Free ATS CV Audit

    FreeCVAudit.com is a free ATS CV audit. You upload a CV (PDF, DOC or DOCX, up to 4 MB) and receive an instant report scoring ATS compatibility, professional impact, content strength and structure — with no account and no payment required.

    What is a free ATS CV audit?

    An ATS (applicant tracking system) CV audit checks whether a CV is likely to be read correctly by recruiting software and whether its content is clear to a recruiter. The FreeCVAudit audit reads the text of your file and applies fixed rules to it; it does not use AI and does not send your CV to an AI model.

    What does the free audit check?

    • Contact details: whether email, phone and similar details can be found.
    • Standard sections: whether recognisable sections such as experience, education and skills are present.
    • Readability for parsers: unusual symbols, bullet usage and very long paragraphs.
    • Length: whether the CV is unusually short or long.
    • Impact: quantified results, action verbs and weak or generic phrases.
    • Clarity: bullet length, repetition and first-person wording.
    • Image-only PDFs: files with no extractable text, which text-based ATS parsers cannot read.

    What is free and what is paid?

    The audit and its scores are free. An optional ATS-ready revised CV, delivered as a PDF by email, costs $9.99 (9,99 € on the French site). Optional add-ons are a job-tailored CV, a LinkedIn headline and About section, and an expert rewrite written by a person.

    Does the audit guarantee I will pass an ATS?

    No. Each employer configures its own ATS and screening criteria. The audit flags common, well-documented readability and content issues; it cannot predict a specific employer's decision.
