Free tools
Software tools. Free. Use them when you need them. Nine tools for the parts of job hunting, freelancing and everyday development work that are pure admin. All of them are free, none of them ask for an account, and none of them put a watermark on the thing you came here to make.
ATS Resume Scanner
Paste your resume and the job description. You get a match score, the keywords the posting uses that your resume does not, and what to change before you apply.
Who it is for: Anyone applying through a company careers portal, which is almost everyone.
Open ATS Resume ScannerResume Roaster
Blunt feedback on a resume in seconds. It quotes the weak lines back at you and rewrites them, instead of telling you to use more action verbs.
Who it is for: Anyone who has read their own resume so many times they cannot see it any more.
Open Resume RoasterLinkedIn Roaster
Paste a LinkedIn profile and get a cringe score, the red flags a recruiter notices, and a result card you can share.
Who it is for: Anyone whose profile still says "passionate about leveraging synergies".
Open LinkedIn RoasterResignation Letter Generator
A professional resignation letter in about a minute. You pick the notice period and how warm or formal it reads.
Who it is for: Anyone leaving a job who does not want to spend an evening on the wording.
Open Resignation Letter GeneratorInvoice Generator
Build an invoice and download it. No account, no watermark, no signup wall in the middle of it.
Who it is for: Freelancers and contractors who bill a handful of clients a month.
Open Invoice GeneratorWord and Character Counter
Live word and character counts with a meter for every limit you write against: a LinkedIn headline, an X post, a meta description, an SMS, a 650-word essay. One toggle leaves citations out of the count.
Who it is for: Anyone writing to a limit, from a cover letter to a caption.
Open Word and Character CounterJSON Formatter and Validator
Paste JSON to format it, minify it or browse it as a tree. When it will not parse you get the line, the column and the character it stopped on, and a button that repairs the usual damage and tells you what it changed.
Who it is for: Anyone who reads an API response, a config file or a log more than once a day.
Open JSON Formatter and ValidatorPassword Generator
A random password or a seven-word passphrase, made in this tab with the browser's own RNG. One tap to copy, the entropy shown in bits, nothing sent anywhere.
Who it is for: Anyone making an account who does not want the generator to see the password.
Open Password GeneratorMarkdown to PDF
Paste Markdown, see it render live, download a clean PDF. Nothing to install and the file never leaves your browser.
Who it is for: Anyone writing a resume, a README or notes in Markdown who needs to hand someone a PDF.
Open Markdown to PDF
Why these are free
They run on the same code as the products I sell, and they cost me close to nothing to keep online. If one of them saves you an evening, that is the whole point. If you want a tool that is not here yet, ask for it, or read how these get built on the blog.
