What is SmartShield

From the Chrome Web Store

A research assist tool for recruiters. Surfaces information from public sources and AI-assisted analysis to support resume review. SmartShield is a research assist tool for recruiters. It reads resume PDFs wherever you already work — your ATS, inbox, or any browser tab — and researches the claims against public sources: employers, education, LinkedIn, cross-source consistency, and AI-written-text signals.

WHAT YOU GET

  • A trust score (0–100) that shows its own arithmetic — every deducted point

is explained, category by category, with a fixed cap per category.

  • Coverage — how much of the resume could actually be checked, so you know

what the score is based on. Below 40% a scan is marked "Unverified".

Show the rest of the store description▾
  • Findings anchored to the exact text on the resume. Click a finding, see

the claim highlighted on the document.

  • Review workflow — accept or dispute each finding right in the viewer.

Disputed findings visibly retire; your verdicts sync to the dashboard.

  • Share a read-only report link or export a polished PDF.
  • Works on scanned resumes (OCR), Word documents, plain text, and images.

FITS HOW YOU WORK

  • Scan This Page works on any tab — LinkedIn profiles, Google Docs, ATS

candidate views.

  • Upload or drag-and-drop files straight into the viewer.
  • Light and dark themes (dark by default), keyboard shortcuts (Alt+Shift+S

scans the current tab), resizable findings panel, adjustable text size.

  • Free tier: 10 guest scans, no account needed. Connect a free Cadient

account to keep history, review findings, and share reports.

WHAT SMARTSHIELD IS NOT

SmartShield surfaces research signals from public sources and AI-assisted analysis to support human review. It is not a background check, not a consumer report, and never makes hiring decisions. Findings can be inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated — independent verification is required before relying on any of them. Decisions about candidates always remain with you.

Privacy: resume text is processed to produce your report and then redacted from our systems. See https://cadient.ai/smart-shield/privacy

## What's new (release notes)

**2.0 — review, explain, and theme**

  • Review findings without leaving the viewer — accept ✓ or dispute ✗ each

one; verdicts sync to your dashboard.

  • The findings panel now opens with a score dial, risk tier, coverage, and a

plain-language summary of what drove the score.

  • "Why this score" shows tier gates and per-finding point impact, plus a

per-category coverage breakdown and a built-in glossary.

  • Share a 7-day read-only report link or grab the PDF from the viewer.
  • Light theme — toggle in the toolbar, or set a default in Options.
  • Keyboard shortcuts: Alt+Shift+S scans the current tab; j/k walk findings;

arrow keys turn pages.

  • Filter findings by status; the popup now lists your recent scans.
  • New Options page: theme, layout reset.
  • Refreshed visual design across the viewer and popup, matching the Cadient

dashboard, with improved colour contrast throughout.

  • Faster on long PDFs (pages render as you scroll) and a tighter content

security policy.
