"Safe Computing chose to closely partner with Sovren and integrate the technology into the heart of our solutions. The key reason was that the technology was very compatible with our own, being Microsoft.NET based. The integration was very easy to achieve and the speed of the processing is excellent, which is one of the key factors to end users of our products. Also, the support and commercial flexibility that our relationship gets is first class."

The Sovren Resume/CV Parser is a set of .NET assemblies with a simple application programming interface (API). The Parser extracts more kinds of data, and provides more comprehensive metadata analysis, than any other product. Sovren’s software enables you to customize the parser at runtime, per transaction, so you can use different sets of rules based on the client, job, location, culture or country that the specific application requires.
The Sovren Resume and CV Parser was also the first product to be certified as compliant with the most widely used open standard: HR-XML.org's Resume schema.
Regardless of how a resume is laid out, our parser identifies and extracts relevant information accurately providing your ATS, HRIS or database with the most detailed data possible.
You can configure the software on a per-transaction basis to do exactly what you need it to do, using the data you need it to use, and providing the output in the format you want to receive it.
Sovren provides zero-code integration solutions as sample applications with full source code. That means your installation might be as simple as double clicking an icon to run the parser on your system. For most customers, these solutions serve as great jumpstarts to their custom development.
The Sovren Resume/CV Parser handles the single highest daily parsing load for a resume-consuming entity. The top three largest online and offline resume/CV consuming entities in the world all use the Sovren Resume/CV parser. No other solution has been proven to handle the loads that Sovren handles.
Sovren software does not crash, hang, leak memory, or otherwise stop working or require special monitoring.
Sovren’s parser currently understands English, French, Dutch, Spanish, German, Greek, and Swedish, including variants and dialects. More languages are being added. The SME also understands these languages, although some languages currently require that you furnish your own skills taxonomies in order for the matching to work well.
That’s right. We believe that charging per-resume fees discourages parsing larger candidate pools. And why would we want to prevent you from finding the best candidate possible?
