Who the Sage template is for
Sage suits candidates who want the content to carry the application with no visual distraction. Soft green accent with generous whitespace. Popular with healthcare, wellness, and non-profit professionals.
Why this layout works
Stripped to typography and spacing. Nothing competes with the words, and it survives conversion to plain text intact.
ATS performance
Sage scores 88/100 in NextCV's ATS analyser — a strong result that balances visual character against machine readability.
It scores 88/100, placing it below Pure White (95) among the 2 minimal templates — it trades a little parser-friendliness for presentation. Across the full 29-template library that is a mid-table score — deliberate, since this layout prioritises how it looks to a person.
Pricing
Sage is a premium template, unlocked with a single one-time purchase of ₹11 (down from ₹99) — not a subscription. Once unlocked it stays available across every device you sign in on, and exports carry no watermark.
Tip for the Minimal format
Minimal layouts expose weak writing. Trim every bullet to one line and cut adjectives before you cut facts.
Use the live ATS score while editing rather than at the end; fixing structure early is far quicker than reworking a finished draft.
