Check your resume against any job — with an honest ATS score
Applicant tracking systems screen resumes on keywords and structure before a human reads them. FitWright scores your resume against a specific job and shows exactly what is matched and what is missing — so you fix the real gaps.
What is an ATS resume checker?
An applicant tracking system (ATS) is the software most employers use to receive and filter job applications. It parses your resume and screens it for the keywords, skills, and structure a role requires — often before a recruiter sees it. An ATS resume checker estimates how well your resume matches a specific job so you can improve the fit before applying.
FitWright checks your resume against the exact job description you paste in. It returns a transparent match score and a breakdown of matched versus missing keywords and skills — no black box, and no fake "ATS pass" guarantees.

ATS resume checker FAQ
- What is an ATS score?
- An ATS score estimates how well a resume matches a specific job description, based on the keywords, skills, and structure that applicant tracking systems screen for. FitWright breaks its score into keyword, skills, and section sub-scores so the number is explainable.
- Does a high score guarantee an interview?
- No. No tool can guarantee an interview — hiring depends on many human factors. A strong match score means your resume is well-aligned and parseable for the systems that screen it, which is the part software actually measures.
- How does FitWright decide what is "missing"?
- It extracts the skills and keywords emphasized in the job description and compares them against your resume, then lists the required terms your resume does not currently cover so you can address the real gaps truthfully.
- Is the ATS checker free?
- Yes. FitWright is free and open source. You connect your own AI provider key, so you control the model and cost.
