HR & Workforce
Resumes contain work history, education, skills, and contact details in thousands of format variations. No two look alike, but your ATS needs consistent data. Sensible turns resumes into structured JSON for candidate screening, matching, and ATS integration.
Validated JSON
Schema-enforced output; every field matches your contract
Source coordinates
Every value links back to page + bounding box for audit
Per-document pricing
Predictable cost. No token-volatility surprises
Trusted by teams turning documents into production data






Resumes come in endless layouts, with dates, roles, and skills scattered wherever the design puts them. We parse the structure into consistent fields, dates and skills included.
01
Single-column, two-column, sidebar, creative: candidates use every layout imaginable. Section boundaries are identified regardless of visual structure, and contact info, experience, education, and skills all extracted consistently.
02
'Jan 2020 - Present'. '2018 to 2021'. 'Summer 2019'. Candidates express dates in dozens of formats. Sensible normalizes them all and calculates employment duration, giving your ATS structured tenure data.
03
Skills appear as bulleted lists, inline mentions within job descriptions, or dedicated sections with varied formatting. LLM parsing identifies skills regardless of where they appear and returns them as a structured array.

Accuracy depends on document quality and configuration. Most production deployments achieve 95%+ accuracy with proper validation rules and confidence signals.
Processing speed depends on document size, page count, OCR requirements, and which extraction methods are used. Simple single-page documents process in seconds. Larger or more complex documents that use LLM-based extraction take longer.
