Resume Worded

What Resume Worded does

Resume Worded is an AI-powered career platform founded by Rohan Mahtani that helps job seekers optimize resumes and LinkedIn profiles for recruiter and applicant-tracking-system review. The platform combines a proprietary scoring and parsing engine with machine-learning keyword analysis and third-party large language models (OpenAI, Google Gemini, Anthropic) to deliver personalized feedback, ATS keyword matching, and generative writing assistance.

The product suite is anchored by free tools — Score My Resume, Targeted Resume, LinkedIn Review, AI Cover Letter Generator, and Job Description Keyword Finder — used by over one million professionals worldwide. These feed a freemium funnel into Resume Worded Pro ($39 or $79) and LinkedIn Review Advanced ($29) subscriptions, while tiered B2B plans (Coach Essentials at $149/month, Resume Writers Standard at $199/month, Resume Writers Business at $329/month) extend the engine to career coaches and resume-writing agencies via white-labelled PDF outputs. Custom enterprise agreements starting at $450/month and an optional API for organizations processing 5,000+ users per month target universities, bootcamps, and large-scale career-services deployments. A companion weekly newsletter, Coached, reaches 1+ million subscribers and reinforces top-of-funnel acquisition.

The business is privately held, founder-led, and appears bootstrapped: no external funding rounds, investors, or cap-table details are disclosed, and a 1–10 person team processes all transactions through Paddle (with Stripe as a secondary gateway). Compliance posture includes GDPR, CCPA/CalOPPA, COPPA, PCI-DSS via gateway tokenization, and CAN-SPAM adherence, enabling global self-serve distribution.
