How we compare
Built different. Priced honestly.
Most resume builders let you build for free — then charge you to download. We don't do that.

FAQ
Common questions
Is the free plan actually free — no credit card?
Yes. Free plan is forever-free with no credit card required. You get 1 resume, a set of free templates, unlimited quick resume-to-job checks, 15 deep analyses, and a clean PDF export. We show pricing clearly before you sign up — no bait-and-switch.
What is an ATS check and why does it matter?
Applicant tracking systems help employers store and process applications, but workflows differ. SteadyCV checks practical signals such as readable structure, consistent dates, and overlap with a specific job description, then shows the evidence behind the result.
Can I switch templates without losing my data?
Yes. Your resume content is stored separately from the template design. Switch templates any time — all your work stays intact.
What's different about SteadyCV vs Zety or Canva?
Zety builds a resume then paywalls the download. Canva has thousands of generic templates but zero ATS support. SteadyCV has 27 templates built for specific industries with real sample content — and you can download for free without a credit card.
What file formats can I download?
Free plan: PDF. Pro plan: PDF and Word (.docx). Both formats are generated from the same source so formatting stays pixel-perfect.
Is my resume data private?
Your data is only used to generate and display your resume. We don't share, sell, or train AI models on your personal information.
