Job Description Keyword Extractor
Paste any job description. Get the keywords that ATS systems and hiring managers actually look for — categorized into must-haves, nice-to-haves, and soft skills.
Frequently asked
Why does keyword extraction matter for my job application?
Most large companies use Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) that filter resumes by keywords before a human ever sees them. If your resume doesn't mirror the language of the JD, you can be screened out even when you're a strong fit.
How is this different from doing it manually?
You can absolutely highlight a JD by hand. The AI version is faster, separates must-haves from nice-to-haves, and explains why each keyword matters — useful when you're applying to many jobs in a session.
Do you store my job description?
We store the AI's analysis (so you can share the result link) but only a 200-character excerpt of the original JD. Results auto-delete after 30 days.
What's the catch?
No catch — this tool is free and unlimited within reasonable rate limits. We hope you'll like it enough to try the full JobFit, which actually rewrites your resume to match the JD.
Is this better than ChatGPT?
For this specific task, the structured output is sharper. ChatGPT will give you a paragraph; this gives you a categorized, ranked list with explanations — and a shareable link.
