      <description>&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  What is Nexaura?
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Nexaura is a full-stack AI Resume Intelligence Platform I built &lt;br&gt;
completely from scratch. Upload your PDF resume and get instant &lt;br&gt;
AI analysis, ATS scoring, career coaching, and interview preparation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Live Demo: &lt;a href="https://ai-resume-intelligence-platform-two.vercel.app" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://ai-resume-intelligence-platform-two.vercel.app&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;GitHub: &lt;a href="https://github.com/Sasanksurya/AI-Resume-Intelligence-Platform" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://github.com/Sasanksurya/AI-Resume-Intelligence-Platform&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  The Problem
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;75% of resumes are rejected by ATS systems before a human ever &lt;br&gt;
sees them. Job seekers don't know which skills are missing and &lt;br&gt;
get no personalized feedback. Nexaura solves this completely.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Features
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Resume Upload — PDF text extraction using PyMuPDF&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Resume Summary — AI extracts Name, Skills, Experience, Education&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;AI Resume Chat — Ask anything about your resume using RAG pipeline&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Quick ATS Score — Match resume against any job description instantly&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Deep Analysis — Custom 4-Agent AI Pipeline&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Interview Question Generator — 10 tailored questions from your resume&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Resume Improvement Suggestions — AI powered career advice&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  The 4-Agent AI Pipeline
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The most powerful feature is the custom multi-agent system:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Agent 1 — Resume Analyzer&lt;br&gt;
Reads your full resume and extracts all key information with high accuracy&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Agent 2 — JD Matcher&lt;br&gt;
Compares resume against job description and identifies matched and missing skills&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Agent 3 — ATS Scorer&lt;br&gt;
Calculates ATS score from 0 to 100 based on keyword density and skill matches&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Agent 4 — Career Coach&lt;br&gt;
Gives 5 specific actionable suggestions to improve your resume for the exact role&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Each agent passes its output to the next agent as context making &lt;br&gt;
the final result much more accurate than a single AI call.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Tech Stack
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Frontend:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Next.js 14&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;TypeScript&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Tailwind CSS&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Deployed on Vercel&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Backend:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;FastAPI (Python)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;LangChain&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;FAISS Vector Database&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;RAG Pipeline&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Groq AI with llama-3.3-70b-versatile&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;TF-IDF Embeddings with Scikit-learn&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;PyMuPDF for PDF extraction&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Deployed on Render&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  System Architecture
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;How it works step by step:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;User uploads PDF resume&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;PyMuPDF extracts all text from PDF&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;LangChain splits text into smaller chunks&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;TF-IDF converts chunks into vector embeddings&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;FAISS stores vectors in memory and on disk&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;When user asks a question the RAG pipeline searches FAISS&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Most relevant chunks are passed to Groq LLM as context&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Groq generates accurate response based only on resume content&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Response is displayed on the Next.js frontend&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This RAG architecture ensures the AI never hallucinates — &lt;br&gt;
it can only answer from your actual resume content.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Why I Used TF-IDF Instead of BERT
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Render free tier has a 512MB memory limit. Heavy embedding &lt;br&gt;
models like BERT or sentence-transformers require PyTorch &lt;br&gt;
which is 800MB alone. I built a custom TF-IDF embedding class &lt;br&gt;
that extends LangChain base Embeddings — extremely lightweight, &lt;br&gt;
no GPU needed, runs reliably on free infrastructure.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This was an important engineering decision that kept the entire &lt;br&gt;
system running within free tier limits.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Deployment
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Frontend is deployed on Vercel with automatic deployments &lt;br&gt;
from GitHub main branch.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Backend is deployed on Render as a Python web service. &lt;br&gt;
Environment variables for GROQ_API_KEY are stored securely &lt;br&gt;
in Render dashboard.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Both are production live right now — not a localhost demo.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  API Endpoints
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;div class="table-wrapper-paragraph"&gt;&lt;table&gt;
&lt;thead&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;th&gt;Method&lt;/th&gt;
&lt;th&gt;Endpoint&lt;/th&gt;
&lt;th&gt;Description&lt;/th&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/thead&gt;
&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;POST&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;/api/upload&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;Upload PDF resume&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;GET&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;/api/resume-summary&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;Get AI resume summary&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;POST&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;/api/chat&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;Ask question about resume&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;POST&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;/api/ats-score&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;Quick ATS analysis&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;POST&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;/api/ats-score-crew&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;Deep 4-agent ATS analysis&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;GET&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;/api/interview&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;Generate interview questions&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;GET&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;/api/improve&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;Get resume improvements&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/div&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  What I Learned
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Building Nexaura taught me:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;How RAG pipelines work in production&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;How to use FAISS for vector similarity search&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;How to build multi-agent AI systems&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;How to deploy FastAPI on Render with environment variables&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;How to connect Next.js frontend to FastAPI backend&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;How to optimize for memory limits on free cloud infrastructure&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;How to handle CORS, async endpoints, and file uploads in FastAPI&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
