Role-fit radar · no job description required · free to start

Job search is broken.
Fit is invisible.
Elcano fixes both.

You’ve sent 100+ applications and heard back on two. That’s not because you’re bad at your job. It’s because nobody shows you where you actually fit — just a black-box “90 % match” with nothing under it.

Paste your resume. See your shape against 48 real roles. Know exactly where to close the gap — before you send the next application.

idea why

Rejection emails that say nothing. Friends who say “tailor it more.” Every tool you’ve tried hands you one number and moves on. You’re not failing — you’re flying blind.

Why it keeps happening

Recruiters don’t read resumes. They triage shapes.

An ATS + a recruiter decide in under ten seconds. They’re scanning for the specific signal pattern — the shape — each role demands at that seniority. Without knowing your shape, you’re applying blind. And every scoring tool in the category compresses that shape into a single number with no breakdown of what, specifically, needs to change.

How Elcano fixes it

A radar. Not another score.

Three steps. No job description. No pre-selected role. Just your resume and the career question that comes before tailoring.

01

Paste your resume.

No job description needed. No role pre-selected. Elcano figures out your career family and seniority in the first second.

02

See your shape.

A five-dimension radar against 48 real role profiles. Where you're strong. Where you're thin. Where the role is, dimension by dimension.

03

Close the gap.

Specific, resume-grounded tips tied to the exact axes you're behind on. No "consider adding metrics." Actual instructions.

Job search isn’t a volume problem. It’s a positioning problem.

Stop spraying 100 applications. See the 10 where you’re actually competitive — and the exact gap to the next tier up.

What you get that nothing else gives you

Every claim below is something at least seven of the eight competitors we researched cannot credibly make.

A radar — not another number.

Every other tool gives you one score (a "90 % match") with nothing under it. Elcano shows you five dimensions per role, so you know what to work on and what to leave alone.

Scored against 48 real roles.

12 career families × 4 seniority levels. Product Design, Software Engineering, PM, Data Science, Marketing, Sales, Legal, Finance, Healthcare, Ops, HR, Customer Success. Each with targets calibrated to the actual bar.

No job description required.

Elcano answers the question that comes before a JD: "which roles am I actually ready for?" Every other tool makes you paste one first. That's the wrong question when you're still deciding where to aim.

Deterministic. Reproducible.

A deterministic keyword engine floored with an LLM overlay (60/40 blend). Same resume, same score, every time. Competitors that are pure LLM drift run-to-run and hallucinate skills you don't have.

Your resume text is never stored.

Processed in memory. Scored. Discarded. Only the structured radar persists. No logs of resume content, ever.

Built for positioning, not volume.

Stop spraying 100 applications. See the 10 where you're actually competitive — and the exact gap to the next tier up. Target what you can close.

The obvious question

“Why not just ask ChatGPT?”

Because ChatGPT guesses. It invents metrics. It hallucinates skills you didn’t list. It gives you different advice every time you re-prompt. It encourages keyword-stuffing that recruiters now filter out.

Elcano measures. A deterministic engine calibrated against 48 real role profiles, floored under an LLM overlay. Same resume, same answer. A radar you can act on — not a wall of prose you have to fact-check.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a job description to get a score?+
No. That's the point. Elcano scores your resume against 48 real roles across 12 families the moment you paste it. A JD is optional — paste one later for JD-specific axes extracted by LLM. Every other scoring tool in the category requires a JD first, which is the wrong question when you're still deciding which roles to aim at.
Why not just ask ChatGPT?+
ChatGPT guesses. It invents metrics, hallucinates skills you didn't list, and gives you a different answer on every run. Elcano measures — a deterministic scoring engine blended 60/40 with an LLM overlay, calibrated against real role targets. Same resume, same score. A radar you can act on, not a wall of prose you re-prompt.
How are the role targets set?+
Each of the 48 roles has a 5-dimension target profile calibrated from hiring signals — what recruiters and ATS systems actually look for at that seniority, for that family. Scoring combines weighted keyword evidence (deterministic) with an LLM pass that reads the resume in context. Invalid LLM output automatically falls back to the deterministic floor, so the radar always renders.
Is my resume text safe?+
Never stored. Elcano processes your resume in memory, computes the radar + tips, and discards the text. Only structured axis scores persist to your account, protected by Supabase Row Level Security.
What does the $9.99 / month Pro plan include?+
Unlimited analyses, full history, and early access to upcoming AI tools (resume rewrite, cover letter, interview prep — each built on top of your radar). One price. Cancel in one click. No weekly billing, no Paddle, no cancellation maze.
Which career families are supported today?+
Product Design, Software Engineering, Product Management, Data Science, Marketing, Sales, Legal, Finance, Healthcare, Operations, Human Resources, and Customer Success. 48 role levels in total. Each family has 5 role-specific dimensions scored 0–100.
