resume the way an applicant tracking system does, then score it across six categories: contact details, sections, keywords, measurable results, bullet quality and formatting. You get more than a number: the specific list of what is costing you points and why.
Check your resume freeAI rewriting that will not invent
Our rewriter restructures the bullets you already wrote into result-led ones. Where a metric is missing it inserts an [X] placeholder for you to fill rather than fabricating a figure, because a number you cannot defend is worse in an interview than no number at all.
Try the rewriterJob matching
Paste a job description and we identify which keywords are missing, which are already covered, and which would move your match score most, so tailoring is driven by evidence rather than guesswork.
Browse jobsInterview preparation
We turn your experience into STAR-structured answers and match them to the role you are interviewing for, so you walk in with prepared stories rather than improvising under pressure.
Interview guidesTemplates that actually parse
Every template is built to survive parsing: single-column flows, standard headings, contact details in the body rather than a document header, and real text rather than images. A beautiful resume that a parser cannot read has failed at the only job that matters first.

A few positions we have taken that shape what the product does and does not do.
We do not fabricate your experience
Plenty of tools will generate achievements from a job title. Those achievements are fiction. They also make the worst possible interview topic, because interviewers probe numbers to check them. Everything our AI produces is a restructuring of something you told us.
A score is a floor, not a target
An ATS score measures whether your resume is machine-readable and relevant to a role. It cannot measure whether your experience is compelling. A 95% score on vague, unmeasured bullets still loses to a 78% resume that clearly shows someone shipped valuable work. We say so in the product, even though a higher number would be easier to sell.
Free should be useful
You can check your ATS score, see the full category breakdown and the specific issues found with a free account and no card. The free plan includes real usage of the AI features every week. We would rather you find the tool useful and upgrade than hit a wall on the first click.
Your resume is yours
We process your resume to produce the analysis, and store it only so you can come back and edit it. You can delete it at any time. We do not sell your data. The full detail is in our privacy policy.
Who writes this
Bodumalla Sivarami Reddy
Product designer, founder of CVEdge
Bodumalla Sivarami Reddy is a product designer and the founder of CVEdge. He built the ATS parser, scoring model and resume tooling behind this site, which meant reading how applicant tracking systems actually ingest a CV rather than repeating what the internet says they do. He writes here about what that work has shown about resume screening.
Everything published on this site carries that byline. Where an article states a figure from outside research it says where the figure comes from, and where the honest answer is “nobody actually knows, and the widely quoted number is vendor marketing” it says that instead of repeating it.
What we publish
Alongside the product we write guides on how applicant tracking systems actually work, what recruiters do in the first pass over a resume, and what a strong resume looks like for specific roles. It is written to be useful even if you never use the tool, including the parts where the honest answer is that a tool will not help you.
