Which one should I start with?
Use the scannerwhen you have a resume and want a general sense of how it reads to an ATS — are your keywords covering the right ground, is your format clean, are you missing contact details? It scores against 10 industry profiles so you don’t need a specific job posting in mind.
Use the extractor when you already have a specific job in your sights and want to tailor to that exact posting. The output is a ranked keyword list you can paste straight into your resume edits.
A common workflow is both: extract the keywords from a posting, update your resume against them, then run the updated resume through the scanner to confirm the format-quality side still looks good.
