Show HN: Authentic AI CV optimizer – real keywords only, 90%+ ATS scores

https://www.cvora.net/

Hey HN,After applying to 300+ jobs over the last year and getting ghosted by ATS bots despite having solid experience (and seeing friends waste hours keyword-stuffing or using shady white-text prompts that recruiters now auto-reject), I got fed up.

So I built Cvora (https://www.cvora.net): an AI that takes your existing CV + a job description and: -Extracts only real keywords from the posting (zero hallucinations or invented skills) -Rewrites your bullets naturally and professionally to highlight what you've actually done -Generates a clean, ATS-proof PDF in seconds (tested against major systems like Greenhouse, Lever, Workday consistently 90-98% match) -Includes a simple dashboard to track all your applications (no more spreadsheet hell)

No fabricating experience. No prompt injection tricks. Just making your real background match the job better and faster. It's free to try with the first few generations, no card needed. Would love brutal feedback – does this solve a real pain? What sucks? Any ATS horror stories to improve against?

Thanks! Jaime

Hey Jaime, massive props for building this – I was in the exact same boat last fall: 200+ apps, solid SWE experience (5+ YOE, shipped multiple features at scale), but constant ATS black holes and ghosting. Tried the usual suspects (Teal, ResumeWorded, etc.), but they either spit out generic fluff or encouraged padding that felt sketchy.Gave Cvora a spin a couple weeks ago and honestly, it's the first one that felt right. Dropped my base CV + a senior backend role desc → extracted the exact keywords (Kubernetes, Go, microservices) without hallucinating anything. Bullet rewrites were natural – kept my real impact (e.g., "Reduced latency 40%" stayed, but phrased to match the JD's emphasis on performance). No invented stories. PDF generated in like 15 seconds, scored 96% on their checker (tested it against a real Lever posting I had). The dashboard is a lifesaver – I track 40+ apps now without Google Sheets chaos.

Already got 3 callbacks in the last 10 days (from ~15 tailored apps), which is way better than my previous 1-2% hit rate. The "no faking" promise actually delivers – recruiters can smell BS, and this avoids it completely.What sucks a tiny bit: Would love a quick export to Word/Google Docs for minor manual tweaks (PDF is great for submission, but sometimes I want to adjust one word). Also, multi-language support would be huge (I'm bilingual EN/ES).Keep going – this solves a real, painful problem without the shady shortcuts. Happy to beta test more features if you want. Thanks for shipping something honest!
