Claims are easy.
Exaggeration is harder.

Gram checks résumé claims against public evidence and shows the wording the record actually supports. Your team makes the call.

NewNine guides to checking résumé claims

Reads applications from

  • Airtable
  • Google Forms
  • PDF or PNG upload

Almost nothing on a résumé is false. That is what makes it hard to review.

Led cross-functional product strategy is not a lie. It is a choice of verb. The record behind it might show ownership, or it might show attendance, and the line reads the same either way.

Working through a stack of applications, a reviewer cannot check which. So the wording is taken at face value, or it is discounted on instinct. Both are guesses about a person.

Gram reads every claim on a résumé, checks the ones that look inflated against public evidence, and shows you the wording the record actually supports. Whatever a search returns stays attached to the finding, and the original wording stays beside the new one.

The decision stays with a person.

What hiring teams do with Gram

Solutions1.0

  1. Review a whole stack at once

    Upload résumés, or import a role from an Airtable base or a Google Form. Gram separates every claim and flags the ones worth checking before you open a file.

  2. See the evidence behind a finding

    Each flagged claim is checked against public sources. The finding shows the claim in the applicant’s words, the verdict, the reason, and every source it rests on.

  3. Get the wording the record supports

    Where the record supports less than a claim implies, Gram proposes the wording it does support. The original stays beside it, so you can see exactly what changed.

  4. Keep the applicant in the loop

    Where a report is for employment, each applicant is asked to authorize it first and can decline. They can request a copy, and dispute anything in it.

How Gram works

Method2.0

Four stacked layers: a résumé split into claims, flagged claims fanning out to public sources, an original claim beside its calibrated wording, and the Gram mark where a reviewer decides.
  1. Pass one

    Every line becomes a claim

    Each line of the résumé becomes one claim. The ones whose wording outruns what the line itself establishes are marked in the same pass.

  2. Pass two

    One search per marked claim

    Only those claims are checked against public sources: scholarly indexes, code-hosting sites, company pages. Whatever the search returns stays attached to the finding.

  3. Pass three

    Wording the record supports

    Where the record supports less than the wording implies, Gram proposes the wording it does support. The original stays beside it.

  4. The reviewer

    A person makes the call

    Gram does not certify any claim as true and does not make the hiring decision. The reviewer reads the claim, the evidence and the rewording, and decides.

What a check turns up

Examples3.0

Everyone in the hiring loop reads the same record. Recruiters, hiring managers, compliance and the applicant each see the claim, the evidence behind it, and the wording it supports.

Teams4.0

  • Import a role

    Pull every applicant for a position from an Airtable base or a Google Form, or upload their résumés as PDFs.

  • Say what to check

    Describe what matters for the role in your own words. Gram still reads the whole résumé.

  • Take the record with you

    Download a review as a CSV, or send the results back to Google Sheets or Airtable.

The error we design against

A rewrite that should not have happened costs a real applicant something. A missed one costs a reviewer a second look. Every threshold in Gram is set for the second kind of error.

  • Evidence stays attached

    The material a finding rests on stays visible beside it.

  • Uncertainty stays explicit

    Ambiguity becomes a question, not synthetic certainty.

  • People stay responsible

    Every consequential hiring decision remains human.

Questions before a call

Questions5.0

Longer answers live on the privacy and terms pages.

Is this legal to use for hiring?

Yes, within the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Gram operates as a consumer reporting agency, which means a workspace administrator certifies the purpose of each check, and the applicant authorizes it before a report is run for employment. The obligations that come with that are listed above.

What if it is wrong about someone?

The applicant can dispute anything in a report and it is reinvestigated. Gram does not certify any claim as true and does not make the hiring decision — the reviewer does. Thresholds are set so that a rewrite that should not have happened is the error the system avoids.

What happens to the documents?

They are analyzed to produce the reviewer’s report and stored so the reviewer can return to them, with optional 30-day or 90-day automatic deletion.

Where does it read applications from?

A connected applicant tracking system, a Google Form, or a direct upload. Evidence comes from public sources — scholarly indexes, code-hosting sites, company pages — and whatever a search returns stays attached to the finding.
