Use tool ↗About SortResume
SortResume.ai reads a batch of applicant resumes, scores each against the criteria for a role, and hands back a ranked shortlist rather than a folder of PDFs. It is sold on volume: free covers 10 resumes a month, Standard is $119 a month on annual billing ($149 month-to-month) for 100, and Premium $239 annual ($299 monthly) for 500. Both paid tiers include API access, so it can sit behind an existing applicant tracking system instead of being used as a front end. The vendor publishes only an email address - its iubenda-hosted terms document has been deactivated and no company entity or country is named.

Pros & cons of SortResume
A focused screening tool for small hiring teams drowning in applications, with an API so it can be wired into an existing ATS rather than replacing it. The pricing is per-resume in disguise - $119 for 100 a month works out at over a dollar per CV, which stops making sense at any real volume. The bigger caveat is governance: automated resume scoring is regulated in a growing number of jurisdictions and this vendor does not publish a company, a country, or working terms of service.
Pros
- Returns a ranked shortlist scored against the specific job criteria
- API access included on both paid tiers, not sold as an add-on
- Free tier of 10 resumes a month makes evaluation possible
- Straightforward volume tiers with no seat counting
Cons
- Effectively over $1 per resume at the entry tier
- No company entity, address or country published
- The linked terms-and-conditions document has been deactivated by its host
- No published accuracy or bias-audit data
Best for
- small teams screening dozens rather than thousands of applicants
- bolting a ranking step onto an existing ATS via API
- one-off hiring pushes for a single role
Not for
- high-volume enterprise recruiting
- employers in jurisdictions requiring documented bias audits of automated hiring tools
Watch out: Automated resume scoring is regulated in places like New York City and the EU; nothing on the site addresses bias auditing or candidate notice.
