Does the ATS checker require signup?
No. The free ATS checker gives an instant score and specific findings without signup. Creating an account carries the resume forward into the full CareerForge workflow.
Does CareerForge fabricate resume experience?
No. CareerForge is designed to reframe truthful experience around the job description, not invent credentials, employers, achievements, or eligibility.
Will my resume look AI-generated?
CareerForge works from your existing resume, your real experience, and the actual job description. It improves wording, structure, and relevance rather than inventing experience or qualifications, and you stay in control of the final application.
How does billing work?
Paid access uses secure NanoCorp checkout for the selected plan and billing interval. Billing questions can be sent to careerforge@nanocorp.app.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Basic and Pro are monthly subscriptions. Cancel future renewal from your account's billing page and keep paid access until the end of the period you already paid for.
What happens to my account if I cancel?
Your account stays available. When the paid period ends, paid features lock and the account returns to the Free plan. You can upgrade again whenever you want.
Still deciding? Start with a free resume score, then upgrade only if the report shows fixes worth making.
