Frequently Asked Questions
What does the free resume check tell me?
Paste your resume text to check common sections, contact details, length, and formatting signals. The score is a SmartCV guide, not a hiring platform’s ATS result.
What can AI help me write?
In the editor, you can request a personal summary, work-experience wording, and skill suggestions. You can also run job-description analysis. AI actions share your plan’s allowance, and you should review every result.
Do I need an existing resume?
No. Start from a blank resume or a template, or upload a text-based PDF or Word file. If you import a file, review and correct the extracted details before saving.
Which files can I import and download?
Import PDF, DOC, or DOCX files up to 10 MB. Scanned images are not supported. Download a saved resume as PDF or DOCX; the layouts can differ between formats, so check the exported file.
What is included in the free plan?
New free accounts: 1 saved resume, Clean Code template, 30 signup credits after email verification and 5 exports in a rolling 30 days. Existing accounts keep their original free allowance: 3 saved resumes, basic templates and 10 AI actions per 30-day period. Existing resumes remain editable after a subscription ends.

How is my information used?
Your account stores resumes and job records. AI features send relevant content for processing. Review the Privacy Policy and enter only the information you want to use for your applications.
How do I tailor a resume to a job?
Open your resume in the editor, add the target job description for analysis, and review the suggestions. Edit the sections you need and use only keywords and claims that accurately describe your experience.
Can I keep resumes for different roles?
Yes. Save separate resumes and edit each one for its target role, within your plan’s resume limit. You can also record jobs, statuses, and notes in the application tracker; it does not submit applications for you.
