About SmartShield — AI-Assisted Resume Research

SmartShield is a research assist tool for recruiters. It reads resume PDFs wherever you already work — your ATS, inbox, or any browser tab — and researches the claims against public sources: employers, education, LinkedIn, cross-source consistency, and AI-written-text signals. WHAT YOU GET • A trust score (0–100) that shows its own arithmetic — every deducted point is explained, category by category, with a fixed cap per category. • Coverage — how much of the resume could actually be checked, so you know what the score is based on. Below 40% a scan is marked "Unverified". • Findings anchored to the exact text on the resume. Click a finding, see the claim highlighted on the document. • Review workflow — accept or dispute each finding right in the viewer. Disputed findings visibly retire; your verdicts sync to the dashboard. • Share a read-only report link or export a polished PDF. • Works on scanned resumes (OCR), Word documents, plain text, and images. FITS HOW YOU WORK • Scan This Page works on any tab — LinkedIn profiles, Google Docs, ATS candidate views. • Upload or drag-and-drop files straight into the viewer. • Light and dark themes (dark by default), keyboard shortcuts (Alt+Shift+S scans the current tab), resizable findings panel, adjustable text size. • Free tier: 10 guest scans, no account needed. Connect a free Cadient account to keep history, review findings, and share reports. WHAT SMARTSHIELD IS NOT SmartShield surfaces research signals from public sources and AI-assisted analysis to support human review. It is not a background check, not a consumer report, and never makes hiring decisions. Findings can be inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated — independent verification is required before relying on any of them. Decisions about candidates always remain with you. Privacy: resume text is processed to produce your report and then redacted from our systems. See https://cadient.ai/smart-shield/privacy --- ## What's new (release notes) **2.0 — review, explain, and theme** • Review findings without leaving the viewer — accept ✓ or dispute ✗ each one; verdicts sync to your dashboard. • The findings panel now opens with a score dial, risk tier, coverage, and a plain-language summary of what drove the score. • "Why this score" shows tier gates and per-finding point impact, plus a per-category coverage breakdown and a built-in glossary. • Share a 7-day read-only report link or grab the PDF from the viewer. • Light theme — toggle in the toolbar, or set a default in Options. • Keyboard shortcuts: Alt+Shift+S scans the current tab; j/k walk findings; arrow keys turn pages. • Filter findings by status; the popup now lists your recent scans. • New Options page: theme, layout reset. • Refreshed visual design across the viewer and popup, matching the Cadient dashboard, with improved colour contrast throughout. • Faster on long PDFs (pages render as you scroll) and a tighter content security policy.
