The difference

A parser gives you data. This one also tells you how well the candidate fits.

Overall match score

A single 0–100 score that tells you how well this candidate fits the role — consistent, explainable, and comparable across every resume.

Skills & experience breakdown

Beyond the overall score, you get skills_match and experience_match sub-scores so you can see exactly where a candidate is strong or weak.

Consistent rubric

Every resume is scored against the same rubric. No human bias, no fatigue. The same resume gets the same score every time.

Integrate in minutes

Parse and score in a single call. Pass a file and optional job description.
