Turn screening call transcripts into branded CVs in 90 seconds
Half your "candidates" come from screening calls — not polished CVs. FormaCV is the only formatter purpose-built for that reality. Paste an Otter, Fireflies, Gong, or Fathom transcript and FormaCV extracts the candidate's experience, skills, and education, then formats it into your agency-branded CV.
No competitor does this.
The recruiter problem we solve
A modern recruitment pipeline doesn't only contain CVs. It contains:
30-minute screening call transcripts (Otter / Fireflies / Gong / Fathom / Read.ai)
LinkedIn profile exports (often outdated)
Email replies with experience pasted into the body
Voice notes from networking events
Internal CRM notes from past conversations
How it works
Step 1
Paste or upload the transcript
Supports Otter, Fireflies, Gong, Fathom, Read.ai, and plain text.
Step 2
FormaCV identifies candidate facts
Name, current role, employer, experience, skills, education, location, salary expectation.
Step 3
Structures into your branded CV
Applies your agency template, anonymizes if needed, exports as DOCX/PDF.
Step 4
Review and send
Review the structured CV inside FormaCV, edit anything, then download or push back to your ATS.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which call transcription tools does FormaCV support?
Otter.ai, Fireflies, Gong, Fathom, Read.ai, Microsoft Teams transcripts, Zoom transcripts, and plain text. If your tool exports text, FormaCV can read it.
How accurate is the extraction?
We benchmark internally at ~92% accuracy on standard recruiter screening calls. You always review and edit before sending — and edits inside FormaCV are saved per candidate.
Does FormaCV transcribe calls itself?
No — we work with the text output from your existing tool. We don't process audio.
What about privacy and consent?
You're responsible for your local consent rules around call recording. FormaCV processes the transcript text under the same GDPR-compliant policy as CVs — see our security page.
Can other CV formatters do this?
To our knowledge, FormaCV is the only recruiter-focused CV formatter that handles screening call transcripts as a first-class input. Other tools require you to have a CV file already.
How does this compare to manually writing up a CV from a call?
Manual write-up averages 25–35 minutes. FormaCV does it in 90 seconds. You still review — but you're editing, not authoring.
