See which of your resume claims you could actually defend in an interview.
Runs entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded or stored.
Your claim-by-claim review appears here as you type.
What a claim review looks like
Take a common resume bullet and break it into separate claims — each one is a promise an interviewer can test.
The bullet
“Architected a highly scalable microservices platform serving millions of users.”
Claim review
- “Architected” · High — implies you selected the architecture and made the tradeoffs.
- “Highly scalable” · Medium — vague unless supported by real traffic, load, or constraints.
- “Millions of users” · Medium — a measurable claim that should be sourced.
Safer: Contributed to a microservices platform by implementing service boundaries and backend APIs for high-traffic product workflows.
How the checker reads your claims
It splits your text into individual claims and flags three patterns that get candidates caught: leadership verbs that imply ownership you may not have had (“architected”, “led”, “owned”),vague qualifiers that sound impressive but mean nothing (“highly scalable”, “world-class”), andunsourced metrics (“40%”, “millions of users”) that invite “how did you measure that?”.
It doesn't check grammar and it doesn't judge you — it shows what evidence you'd need to keep the stronger wording, and offers a safer alternative when the claim is risky.
When to use it
- Before you send — a final honesty pass on your strongest bullets.
- Prepping for interviews — see which claims will get probed and get ready.
- After using an AI resume generator — catch the inflation it slipped in.

Frequently asked questions
Exaggeration is risky because interviewers probe the strongest claims first. If you can't defend a bullet in detail, it becomes a liability, not an asset. The goal isn't to sound modest — it's to make claims you can back up.
