Section-driven editor

Experience, Education, Skills, Projects, Certifications, Languages, Volunteer. Add as many entries as you need; reorder by drag; hide irrelevant sections per role.

ATS-friendly PDF export

Text is extractable, headings are tagged, no embedded raster fonts. Recruiters can paste your resume into an ATS without it scrambling the structure.

Multiple resume versions

Keep a generic version + per-role versions (Engineering Lead, IC, Startup PM). Quick switch between them in the version picker. Tailoring a resume per application takes 5 minutes, not 50.

AI rephrase suggestions (Pro)

Paste a bullet, get 3 rephrased options that strengthen the verb and quantify impact. Uses on-device Apple Intelligence (iOS 18.1+, iPhone 15 Pro / 16+). No cloud upload of your work history.

No account, no email gate

Start typing, export the PDF, never sign up for anything. Resume data lives on-device only. Unlike Resume.io and Novoresume, no email subscription harvesting your resume content.

FAQ
Will the resume parse cleanly in ATS systems? +

Yes. All 8 templates are built around the structure ATS systems (Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, Taleo, iCIMS) parse correctly: linear top-to-bottom, tagged headings, no two-column tables, no embedded images. PDFs are text-extractable so the ATS can read every word.

How is this different from Resume.io or Novoresume? +

Resume.io charges $5/week ($260/year) after a paid “trial”. Novoresume is $300/year. Both lock you into their cloud account model and harvest your resume data for marketing. Resume Builder is $4.99/month with a 3-day trial, $14.99/year, or $19.99 lifetime, and stores nothing off your device.

Can I edit on iPad? +

Yes. The section editor is optimized for iPad with a side panel for sections and the live preview in the main area. Stage Manager support, Apple Pencil for handwriting in cover letter sections.

Will my resume data leave the device? +

No. Section content, version history, and exported PDFs all stay on-device. There is no Swarmval account, no cloud sync. iCloud Drive sync is optional and uses your Apple iCloud (not a Swarmval backend).

How many resumes can I save? +

Free tier saves 1 resume. Pro tier saves unlimited versions — typically you want a generic version plus 3–6 role-specific tailored versions for active job search. All saved locally.

Are the templates actually different? +

Yes — different fonts (Inter, Source Serif Pro, IBM Plex), different layouts (single vs two-column), different header treatments (centered, left-aligned, with photo, without). Spend 2 minutes previewing them; you’ll find one that matches the company’s aesthetic.
