No database

Your resume stays in your browser.

There is no server database. Resumes, job sessions, and generated documents are stored locally by default — nothing sits on our servers unless you turn on cloud backup yourself.

Everything after the resume

Job search

Pull in postings and evaluate fit before you spend a credit on them.

Resume grading

A deterministic Screen-Readiness score, recomputed server-side — never model-reported.

Gap analysis

See exactly which keywords the role wants and which ones your resume already covers.

Cover letters

A problem-solution letter grounded in the same job description, not a generic template.

Interview prep

Talking points and follow-up sequencing built from your actual application.

Chrome extension

Auto-fills job application forms from your profile. Never auto-submits.

Want the gap analysis without signing up? Run the free ATS resume checker — paste a resume and a posting, and it runs in your browser.

Questions

The things people ask first

What does Headstart do?

Headstart turns a resume and a job description into a tailored application package. It scores how well the resume matches the role, rewrites the resume with the keywords that role actually asks for, drafts a matching cover letter, and produces an application strategy brief with predicted interview questions.

Is Headstart free?

Every new Headstart account is granted three free credits, which cover three complete tailored applications — a rewritten resume, cover letter, gap analysis and strategy brief for three different jobs. No card is required to sign up.

Does Headstart store my resume?

No. By default, Headstart stores resumes, job descriptions and generated documents in your own browser's local storage, not on its servers. An optional Cloud Backup can be switched on, and turning it off deletes every server-side copy immediately.

Is my resume used to train AI models?

No. Resume and job description text is sent to Anthropic's Claude API to generate output and is not used to train models. Headstart's own usage log records only which model was called and what it cost, never the content of the request or the output.

How does Headstart score a resume?

Headstart computes a Screen-Readiness score server-side against an explicit rubric covering header compliance, layout safety, bullet structure and readability. The score is calculated from the parsed document rather than reported by the language model, so the same resume produces the same score every time.

Will a resume from Headstart pass an applicant tracking system?

Headstart optimises for the things ATS parsers demonstrably break on — unusual headers, multi-column layouts, tables, missing dates and absent keywords — and shows which of the job's keywords the resume covers. No tool can guarantee passage through a specific employer's system, and Headstart does not claim to.

Does Headstart apply to jobs for me?

No. The Headstart Chrome extension fills application forms from a saved profile to save retyping, but it never submits an application automatically. A person reviews and submits every application.
