A resume tool that rewritesyour job title is not helping.This one discards a rewrite that moves a digit or a name.

Built to be trusted with the truth.

Three screens, then a file.

  1. 01

    Bring what you have

    Paste it, or drop a PDF, Word or text file onto the window. It is read by what it is, not what it is called. Nothing is uploaded; the file is read on your computer.

  2. 02

    Check what we read

    Every field it found is editable before anything is built, because a parser that guessed wrong should cost you a keystroke, not an interview.

  3. 03

    Pick a style and save it

    Twelve layouts, one accent colour, PDF or Word. About a second from picking to a file on your disk.

Measured on the app itself.

Timings from an Apple silicon laptop, taken while building it.

What a rewrite is allowed to change.

Both of these came back from a model. One reached the page. The other was discarded before it got near the document.

Kept

You wrote

Was responsible for managing a team of 6 engineers at Admiralty over 18 months

It came back as

Managed a team of 6 engineers at Admiralty over 18 months

Same 6, same Admiralty, same 18 months. The filler is gone.

Discarded

You wrote

Managed 6 engineers over 18 months

It came back as

Managed 18 engineers over 6 months

Both numbers are still there, so a careless check passes it. It says you managed three times the people for a third of the time, so this one does not.

The things people ask.

Is the free version limited?

No. The free pass lays your resume out and tightens the wording by rule: it removes filler like “responsible for”, leads with a past-tense verb, and flags bullets with no number in them. Adding a key changes who rewrites the phrasing, not what you are allowed to make or export.

What does “never changes a fact” actually mean?

Before a rewritten bullet is kept, the app compares digit runs and capitalized names in the order they appear. A plain Title Case word at the start of a sentence is skipped so verbs like “Managed” are not treated as names; acronyms and mixed-capitals there (AWS, PostgreSQL) are kept. A rewrite that moved one of those is discarded. It is a mechanical filter, not a full reading of meaning — verbs, lowercase names, and relationships can still drift, so the Check screen remains the backstop.

Does anything I type leave my computer?

Only if you add your own API key, and then only the bullet text, never your name, employer, dates or school. With the free pass or the offline model nothing leaves at all. There is no account, no analytics and no telemetry.

How big is the offline model, and how slow is it?

Three tiers from about 1.3 GB to 5.7 GB; the recommended one is about 2.7 GB, downloaded once, only if you ask for it. On an Apple silicon laptop that tier rewrote a 64-bullet resume in about 44 seconds. An API key is faster; the rule-based pass is instant.

Will the Word file look like the PDF?

The text, the order and the page count match, because both are built from the same document in metrically identical faces. Word’s spacing model is its own, so it is not pixel for pixel, and the app does not claim otherwise.

Can an applicant tracking system read it?

Yes. Every layout is real text in a normal single flow, and one of them, Sheet, is deliberately the plainest thing a parser can be handed.

Why is there no account?

Because there is nothing to sync. Your resume is one file in your own application data folder, and Settings shows you the exact path and will delete it.

My old resume is two columns. Will the import work?

Often, but a two column PDF can come out interleaved, and the app says so before you import one. That is what the Check screen is for: everything it read is editable before a single page is set.

Is there a Windows build?

Yes. 0.1.1 includes a Windows installer. It is unsigned, the same as Wallpaper, so SmartScreen will warn the first time.

0.1.1 is the first downloadable release.One license unlocks it.

macOS is signed and notarized. Windows is unsigned, the same as Wallpaper.
