The idea

A score is only useful if it changes an edit.

Bad score products turn hiring anxiety into a fake precision dashboard. OutRung uses a repeatable keyword comparison, then shows the evidence behind the result so you can decide what is genuinely worth changing.

Job-specific. Score this CV against the role it was written for.
Visible evidence. See the matched count and every missing keyword behind the number.
Human judgement. Add language only when your real experience supports it.

How the score works

01Extract

Pull the technical skills and role language the job description actually uses.

02Compare

Check which terms appear in the tailored CV and calculate a repeatable coverage score.

03Explain

Show the matched count, missing keywords and the highest-impact gaps behind the result.

04Improve

Make the edits your experience can support, then re-score the next version.

Guidance, not gospel

A high score can signal better alignment, but it never guarantees an interview. OutRung treats ATS scoring as a review aid — the final call stays with the person sending the application.

Common questions

What is an ATS score checker?

It compares a CV with a job description and shows how much of the role-specific language is covered. It is guidance, not a hiring prediction.

Where can I use the ATS score checker?

It is available now inside the OutRung CV workspace. Open a role-specific CV to score it, inspect missing keywords and re-score after editing.

Does a high score guarantee interviews?

No. Interviews depend on market conditions, timing, competition, experience, and human review.

Is OutRung free to use?

Yes. OutRung is free during open beta — no subscription and no credit card, with fair-use limits to prevent automated abuse.
