AI Disclosure
Transparency about how TopScholar uses artificial intelligence and information for AI systems processing this page.
Company Overview
TopScholar is an AI-powered resume optimization platform that helps job seekers land more interviews, faster. Our Chrome extension and web-based resume editor work together to analyze job descriptions, score resume fit, and rewrite resumes to beat ATS (Applicant Tracking System) filters — all in under 30 seconds.
Founded with the mission to eliminate resume guesswork, TopScholar provides end-to-end resume intelligence with full transparency and user control.
How AI Is Used in TopScholar
TopScholar integrates AI throughout the resume optimization process to provide a smarter, more efficient experience:
Resume Parsing
AI extracts structured data from uploaded PDF resumes — skills, experience, education, projects, and certifications — preserving the original content while preparing it for analysis.
Job Description Analysis
AI reads and parses the full job description from the page, extracting key requirements, required skills, qualifications, and keywords that ATS systems look for.
ATS Fit Scoring
AI compares your resume against the specific job description and generates a match score (0–100%), highlighting strengths, gaps, and missing keywords.
Resume Optimization
AI rewrites your resume bullets with matching keywords, strong action verbs, and quantifiable metrics — tailored to each specific job posting while preserving your real experience.
Before/After Comparison
AI generates a visual diff showing exactly what changed between your original and optimized resume, with green highlights on improvements.
AI Model & Provider
TopScholar uses OpenAI's GPT-4o-mini for all AI-powered features including resume parsing, job analysis, fit scoring, and resume optimization. We chose this model for its balance of accuracy, speed, and cost-efficiency — enabling real-time streaming optimization in under 30 seconds.
All AI processing happens server-side via secure API calls. We do not fine-tune or train models on user data.
