Resume AI

A self-hosted AI resume builder that tracks job applications, exports PDF and DOCX files, and works with local Ollama or cloud AI providers.

Resume AI helps job seekers write resumes for specific roles and keep them alongside their job applications. It combines resume editing with an application board, so each role can have its own saved drafts.

  • Role-specific resumes: Generate a draft from a job description and optional profile notes, then edit the result before saving it.
  • Application tracking: Organize applications on a Kanban board, move cards between columns, and use AI to summarize the board, suggest tags, or propose next steps.
  • Resume history: Keep multiple resume versions attached to an application card and export the latest saved version.
  • Document export and checks: Export PDF or DOCX files through Pandoc and receive warnings about hidden content that could affect applicant tracking systems (ATS).

The workspace runs on your own machine or server through Docker Compose. Local Ollama keeps AI processing on your hardware and supports models such as Gemma 3. Generated resumes and related files stay in a local output directory.

You can also connect to Ollama Cloud or an OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Those choices send AI requests to the selected provider; Ollama Cloud requires an API key and avoids the need to run a model locally. The project is open source under the MIT license.
