We did not sign up for or use the other tools here: what follows is read from their own public pages on the dates shown, with stated facts kept apart from marketing claims. How we review.
Jobapplier: read on 2026-10-31 from its public pages and public plans API on jobapplier.co, signed out, and from its code. The signed-in features are described from the code and its documentation, not from a hands-on run, and no application was sent for this site.
How we ordered this list
- What the free plan keeps doing for you: exports, tracked jobs and keyword checks, with the limits as each tool states them.
- How jobs reach the tracker, and what sits beside each job once it is there.
- What the AI may change in a resume, and whether you approve each change.
- The paid price and the stated terms for leaving: renewal, cancellation and refunds.
- What each tool's own pages leave unclear or contradict.

Why people look past Teal
Teal is a resume builder and job tracker in one account, with unlimited PDF exports on its free plan. The reasons to compare it come from its own pages: no Word export was found, the full keyword list and the match score are Teal+ features, the free AI credits do not renew, and its refund and renewal terms could not be read when we checked. Teal’s pages refused automated reading on 31 October 2026, so its lines here are from 30 October.
How the list is ordered
The order follows the criteria above, in that order of weight. It starts from the reason you are leaving: the tracker, the file format or the match score. None of these tools was used for this page; every line comes from its own pages.
If the tracker is why you use Teal
Huntr is built around the board. Each job holds notes, dates, tasks and salaries, contacts sit beside them, a map shows where the companies are, and the phone apps save jobs on the go. The trade is price and certainty: Pro costs more a month than Teal+, there is no trial, and refunds are at Huntr’s discretion.
Jobscan’s tracker is free and puts a match rate on every card, which suits you if you scan each posting anyway. Kickresume’s free tracker links each application to the resume and cover letter you sent.
Jobapplier’s Tracker board has no limit on any plan, and each job in its own listings carries a 0 to 100 score with a one-line reason. Its pages do not say that you can save jobs from other boards into it, so it suits you only if you search from its listings.
If you need Word files
Kickresume downloads PDF or DOCX with no download cap on the free plan, and its tailoring reports each change it made. Huntr exports saved versions as PDF or DOCX. Rezi adds DOCX on Pro.
If the match score is the point
Teal keeps the match score behind Teal+. Jobscan gives 5 scans a month free with the match rate and the gaps, and names the employer’s applicant tracking system. Enhancv’s checker runs 27 checks, but its free plan lasts only 7 days. Each score is the vendor’s own model of a good match; none of their pages shows how it relates to an employer’s decision.
Before you switch
Check the terms for leaving, not only the price. Kickresume’s money-back guarantee applies once per user. Enhancv does not refund a used monthly plan. Huntr’s refunds are discretionary, and Jobscan’s must be asked for within 2 days of a billing period. Jobapplier refunds any Pro payment in full within 7 days. Read them on each tool’s page before you pay.

| Auto apply | Its pages do not say | Its pages do not say | Its pages do not say | Auto Apply matches the user with jobs from Greenhouse, Lever, Workable and other ATS platforms and fills details from the resume and profile. [source] | The Agent applies only to jobs that fit one of the person's Apply rules and none of their Skip rules, on the single-page forms of eleven systems: Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workable, Recruitee, Rippling, Breezy, Teamtailor, Pinpoint, BambooHR and Personio. [source] A new account starts with one Skip rule (scores below 70) and no Apply rule, so nothing is sent until the person writes one. [source] | Its pages do not say | Its pages do not say |
| Autofill | Its pages do not say | The resume tailor page lists the extension's autofill as covering 9 ATS platforms, without naming them. [source] The Chrome Web Store listing (Huntr LLC, version 2.0.45, updated April 28, 2026) says the extension autofills application forms from the Huntr profile, works on thousands of sites and names Greenhouse and Lever. [source] The autofill page names LinkedIn, Indeed and employer websites; where a field does not fill, the user adds the detail. [source] | Its pages do not say | Its pages do not say | The Chrome extension fills forms on Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday (multipage), iCIMS, SmartRecruiters and many other career sites; every AI-written answer is marked. [source] | Its pages do not say | The Chrome extension autofills applications on ATS platforms including Workday, Greenhouse and Lever, and the user presses Submit. [source] The extension's autofill is free. [source] |
| Who presses Submit | Teal's help centre says it does not submit applications for the user. [source] The user exports the resume from Teal and uploads it to the employer's application. [source] | The Chrome listing describes the user submitting applications with its one-click quick apply. [source] | Its pages do not say | Every Auto Apply application is reviewed by the user, and the user presses Submit. [source] | In the extension the person presses Submit, the panel's Submit Application or the form's own; the extension never submits by itself and waits while a required field is empty. [source] Before the Agent presses Submit it takes a picture of the filled form; Review shows each question with the answer that went. [source] | Its pages do not say | Its app page says the user stays in control of what is submitted. [source] |
| Where jobs come from | Its job search lists jobs that it says come straight from company applicant tracking systems. [source] | Jobs are saved by the user from other sites with the Chrome Job Clipper; Huntr does not describe finding jobs itself. [source] | Its pages do not say | Jobscan's job search jobs come from Indeed's API. [source] | Jobs are read every hour from employers' career pages on Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday and other applicant tracking systems, and LinkedIn postings are read with no account, only those whose Apply button leads to the employer's own site. [source] | Its pages do not say | Its pages do not say |
Teal+ includes a LinkedIn profile analysis. [source] | Its pages do not say | Its pages do not say | A LinkedIn optimization tool checks the profile against job postings; the page says full access often requires payment.

| Limits and caps | The free plan has a fixed number of AI generation credits that do not renew. [source] | Its pages do not say | Its pages do not say | Auto Apply spends one credit a job; Premium users are topped up to 2 credits each month. [source] | A CAPTCHA or an emailed code stops the Agent's application and hands it to the person; Jobapplier does not solve CAPTCHAs or read email. [source] The Agent sends up to 30 applications a day on Pro. [source] | Pro includes 300 resumes and cover letters, the ATS check, real-time content suggestions, no branding and unlimited section items. [source] | Its pages do not say |
| Browsers and extension | Its Chrome extension saves jobs from more than 40 job boards into the tracker. [source] The Chrome Web Store listing, by Teal Labs, Inc, describes saving and finding jobs, contacts, companies and resumes in one place; version 4.0.8, updated June 26, 2025. The listing does not mention autofill or pricing. [source] | Its pages do not say | A Chrome extension by kickresume-publisher generates a cover letter for an open job post; version 1.1.0, updated January 17, 2024. [source] | The Chrome extension (Jobscan, version 2.2.11, updated October 12, 2026) saves jobs from boards such as Indeed, LinkedIn and Glassdoor to the tracker and scans the resume against a listing; it does not mention autofill.

| Resume tailoring | AI rewrites the summary and bullet points with the wording of the job description. [source] Auto-Select picks the work experience items most relevant to the job, which the user then turns on. [source] | The resume tailor rewrites bullet points, maps skills to keywords and scores the match in real time, explaining each change. [source] Its FAQ says the tailor cannot invent titles, numbers or skills. [source] | Resume tailoring rewrites the CV for a pasted job post at a chosen level (Conservative, Balanced, Turbo) and reports each change; the free plan gets one use. [source] Its page says the AI works only with information already in the resume. [source] | AI Optimize suggests skills and alternative bullet points for a job description; each suggestion is accepted or rejected by the user. [source] AI Optimize is part of Premium. [source] | One resume per posting at a level the person picks: Off (the default), Light, Balanced or Aggressive. No level adds or changes an employer, job title, seniority, date, place of work, school, degree, certification or work authorization. The file is a one-column PDF named Resume.pdf. [source] No .docx export: the resume is a PDF. [source] | One-click tailoring suggests job-specific edits that the person accepts or rejects. [source] | Pasting a job description shows the keywords the resume is missing. [source] |
| ATS check and match score | Teal+ shows every keyword of the job description and a match score of the resume against the role. [source] | The match score combines keyword, qualifications and responsibilities matching, and rates coverage as poor, fair or great.

[source] | Every scan returns a Match Report with a match rate out of 100 for the job and the gaps found. [source] The Match Report and the initial match rate are free.

[source] | A cover letter builder with templates matching the resumes, and an AI cover letter writer. [source] | The cover letter generator is free during the 7-day trial and afterwards part of Premium; an account is required.

[source] | iOS and Android apps build resumes and cover letters, with free unlimited PDF or DOCX export. [source] | Its pages do not say | No phone app in an app store today: the web app runs in a browser, the extension in Chrome on a computer. [source] | Its pages do not say | A job-search app on the App Store and Google Play shows jobs from company career pages, each scored 0 to 100 against the saved resume, with a daily swipe limit on the free app; Pro adds more swipes and AI tailoring. [source] |
| Trial | The pricing page says no credit card is needed to start. [source] | There is no free trial; the free plan includes a few AI credits. [source] | There is no separate trial; Kickresume is free while no paid customization option is chosen. [source] | A 7-day free trial comes with the quarterly plan.

[source] Quarterly and biannual plans are refunded pro rata by usage; monthly refunds depend on purchase date and usage.
