About ATS Pass
AI-powered CV analysis that helps job seekers get past applicant tracking systems.
What is an ATS?
An Applicant Tracking System (ATS) is software used by employers and recruiters to manage the hiring process. It automatically scans and filters CVs before a human ever sees them, looking for specific keywords, formatting patterns, and qualifications that match the job description. Over 90% of large companies use an ATS, which means your CV needs to be optimised not just for people, but for machines too. If your CV doesn't pass the ATS, it may never reach a recruiter regardless of how qualified you are.
Our Mission
Most CVs are rejected by automated screening before a human ever reads them. ATS Pass exists to level the playing field. We analyse your CV against the job description you're targeting and give you a clear, actionable breakdown of how well it matches, plus concrete rewrite suggestions to improve your chances.
How It Works
1. Upload Your CV
Upload your CV (PDF or DOCX) along with the job description you want to target.
2. AI Analysis
Our two-stage AI pipeline scores your CV for ATS compatibility and identifies areas for improvement.
3. Get Results
Receive a detailed score, category breakdown, and rewrite suggestions to strengthen your application.
Technology
ATS Pass uses a two-stage AI pipeline. The first stage rapidly evaluates keyword alignment, formatting, and structure against ATS heuristics. The second stage performs deeper semantic analysis, comparing the meaning and context of your experience against the job requirements to surface nuanced improvements that keyword matching alone would miss.

Why a Daruma doll?
You might have noticed the Daruma doll in our logo. Daruma are traditional Japanese figures inspired by Bodhidharma, the founder of Zen Buddhism. In Japan, they are a beloved symbol of perseverance and achieving your goals.
The tradition works like this: when you set a goal, you paint in one eye of the Daruma. The blank eye serves as a constant reminder of your commitment. When you achieve your goal, you paint in the second eye to complete the doll and celebrate your success.
We chose the Daruma because the job search is exactly that kind of journey — it takes determination, resilience, and the willingness to keep improving. ATS Pass is here to help you along the way, so you can paint in that second eye when you land the role you're after.
