How to use AI Resume Builder and CV Maker

- Fill in the sections. Reorder them, hide the ones you do not need, and watch the live PDF preview update page by page.
- Pick a template, colour and font. Use Fit to one page if you are slightly over.
- Run the resume score, then sign in with a free account and download your PDF (Word and plain text come with a Resume Pass).
What the resume builder does
FixDoks gives you a guided editor for writing a resume or CV, with a live preview that is the real PDF. What you see on screen is what you download, page by page. There is no layout that shifts when you export.
You can begin without an account. Your draft is saved in the browser on that device, so you can close the tab and come back. When you are ready to download or use the AI helpers, sign in with a free account using Google or email. Signing in also saves your resumes across devices and keeps up to 60 documents.
Three ways to start
- Start fresh. A short guided setup asks your experience level, the job you are aiming for, where you are applying and which template you like.
- Upload an old resume. Add a PDF or Word file up to 6 MB. The AI copies it into editable sections so you do not retype anything. The file is read on our server and is not stored.
- Paste text. Paste your resume or your LinkedIn profile text and it is split into sections for you.
If you only want to look around first, use the sample option to open a filled-in example.
What you can put in it
The editor covers contact details with an optional photo, a summary or career objective, work experience, internships, education with a CGPA or percentage field, projects, skills, positions of responsibility, certifications, awards, languages, volunteering, publications, interests, references, personal details and a declaration with place and date. You can also add your own custom sections and rename any heading.
Skills can be shown as tags, a plain list, bars or dots. You can move sections and entries up or down, hide a section without deleting it, and undo or redo any change.
Sixteen templates, one set of content

Using the AI helpers
The AI runs on an open-source language model through our provider. It can write three summary options, turn rough notes into bullet points, improve a line, suggest skills for a job title, tailor your resume to a job description (Resume Pass) and draft a cover letter. When it writes bullets from your notes it uses only what you gave it, and leaves placeholders like [X%] where a number would help. You must replace those with real figures.
Always read AI text before you use it. It can be wrong or too generic, and the facts on your resume have to be yours. Each account has a daily AI allowance that resets at midnight IST.
Check before you send
The built-in resume score runs rule-based checks on contact details, length, standard headings, bullets, action verbs, measurable results, first-person pronouns, buzzwords, dates, page count and layout. Paste a job description and it also compares keywords. If you only want a check on an existing file, use the ATS resume checker.
Downloads
PDF keeps text selectable, which matters because many job portals read the text layer. The Word file uses a simplified layout so it is easy to edit elsewhere. The plain text version is for portal boxes that ask you to paste your resume. Need to shrink or convert a file afterwards? Try compress PDF or Word to PDF.
A note on photos
In the US, UK, Canada and Australia, leave the photo off. In India and the Gulf a photo is common. The builder lets you turn it on or off with one switch, and you can prepare a suitable picture with the passport size photo maker.
