## What it is
Resume Matcher is an open-source, self-hosted AI application that tailors resumes and cover letters to specific job descriptions using LLMs (cloud or local via Ollama). It parses a master resume, analyzes job postings for keywords, scores match rates, and exports polished PDFs through a built-in resume builder.

## Use cases
- tailor my resume to a specific job description with AI
- check how well my resume matches a job posting and which keywords are missing
- build an ATS-friendly resume for free without paying for services
- generate cover letters from my resume and a job description
- run resume tailoring locally with Ollama so my data stays private
- parse my existing resume PDF and edit it in a builder
- optimize my resume keywords to get past applicant tracking systems

## When to choose
- you apply to many jobs and want tailored resumes generated quickly from a master resume
- you want a free, open-source alternative to paid resume optimization services
- privacy matters and you want everything running locally with Ollama
- you want keyword gap analysis and match scoring against job descriptions

## When to avoid
- you need a fully automated job-application bot that submits applications for you
- you want a simple static resume template editor without AI features
- you cannot run Python/Node.js or Docker locally and don't want to self-host
- you need guaranteed ATS pass rates - no tool can promise that
