How the check itself differs

Where the ATS check sits

Kickresume

The ATS Resume Checker is a Premium feature; the free plan does not include it.

Resymetry

The readability score is part of the free result, every time.

What your CV is compared with

Kickresume

"Thousands of successful CVs" in its database.

Source: Kickresume ATS resume checker, read 6 November 2026

Resymetry

The job or role you name.

Scope

Kickresume

A builder for resumes, cover letters and a personal site.

Source: Kickresume pricing, read 6 November 2026

Resymetry

One check on one CV against one job.

Which one to use

Kickresume, if: You want to see how other people wrote theirs, you need a cover letter too, and a yearly plan suits a long search.

Resymetry, if: You have the CV and the posting, and you want to know what is missing before you send it, without paying for months to find out.

Neither of us can promise you an interview

A score is a reading of how your CV matches a job, not a prediction of what an employer will do. Resymetry says what is missing and where; what happens next depends on the role, the other applicants and the people reading. Free ATS CV templates if your layout is the problem rather than the content.

Questions about Kickresume

Is Kickresume worth it?

If you want templates, examples and cover letters for a long search, the yearly plan at €96 is the cheapest way in. If you only need one CV checked against one job, a builder subscription is more than you need.

Is the Kickresume ATS checker free?

No. Kickresume's pricing page lists the ATS Resume Checker as a Premium feature. The checker page says it is available to verified students and teachers, and it compares your resume with successful CVs in its database.
