About FitBrief
FitBrief is a free, browser-based comparison tool. It reads one job description, splits it into requirements, and pairs every requirement with the resume sentence that supports it — or with an honest note that no evidence was found.
The default matcher is local and deterministic: the same resume and the same job description produce the same matrix. It treats exact wording as one signal and keeps the underlying resume passage visible, so you can tell real evidence from an accidental word overlap.
Deterministic does not mean infallible. A match is a passage to review, not proof that you meet the employer's intent, and a missing label means the submitted text did not support the requirement — not that you lack the experience.
File parsing, scanned-PDF OCR, and the default comparison run in your browser. FitBrief has no account system, no application database, and no server-side document upload. The optional AI steps send only the disclosed input — prepared scanned page images or extracted text — to DeepSeek, after a separate explicit consent action, and are described in detail on the privacy page.
The role guides and tool pages on this site explain how to use the comparison for a specific purpose, such as keyword scanning or checking a parsed resume. They are educational guidance about your own documents, not claims about any employer's process.
