Get your week back from 500 dev resumes
Junior dev roles pull 500+ applicants. Senior roles are not far behind. Upload the pile, get a shortlist ranked against your stack, and put the days you would have spent reading PDFs back into shipping.

Where the week actually goes
10–15 hours per role, gone
That is one or two engineering days each open role. For a founder-led team, that is product not shipping while you sort PDFs.
80% noise, 20% signal
Mass applications, generated resumes, and keyword stuffing make most of the pile unqualified. Finding the real engineers eats your evenings.
The wrong tool to fix it
A full ATS replaces your entire hiring workflow and asks you to learn a new system. You did not start a company to admin pipelines and scorecards.
Best candidate stays buried
Strong applicants get lost on page 47. By the time you would have found them, they have already signed somewhere else.
Everything you need to hire engineers, nothing you don't
Built around one job: take the resume pile off your desk so you can get back to building.
Reads stacks like an engineer would
React experience counts toward a Vue role. Kubernetes implies Docker. Real technical matching, not keyword filters.
Bias stripped before scoring
Names, photos, and demographic info removed before any ranking. Engineers judged on skills alone.
Resumes parsed for you
Upload PDFs, ZIPs, or whole folders. Tech stacks, years of experience, and GitHub links pulled automatically.
Per-requirement scores
See how each candidate matched each requirement. Know exactly why someone scored 85% vs 60%.
500 resumes, ranked in minutes
Hand over the 20 hours you would have spent on manual screening. Come back to a ranked list.
Keyword stuffing flagged
Resumes that list every technology ever shipped get flagged. Focused, relevant experience rises.
From inbox to ranked shortlist in three steps
Minutes, not days. No workflow to learn.
Write down what you actually need
Paste your job description or upload a PDF. Requirements like "5+ years Python" and "K8s experience" get pulled out.
Drop the resume pile in
Drag in 500 resumes at once — PDFs, ZIPs, whole folders. Everything parsed in seconds.

Built by a founder who got tired of losing weekends to PDFs

- Full per-requirement scoring and notes
- Five-minute setup, not five meetings
What we actually believe
“A full ATS is the wrong shape for a 1–10 person team. You do not need a workflow — you need your weekend.”
ClearMatch removes one bottleneck instead of installing a whole new system.
“Engineering leads should not be moonlighting as resume readers.”
Hand off the pile. Spend the time on what only you can do.
“Upload, rank, hire. That is the whole loop.”
No pipelines to configure, no stages to define, no training session to sit through.
“Resume spam is an engineering problem. It deserves an engineering tool, not a keyword filter from 2005.”
Read every resume against your real requirements — semantically, not by string match.
