▣ About us

Made for recruiters who'd rather be placing candidates

FormatMyCV is a focused team building one thing well: the fastest, most accurate way to turn any candidate document into a client-ready CV.

Our story

We started with a simple observation

Stacks of paper documents and file folders on a desk

The best consultants we knew were spending hours every week doing work that had nothing to do with recruitment. They were not sourcing, interviewing or advising clients. They were copying text between Word documents, fixing fonts that would not behave, rebuilding bullet points and deleting phone numbers before a CV could go out.

It was repetitive, it was error-prone, and nobody ever hired a recruiter because they were good at it.

Typewriter with a page reading Artificial Intelligence

General-purpose AI tools did not solve the problem. They could rewrite a paragraph, but they could not reliably read a scanned two-column CV, keep every date and employer intact, and produce a document in an agency's exact house style.

So we built a product that does exactly that — and nothing that gets in the way of it. Today FormatMyCV is used by more than 200 recruitment teams worldwide.

Our mission

Give recruiters their week back

Every hour we remove from document admin is an hour a consultant can spend with candidates and clients. That is the metric we care about most.

Do one thing exceptionally well

We are not trying to be your ATS, CRM or job board. We focus on turning any candidate document into a client-ready CV.

Keep the recruiter in control

AI does the heavy lifting, but a consultant always reviews the result, with inline editing built into every workflow.

Treat candidate data with care

A CV is personal information. We store it in encrypted infrastructure with controlled access and deletion on demand.

What we care about

The principles behind the product

Accuracy

A formatting engine that gets it wrong wastes more time than it saves. Ours is measured against real agency CVs, not clean synthetic data.

Brand fidelity

Your house style is your product. We build custom templates in about 48 hours because "close enough" is not the standard your clients expect.

Speed to value

No sales gauntlet, no integrations. Sign up, format ten CVs on us and judge for yourself.

Security

Encryption, access controls and audit logs. Candidate data is treated as the sensitive record it is.

Working with us

What you can expect from us

  1. Honest trials

    Ten free CVs with no credit card. We would rather you judge the product on your own documents than on a polished demo.

  2. Real people in support

    Questions go to a small team who know the product inside out, with team members across the UK and India.

  3. Templates built by designers

    Your house style is recreated by our design team, typically within 48 hours, and updated whenever you rebrand.

  4. Pricing that scales fairly

    Unlimited team seats on every plan. You pay for the CVs you format — never per user.

The product

What FormatMyCV does, in three steps

  1. Upload any CV

    PDF, Word, scan, image or LinkedIn URL — or forward it by email.

  2. AI formats it

    Every section is extracted, standardised and placed into your branded template.

  3. Review and send

    Edit inline, anonymise if needed and export as PDF, Word or a secure link.

Security

How we look after candidate data

Security is one of our four principles, not an add-on.

Red padlock on a black computer keyboard representing data security
  • Encrypted in transit and at rest — CVs are protected from upload to export.
  • Access controls and audit logs — only your workspace can see your candidates, and exports are logged.
  • Retrieve or delete on demand — respond quickly to candidate data requests.
  • GDPR-friendly workflows — anonymise before sharing and keep only what each stage needs.
  • No copy-pasting into public chatbots — consultants use the AI tools inside the FormatMyCV editor instead.
