Tyler builds the scoring pipeline, the SPA, and most of what runs server-side. He started Elcano after watching capable people get screened out of roles by tools that wouldn't tell them why — or what to fix.
About
We build the resume tool we wish existed when we were applying.
Elcano scores your resume against the role you actually want — explains every number — and tells you, in plain language, what to change. No black-box "match scores." No pay-to-play job boards. Just a clear answer and a next move.

Co-founder
David leads design and product. He shapes how every score on the page is rendered, labelled, and explained — so the answer reads like a coach, not a black box.
Why we’re building this
Most applicant-side tools today either score your resume against a generic role-archetype (no JD context, low value) or hand you an opaque LLM “match score” you can’t verify and can’t act on. Neither tells you whether you’d clear the ATS keyword filter, neither tells you what an AI screener would say, and neither rewrites your resume with citations back to your real evidence.
We started Elcano because that gap is solvable. The deterministic part of the scoring pipeline always works without an LLM, so the answer is reproducible. The LLM layer adds depth, but never breaks the score. And every number on the page is explained in plain language — readiness, ATS pass-probability, per-axis scores, the gap to target — so you can decide whether to trust it.
