When applying for jobs, one of the most frustrating things is knowing your resume is solid, but still getting filtered out.
A big reason for that is ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems).
Most companies use ATS software to scan resumes for keywords pulled directly from the job description. If your resume doesn’t match closely enough, it never reaches a human.
I kept running into this problem while job searching, so I built a small free tool to make this step easier.
What the tool does
The ATS Keyword Extractor takes a job description and pulls out:
- Core role keywords
- Hard skills
- Soft skills
- Tools and platforms
- Must-have vs nice-to-have requirements
It doesn’t rewrite your resume or apply automatically. Instead, it generates a structured prompt you can paste into ChatGPT and then customize the output for your own resume.
No account required.
How to use it
- Paste a job description
- Click “Build prompt”
- Paste the prompt into ChatGPT
- Copy the keywords into your resume where relevant
That’s it.
Here’s the tool:

Why I built it this way
I wanted something:
- Fast
- Free
- Flexible
- Not locked behind a signup
You stay in control of the final resume — this just saves time and removes guesswork.
If you’re interested, I’ve also been building a small collection of similar job-search tools (resume bullets, cover letters, interview answers, follow-ups):

Feedback is welcome — especially ideas for other tools that would actually help during job searching.
