About ATS Scanner Pro
A free, private resume checker and a set of honest guides, built by one developer who got tired of resume tools that upload your data and paywall the results.

Who builds it
ATS Scanner Pro is built and maintained by Kartikeya Mishra, an independent full-stack developer based in Lucknow, India. I write the scanner code, the keyword list and the guides. There's no venture funding and no sales team.
Why it exists
Job seekers apply to dozens of roles, and every application deserves a quick check against the posting. Most checkers cap free scans, ask you to create an account, and upload your resume — a document with your name, phone number, email and work history — to their servers. That's a poor trade for a keyword comparison that a browser can do on its own.
So ATS Scanner Pro makes three promises:
- Unlimited and free. The scanner costs us nothing per scan because it runs on your device.
- Private by design. Your resume never leaves your browser.
- No mystery numbers. The scoring formula is published in full.
Editorial policy
Our guides and role pages follow a few rules:
- No invented statistics. If we can't point to a credible source for a number, we don't use it. That rules out several figures that circulate widely in resume advice.
- Examples are labelled. Example bullets use made-up figures to show the shape of a good line, and say so.
- Honesty over keyword stuffing. We never advise adding skills you don't have or hiding text in your resume.
- No paid placements. We don't accept payment to recommend products. Ads are shown by Google AdSense, labelled "Advertisement", and are not endorsements.
- Reviewed and dated. Each guide shows when it was last updated. When advice changes, we revise the page rather than publish a new one.
- Corrections. If something is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it and update the date.
How the site is funded
The website is supported by a small number of ads from Google AdSense, placed away from the scanner's controls so they don't get in the way. The upcoming mobile app is in an invite-only preview; we'll be clear about any pricing before anyone is asked to pay for anything.
