Dresscode vs DaXtra Styler

DaXtra is a parsing company first. Styler is the formatting layer on top of an estate you are probably already running.

The short version

DaXtra has been doing CV parsing and search for a long time and is very good at it. Styler is the piece that formats to your template, anonymises candidates and adds your branding and cover sheets. If DaXtra is already in your stack, Styler is the obvious thing to add.

If it is not, the calculation changes. Buying into a parsing suite in order to format CVs is a large decision for a fairly small job, and the price is on request, so you cannot even size it without a demo.

Dresscode is the opposite shape. One job, published price, no integration, and you can see the output before you speak to anyone.

Side by side

A module in a suite, against a standalone service.

Questions

Straight answers.

What is a simpler alternative to DaXtra Styler?

Dresscode formats CVs into your agency's house style and emails them back in about a minute, with no integration and no parsing suite behind it. Pricing is published at £99 to £449 a month with unlimited users.

Does Dresscode anonymise CVs?

Not today. If blind shortlisting is a requirement for your clients, DaXtra Styler and several other tools handle it and we would point you at them.

Do we need to change our ATS to use Dresscode?

No. Dresscode runs on email, so it sits alongside whatever you already use and requires no integration work.

Try it on one of your own CVs.

Attach any CV and email it to trial@cvdresscode.com. It comes back cleanly formatted in about a minute, then we delete it. No signup, no card, no call.
