Everything a resume deserves
WYSIWYG PDF, truly
The preview is the export. Our engine renders your resume once and prints exactly what you see — custom fonts included.
A real section engine
Reorder, hide, rename or add sections — Experience, Publications, Volunteering, References, custom blocks. Your story, your structure.
ATS where it matters
Half our templates are engineered for parsers: clean reading order, real text, no layout tables. Plus one-click plain-text export.
Deep customization
16 templates × 10 palettes × 8 font pairings × 3 densities, plus a custom accent color and photo controls. Over a thousand looks.
Share with a link
Publish a live link with a QR code and view counts. Recruiters can read and download — you watch the signal.
Private by default
Drafts live in your browser until you say otherwise. EU-hosted, no data selling, no keyword stuffing, no watermark.
Frequently asked
Is CraftCV really free?
Yes. All 16 templates, the live editor, PDF export, plain-text export and share links are free. No watermark, no "one template on the free plan" trick, no trial countdown.
Will my PDF look like the preview?
Identical. The same engine builds the preview and the document we send to the print renderer — fonts, colors and spacing carry over exactly.
Do I need an account?
No. Build a full resume anonymously; it's kept in your browser. Create an account only to save online, share a link, or track views.
Are the templates ATS-safe?
Templates marked ATS use a single linear reading order, real text and parser-friendly headings. Creative two-column designs are better for humans and referrals — we tell you which is which.
Can I use it for a CV (long-form) too?
Yes — several templates paginate cleanly over multiple pages, and Folio is designed specifically for academic CVs with publications.
