docs/comparisons/reactive-resume-vs-novoresume.mdx
Novorésumé is the stronger choice when guided design, writing advice, a content library, and its built-in assistant carry most of the drafting. Reactive Resume lets you keep several saved resume versions, without the Basic plan's document and page limits.
| Consideration | Reactive Resume | Novorésumé |
|---|---|---|
| Saved resumes | Manage separate resume versions | Basic permits one document |
| Document length | Use the length your content requires | Basic permits one page; Premium permits longer documents |
| Drafting support | Direct editing and optional AI | Guided design, writing advice, content library, and integrated assistant |
| Exports | PDF, DOCX, Markdown, and JSON | See Novorésumé plan and export options |
Novorésumé's current Basic plan permits exactly one document, capped at one page. Its Premium plan lists 72 documents and documents up to 10 pages. The product also documents templates, a content library, real-time advice, and an integrated assistant.
Reactive Resume keeps resume versions in the dashboard and supports PDF, DOCX, Markdown, and JSON exports. Its source is public under the MIT license, and it runs with Docker.
Choose Novorésumé when its guided design, writing advice, content library, and integrated assistant are worth more to you than managing several versions in one system. Premium also fits when its larger document count and longer documents match what you need.
Pick Reactive Resume to manage several saved resumes and export them as PDF, DOCX, Markdown, or JSON. You can also self-host it; see the Docker guide.
Choose Novorésumé when its guided drafting tools come first and its Basic or Premium document limits fit your workflow. Choose Reactive Resume when you want several resume versions and designed exports without moving to a premium plan.
Reactive Resume has a smaller guidance and content surface. It has no equivalent to Novorésumé's content library and assistant inside a guided drafting workflow.
