Building the Resume Tool We Wished Existed
ResumeForge started from a simple frustration: every resume builder either costs too much, collects too much data, or produces mediocre output. We built the alternative.
Our Mission
We believe that creating a professional resume shouldn't require a subscription, a credit card, or handing over your personal career data to third-party advertisers.
Job hunting and academic applications are already stressful. Your resume tool should be fast, private, free, and produce beautiful documents that pass ATS filters and impress human recruiters.
Our Core Principles
The four pillars that guide every decision we make.
Privacy First
Zero user tracking, zero server-side storage of personal information. Your data lives in your browser's localStorage and never touches our servers.
Free Forever
No paywalls, no trial periods, no locked templates, no watermark on downloads. Everything is completely free for students, researchers, and professionals.
Open & Transparent
Built with modern open web standards — Next.js, Tailwind CSS, TypeScript, and React PDF. Clean code with zero hidden telemetry or tracking bloat.
Professional Grade
ATS-optimized layouts, pixel-accurate vector PDF rendering, and native Word DOCX generation that look stunning on screens and in print.
Built with Modern Tech
The open-source stack that powers ResumeForge.
