    What you can do on your own with Formatix

    Six things your team can do in Formatix by itself.

    • Build your own templates and prompts

      Turn your own Word, PowerPoint or Excel file into a template, or design one in Studio. You can read and edit the extraction prompt, the rules for what goes into each field. There is no waiting for a vendor's team to build it, and you can have as many templates as you need (up to 200 per account).

    • Word, PowerPoint, Excel and PDF

      Fill your own templates as Word profiles, PowerPoint shortlist decks, Excel trackers or PDF.

    • Work inside your AI assistant

      Format CVs, build templates and make shortlist decks from inside ChatGPT, Claude (claude.ai, Claude Desktop and Claude Code) and other AI assistants that support connectors. Microsoft 365 (an Outlook add-in and a Copilot agent) is in early access on request.

    • Free in ChatGPT, Claude and other AI assistants that support connectors

      5 CVs a month are free when the assistant reads the CV itself and fills your own template, with a confirmed company email and no card.

    • Free trial

      10 free CVs when you sign up, with no card. Trial credits are valid for 14 days.

    • Public prices, no sales call
