FlowCV

FlowCV is a clean, real-time resume and CV builder known for pixel-precise templates and frictionless exports.

Overview

FlowCV focuses on the craft of the document itself. Every edit renders live in a true-to-print preview, sections reorder by drag and drop, and typography controls keep multi-page CVs consistent. AI features assist with wording and summaries without taking over the document. The platform supports resumes, CVs, and simple portfolios, exports to PDF and plain-text formats, and keeps a version history so you can branch a CV per application.

The team behind FlowCV obsesses over typography details most builders ignore: widow and orphan control, consistent vertical rhythm, and true-to-print preview rendering. For academic and European users, its handling of multi-page CVs with publications, teaching, and research sections is a standout.

Key Features

• Real-time pixel-accurate preview while editing
• Drag-and-drop section reordering and custom sections
• AI writing assistant for summaries and bullet polish
• Version history and duplicate-per-application branching
• PDF and plain-text export for ATS-safe submission
• Multi-language interface and document support

The platform’s restraint is its design: no upsells interrupt the editor, and exports respect what the document is for. Version history means you can branch a CV for a specific application and always return to your master copy intact.
