Smart Resume - Turn your CV into interviews with AI + ATS insights

Smart Resume shows you why your CV gets rejected and helps you fix it. Most resume tools just generate documents. Smart Resume analyses your CV against real job descriptions, identifies missing keywords, weak sections and positioning issues, and gives clear, actionable fixes. It also lets you practice interviews with AI, generate tailored CVs and cover letters, and track your job search with a visual pipeline so you can see where you’re losing opportunities.
