GhostCV

What it does

Most companies use LLMs or parsers to pre-screen resumes — and those systems often ignore your beautiful layout. ghostCV lets you embed an invisible AI-optimized layer into your PDF, without touching the design.

Transform your resume for AI screening. GhostCV embeds machine-readable keywords in your PDF while preserving your design. Pass through ATS filters and get more job interviews.

Before any human sees your resume, AI systems scan for specific keywords, experience levels, and skills. Your beautiful design doesn't matter if you don't pass the robot filter. Add a strategic summary hidden in your PDF alongside the original content. Target specific keywords, highlight relevant experience, and give AI systems the context theyfrom ghost-cv.com

In the maker’s words, at launch

I suspect a lot of resumes — especially the ones designed in Figma or exported from Canva — look great to humans but get completely butchered by resume parsers. Most of these systems don’t use vision or layout — they just extract raw text. And if the PDF is made of outlines, floating layers, or flattened design…

  RenderCV – Open-source CV/resume generator, YAML to PDFDec 2025 · github.com · ▲100

  I built RenderCV because Word kept breaking my layout and LaTeX was overkill. I wanted my CV as a single YAML file (content, design, margins, everything) that I could render with one command. Run rendercv render cv.yaml → get a perfectly typeset PDF. Highlights: 1. Version-controllable: Your CV is just text. Diff it, tag it. 2. LLM-friendly: Paste into ChatGPT, tailor to a job description, paste back, render. Batch-produce variants with terminal AI agents. 3. Perfect typography: Typst under the hood handles pixel-perfect alignment and spacing. 4. Full design control: Margins, fonts, colors,…

  Please, please reflect on your work before even writing a single resume bullet point. The problem is that most people don't actually know what to say about their own work. From my years of experience writing resumes professionally, I've noticed so many solid candidates undersell themselves. It's not like they haven't done nothing. It's just that they never practiced reflecting on their work. It's a skill, and nobody tells you it's part of the process! So before you write a single bullet, talk through your work first. So I built an AI tool that interviews you and brings out the right context…

  Trickle - Magic Canvas ▲1,064

  Hey HN! Introducing Trickle Magic Canvas: the world’s first Agentic Canvas, where you can visually co-create apps and websites with AI, from idea to production. Why is a canvas better? Most AI tools today rely on linear chats or text prompts. We believe that limits creativity and clarity. Canvas changes the game. 1. Every version & page at a glance. Each page and sub-page lives on a timeline. You can quickly browse, edit, and preview progress like a living, visual document — no more digging through chat logs or scattered states. 2. The canvas is the context. Unlike linear chats, you can…

  Ten years of running every day, visualized▲958

  Today marks ten years, 3653 consecutive days, of running at least one mile every day under the USRSA rules [1]. To celebrate, I built an interactive dashboard that turns a decade of GPX files into charts you can explore. Running has truly changed my life: I've made lifelong friends, explored beautiful places, and more importantly invested into my own health and fitness, which I'm starting to see the positive benefits as I get older. The stack is pretty simple: a NextJS app, with a Postgres database to keep all my running data, and all the stats are pre-computed and cached in Redis, so I…

  Draw a fish and watch it swim with the others▲935

  Made this website as an exercise in vibe-coding and GCP. It was posted about a few times around the internet, on sites like Morning Brew (https://www.morningbrew.com/issues/business-buzzkill), MetaFilter (https://www.metafilter.com/209703/Draw-A-Fish), boingboing.net, etc. I think it's cute! I built a basic CNN trained against penises and swastikas, and then anything that doesn't hit the 63% confidence score gets sent to a mod queue, a vibe-coded fish-tinder…

  Use Their ID – Use your local UK MP’s ID for the Online Safety Act▲862

  Hi HN - I made a site that takes a UK postcode, grabs the local MP's information and generates an AI mockup of what their ID might look like. It's a small, silly protest at the stupidity of the Online Safety Act that just came into force. edit - My open AI credits got hugged to death, please use a known postcode (like one from Kier Starmer's constituency, WC2B6NH) in the meantime.
