HyperApply vs ATS resume scanners
ATS scanners (or “resume score” tools) typically analyze your resume and compare it to a job description to produce a score and keyword suggestions.
ATS scanners: what they do
- Identify missing keywords
- Highlight formatting issues (sometimes)
- Give a match score (varies by tool and accuracy)
Their limitations
- Scores can be misleading (each ATS is different)
- Over-optimizing for keywords can reduce readability
- They don’t always help you rewrite bullets into role-specific impact
HyperApply’s approach
HyperApply aims to:
- align wording with the job listing when it matches your true experience
- keep bullets focused on outcomes and responsibilities
- produce a clean, structured PDF
You can still use scanners if you want an extra check—but HyperApply is designed to do the *rewriting* step, not just scoring.
