Resume tools

Most resume builders lock your download behind a surprise $40/mo paywall. ForgeResume fixes this. • 100% Free: Instant vector-crisp PDF & Word (.doc) exports. • Strict ATS-Friendly: Modular single-column layout built to pass Workday, Greenhouse & Lever screeners. • True A4 Geometry: Calibrated formatting with zero page overflow. • Privacy-First: Zero watermarks, zero accounts, runs entirely in your browser.

Hey Product Hunt community! 👋 I'm the creator behind CareersForge, and I’m excited to launch ForgeResume today. Like many of you, I grew tired of modern resume tools that treat job seekers like cash cows. You invest 30 minutes tweaking bullet points and metrics, hit "Download," and get hit with a surprise subscription trap or a giant watermark. We took the opposite approach: 1. Zero Paywalls: Build, preview, and download 100% free. 2. ATS-Calibrated: Over 70% of enterprise resumes get discarded by automated screeners before a recruiter reads them. ForgeResume enforces a clean, modular single-column layout with high keyword density and quantifiable impact framing. 3. True A4 / US Letter Geometry: Precision-locked styling so your output never awkwardly cuts onto a second page mid-sentence. 4. Instant Word & PDF Exports: Export clean vector PDFs or editable .doc files directly from your browser with zero backend data storage. Give it a spin, export a copy, and let me know your thoughts!

Why are so many resume builders still locking downloads behind $40/mo paywalls?

Hey everyone!

While building CareersForge, one of the biggest complaints we constantly heard from job seekers was the classic "bait-and-switch" model: you spend 30 minutes carefully formatting your work history, hit download, and get trapped behind a surprise subscription or a giant watermark.

We're launching ForgeResume to take the opposite route: 100% free, client-side, with strict single-column ATS formatting and instant Word/PDF downloads.
