Is the CV builder completely free?

Yes. The Forge CV builder is 100% free — no signup, no watermark and no subscription. You can create and download your resume as PDF, Word or PNG at no cost.

Are the templates ATS-friendly?

All 8 templates use a clean text structure that applicant tracking systems parse reliably: standard section headings, no complex tables and no text trapped inside images. A built-in ATS panel scores your CV instantly and suggests fixes before you apply.

Is the PDF real text or an image?

The PDF export is real vector text, so it stays selectable, searchable and copyable — which is exactly what recruiting systems need to read your resume. You can also export an editable Word (DOCX) file or a high-resolution PNG.

Does it support Arabic and right-to-left layouts?

Yes. Arabic is fully supported with correct RTL direction and professional Arabic typography, alongside English LTR. The CV language is independent from the site language, so you can produce Arabic, English or bilingual resumes.

Which devices does it work on?

It runs in the browser on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS with nothing to install. The live preview adapts to your screen size, and on mobile you can save a PDF straight from the print dialog.

Is my data private and secure?

Your CV data is autosaved in your own browser (local storage) and never uploaded unless you explicitly create a secure review link. That link is secret, time-limited, marked noindex, and can be revoked at any time.

Can I switch templates after filling in my details?

Yes. Pick from 8 professional templates (classic, modern, minimal, creative, executive, tech, corporate, elegant) with a custom accent color. Switching is instant and all of your content carries over — no retyping.

Is there an AI assistant for writing content?

Yes. The AI assistant drafts your professional summary, rewrites duties into strong quantified achievements, suggests role-relevant skills, and matches your CV against a job description to reveal missing keywords.

4.9/5from 1,284 user ratings

First time writing my own CV and it came out genuinely professional. I made Arabic and English versions and downloaded the PDF in under 10 minutes — got my first HR call two days later.
Mennatallah Abdelrahman
Fresh graduate — Cairo
The ATS check was the killer feature. The score showed my summary was weak and my skills missed keywords from the job post — after fixing it I hit 92% match.
Ahmed Samir
Software engineer
I screen CVs daily and these templates are clean and easy to scan without design clutter. I now recommend the tool to candidates whose resumes need structure.
Hoda Mostafa
HR specialist
The AI assistant turned my bullet points into clear, quantified achievements. The Word export lets me tailor the CV per job in minutes.
Mahmoud El Sherif
Sales manager
The creative template gave my CV personality without breaking readability, and the live preview saved me hours. Completely free with no watermark — almost nobody does that.
Sara El Gendy
Graphic designer
I needed an English CV fit for the Gulf market. I used the executive template, exported a searchable text PDF, and the job portal accepted it first try.
