Pros

  • Tests your resume against specific named ATS platforms (Workday, Greenhouse, Taleo, iCIMS), not just a generic score
  • Free tier gives 5 scans a month — enough to check a few real applications without paying
  • Strong at diagnosing formatting problems that break parsing, not just missing keywords

Cons

  • It's a scoring/diagnostic tool, not a resume writer — you still have to make the edits yourself
  • Official pricing is only visible after signing into the app, so shop around independent reviews to confirm current rates before committing
  • Monthly billing ($49.95) is meaningfully more expensive than committing to the quarterly or annual plan

What Jobscan actually does

You paste in your resume and a target job description, and Jobscan returns a match rate along with specific keyword gaps. Its standout feature is testing against particular ATS platforms by name — Workday, Greenhouse, Taleo, iCIMS — rather than giving one generic score.

How it compares to a resume writer like JobOwl

Jobscan tells you what's wrong; it doesn't rewrite the resume for you the way a generative tool does. A common pairing job seekers use: draft or tailor the resume with an AI writer, then run it through Jobscan's free scans to double-check the ATS match before applying.

Frequently asked questions

Does Jobscan write resumes for me?
No — it scores and diagnoses an existing resume against a job description. You (or a separate tool) still have to make the edits.
How many free scans do I get?
