Resume tailoring that asks first

The AI resume tool that doesn’t sound like AI.

And it never makes things up. When it needs a fact, it asks you.

3 tailored applications free. No card needed.

No resume yet? Build one in about ten minutes.

  • Asks before it assumes
  • Every added claim listed
  • 18 themes, restyled on hover
  • PDF and Word match the screen

Start here

Drop your resume. That is the whole first step.

PDF or Word, up to 10 MB. It becomes a page you can edit in place, then tailor to any job. Your first three tailored applications are free, and your file is never used to train anything.

  • Sign up with Google in one click; the upload carries on from there
  • Your resume opens ready to tailor, with every theme a hover away

How it works

From a job post to a file you can send, in five moves.

Upload a PDF or Word file and it becomes a page that looks exactly like the final document. Click any part to edit it in place. Then:

  1. Paste the job. See what you already cover.

    Paste a job description or a link and get a plain sentence, “You cover 6 of 9 must-haves”, with every requirement listed and the missing ones named. Nothing is rewritten yet.

  2. It asks before it assumes.

    When the job wants something your resume does not show, you get a question, not a guess. Say no and it stays off your resume. Say yes and your answer is the only source it will use.

  3. Aim for a score, with every addition listed.

    Optional. Ask it to reach for 90 and it lists each thing it added that your resume did not show, so you can back every one up or take it off.

  4. Pick a theme. The page restyles as you hover.

    Eighteen themes: ten that hiring software reads reliably, and eight creative ones for when a person opens it first. Choose brief, medium or extended and the length follows.

  5. Download PDF or Word. Both match the screen.

    The file is the page you edited: same line breaks, same fonts, same page count. Every tailored version is saved on its own, so your base resume is never overwritten.

Why it reads like you

Written from your resume, not around it.

  • Your facts only

    It reorders, selects and rephrases what is already in your resume. It never adds a number, an employer, a title or a date you did not give it.

  • Your voice

    It keeps your own wording where it can, and swaps inflated words for the plain one: led, used, ran, built.

  • A flag when something is new

    If a suggestion adds a claim your original did not make, it says so and asks whether it is true. Flagged suggestions are never accepted in bulk.

Words it will not put in your mouth

  • spearheaded
  • leveraged
  • orchestrated
  • utilized
  • fostered
  • seamless
  • robust
  • results-driven
  • proven track record
  • passionate about
A suggested rewrite marked Needs your confirmation. The new line adds, and raised deployment frequency 3x. Under it, a notice: This adds 3x, which isn't in your original, is it true? Buttons: It's true, Remove.
A real flag from the tailoring screen: the number is new, so it asks.
The review panel: 6 suggestions, 2 need your confirmation. A button, Accept all unflagged (4), and the note: Flagged ones are never accepted in bulk; each adds something your original did not say. Below, the suggestions grouped by section, with Pending or Needs your confirmation under each.
The review list keeps flagged suggestions out of “accept all”.
Things we added that your resume didn't show. Aimed for 90, reached 93. A list: Go, Kubernetes, on-call ownership, Terraform, gRPC, each marked Waiting for you. A note: Be ready to speak to this, or add real experience before you apply. Button: Accept all added items (3).
Optional “Aim for 90”: ask it to match the job anyway, and it lists every item it added so you can back each one up.

Themes and files

Eighteen themes. What you see is the file.

Hover a theme in the editor and your resume changes on the spot. Every page below is drawn live by the same renderer that makes your PDF, with one invented resume.

Themes: Classic, Modern, Minimal, Harvard, Executive, Banker, Tech, Academic, Elegant, Contrast, Bloom, Botanica, Atelier, Mosaic, Ribbon, Sketch, Deco, Wave.

  • Download PDF or Word. Both match the page you edited.
  • The ten safe themes are single column, with no tables and no icons: an applicant tracking system reads them top to bottom, in order.
  • Brief, medium or extended: choose a length and the resume is written to it.
  • Every tailored version is saved on its own. Your base resume is never overwritten.

Not sure what the ATS will read?

Drop any resume and read the plain text an applicant tracking system pulls out of it. Free, no signup, and we do not keep the file.

No resume yet

Build one by answering questions.

About ten minutes, and the page fills in while you talk.

  • One question at a time, in plain language. Talk the way you would to a friend.
  • Each drafted line shows the words of yours it came from.
  • A number you never mentioned is held back and asked about. It is not on your resume until you say it is true.

Around the application

    Pick a length and the resume is written to it, not cut off at it.

Privacy

Your resume stays yours.

A resume holds your name, your contact details and your work history. Here is what happens to it, and what does not.

  • Your resume is used only to provide the service.
  • It is not sold to anyone.
  • It is not used to train AI models.
  • You can delete your account and everything in it.

The text of your resume is sent to our AI provider, Anthropic, to produce the match report and the suggestions. Read the privacy policy.

FAQ

Questions, answered plainly

  • Will it make things up?

    No. It only reorders, selects and rephrases what is already in your resume. It will not add numbers, tools, job titles or skills you did not give it, and it can only surface a skill if that skill already appears in your resume. When the job asks for something it cannot find, it asks you instead of guessing. You should still read every version before you send it: it is your resume and your name on it.

  • Will my resume sound like it was written by AI?

    It is built not to. It avoids the vocabulary recruiters now read as machine-written, such as “spearheaded”, “orchestrated”, “leveraged” and “results-driven”, and it keeps your own wording where it can. Everything is written on a page you can edit, so you can change any line you do not like.

  • Does it work with applicant tracking systems?

    The PDF and the Word file you download are a single column with no tables and no icons, so an applicant tracking system reads them from top to bottom in the right order. You can check any resume with the free See what the ATS sees tool. We cannot promise how any particular system will rank you. No tool can.

  • What can I upload?

    A PDF or a DOCX. Your resume is read into an editable page that looks like the final document, so you can correct anything that was read wrongly before you tailor it.

  • Does tailoring change my original resume?

    No. Every tailored version is saved separately, one per job. Your base resume is never overwritten.

  • Can I download a PDF, or a Word file?

    Both. The PDF and the Word file match the page you edited, in the template you chose. Downloading a resume you built is never paywalled.

  • What happens to my resume?

    It is used only to provide the service. It is not sold and it is not used to train AI models. The text is sent to our AI provider, Anthropic, to produce the match report and the tailored version. You can delete your account and your data. The details are in the privacy policy.

  • What do I get for free?

    3 tailored applications, with no card needed. Downloading a resume you built is never paywalled, on any plan. See pricing for the passes and the monthly plan.

  • Can I cancel?

    Passes are one-time payments that do not renew, so there is nothing to cancel. The monthly plan can be cancelled in one click from your account. Got the job? Cancel and you will not be charged again. If anything goes wrong, write to support@mg.www.magicalresume.com.
