Frequently asked questions

Rezumate is a native iOS resume optimization app. Upload a resume, paste a job description, and get instant ATS-style scoring, missing keyword detection, bullet improvements, and a professionally formatted PDF export, all running locally on your iPhone.

Most applicants send one generic resume everywhere and never know why it underperforms. Rezumate shows an ATS-style score, missing keywords, weak bullets, and bullets that need measurable impact, then helps you improve them without uploading your data anywhere.

Tech professionals, students, active job seekers, and developers who want to tailor resumes rapidly for different roles, with complete privacy. Because everything runs locally, it is instant, responsive, and works fully offline.

Upload resume (PDF or DOCX), paste a job description, get an ATS-style score with full breakdown, see missing keywords and weak bullets, tap Improve Resume, then view and download a formatted PDF in a professional template.

Privacy and effectiveness. Standard resume tools upload your phone number, email, work history, and addresses to third-party cloud databases. Rezumate does not. It processes everything in-memory and in local sandboxed storage. And unlike template-builders that only change formatting, Rezumate actually moves the needle on your ATS score by injecting missing keywords and strengthening impact signals.

PDF and DOCX. Rezumate uses native iOS PDFKit and local ZIP/XML parsers to extract skills, experience, and keywords directly on your device.

A role-specific ATS match score broken down into keyword coverage (45%), impact quality (25%), structure and readability (20%), and formatting risk (10%). You also get a list of matched keywords, missing keywords, weak bullets, and formatting warnings, all calculated instantly by the native scoring engine.

It depends on the resume and job description. Keyword coverage can improve when missing JD keywords are added to the skills section. Impact quality can improve when task-only bullets are rewritten with clearer outcome, reliability, quality, performance, or delivery signals. Rezumate does not invent fake numbers.

Rezumate uses local scoring rules and writing patterns. It upgrades passive verbs (for example, "worked on" becomes "Engineered"), injects missing keywords into the skills section, and adds clearer outcome language to task-only bullets without inventing metrics.

No. Everything runs locally with no model download and no server connection required. Analysis, scoring, improvement, and PDF export all happen on-device.

No. Rezumate is designed to improve phrasing and inject real keywords from the job description. It does not fabricate employers, credentials, or metrics. You remain responsible for keeping your resume truthful.

Yes. After improving your resume, Rezumate formats it using a clean, professional LaTeX-style PDF template: centered name header, pipe-separated contact bar, bold section headers with a light rule, two-column tabular experience entries, and ATS-safe typography. The PDF is generated on-device and shared directly from your device.

Free includes 3 ATS analyses per day, 3 resume improvements per day, 2 saved resume variants, basic score feedback, keyword gaps, and PDF export. It is designed to be genuinely useful before you upgrade.

Yes. Rezumate Pro is a one-time lifetime unlock for unlimited analyses, unlimited improvements, unlimited saved variants, full ATS diagnosis, and full keyword insights. Rezumate is available on the App Store with a $7.99 one-time launch price. The regular price is $14.99.

Most cloud resume builders charge $15-30/month because they pay for server-side AI and storage. Rezumate runs locally on your iPhone, so Pro is sold as a one-time purchase instead of a subscription or confusing credit pack.

Private by design. Your resume text, job descriptions, scores, and improved variants are stored only on your device using local sandboxed storage. Rezumate has no resume-analysis database and no analytics trackers. We have zero visibility into your career details.

No. You can use Rezumate immediately without creating an account. There is no sign-in step.

Never. We cannot sell your data because we do not collect it. We have zero access to your uploaded files, scores, or personal information.
