Resume editor that never makes things up
Paste your resume and the job. Diogenes rewrites your lines to fit it, and never adds a number, employer, title or skill you didn't give it.

What it does
Most AI resume tools invent. They add skills you don't have and numbers you never measured, and then you have to defend them in the interview. Diogenes is an editor, not a builder: it starts from the resume you already wrote and sharpens it. It cuts buzzwords, tightens bullets, puts the strongest material first, and, if you paste a job, mirrors that job's wording only where your resume already backs it up.
How it keeps from making things up
- Blanks, not guesses. Where a number would help and your resume doesn't have one, you get a yellow blank to fill in or delete. The download stays locked until every blank is dealt with, so a placeholder can never ship in your resume.
- “Add only if true.” Skills the job asks for that your resume doesn't show are listed separately. Nothing is added unless you tick it.
- A second check in code. After the AI answers, any number, year, employer, title or tool that isn't in your original is turned back into a blank.
- You decide every line. Before and after side by side, with Accept, Reject or Edit on each one.

The blank is yours to fill in. If you don't have the number, delete it and the line still reads well.

Resume editor FAQ
Will it make things up?
It's built not to. Diogenes only rewrites what's already in your resume. Where a line would be stronger with a number you didn't give, it leaves a highlighted blank for you to fill in or delete, never a made-up figure.
A second check in code compares the result with your original. Any number, year, employer, title, tool or skill that isn't in your resume (or something you typed in) is turned into a blank. A skill the job asks for that your resume doesn't show is never added: it goes on an "add only if true" list for you to tick.
It's still AI, so read every line before you send it. You can accept, reject or edit each one.
Does it work in Russian?
Yes. It keeps your resume's language: a Russian resume comes back in Russian, and it never translates it. The screens around it are in English for now.
Версия на русском →What file do I get?
A PDF or a Word (.docx) file, built in your browser, in one of three templates: Classic, Modern or Compact. All three are a single column with real, selectable text and standard headings. The download unlocks once every blank is filled in or removed.
What does it cost?
2 credits per edit. You get 3 free credits when you sign up, and credits never expire. You're charged only when an edit passes the check, so a failed run costs nothing.

Costs 2 credits and only if the edit passes the check. Not sure the job is worth the effort? Check that first: it's free.
Full disclosure: we make Diogenes, so weigh our view with that in mind. See how it compares with other kinds of tool on the comparison page.
