A job application tracker that fills itself in as you apply
Most trackers ask you to type the same details you already pasted into your resume. JobTailor reads the job description once, tailors your resume, and drops the role into your tracker with company, salary, location, and JD already filled in.
Why most job trackers turn into a second job
The average tracker is a spreadsheet with prettier buttons. You open a job posting, copy the company name, copy the title, guess at the salary, paste the URL, pick a status, then close the tab and forget the whole thing exists two applications later.
The problem isn't the tracker — it's that tracking sits outside the work. You already read the JD to tailor your resume. You already picked the salary bracket that mattered. Making you re-enter all of it is busywork.
JobTailor puts the tracker inside the loop. The extension already parses the job description to tailor your resume and cover letter. The moment you save the role, everything the AI extracted becomes tracker fields. You don't fill in a form — you just keep applying.
How it fills itself in
Four steps, none of which involve copy-pasting salary ranges into a spreadsheet.
- 1Open a job on any of 50+ boards
LinkedIn, Indeed, Wellfound, Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, Ashby — the extension recognizes the posting and pulls the JD.
- 2Tailor the resume in one click
JobTailor rewrites bullets against the JD without inventing experience you don't have. It also drafts a cover letter in the same session.
- 3Save the role to your tracker
Company, title, location, salary range (when the posting shows it), source URL, and the full JD are already there. Status defaults to Applied.
- 4Move it through your pipeline
Update status as things happen — Interview, Offer, Rejected, Ghosted. Your tailored resume and cover letter stay attached to the role, so you can pull them up before a callback.
What lives on every tracked role
Not a wishlist of fields — this is what's actually there when you open a saved job.
Stored with the role so it still exists three weeks later when the posting is taken down and a recruiter finally emails back.
The exact version you sent, versioned by application. No more 'which resume did I use for the Stripe role?'
Drafted in the same tailor session, saved alongside the resume, in authoritative Harvard OCS format.
Pulled from the JD when the posting includes them. You can edit anything the parser guessed wrong.
Applied, Screening, Interview, Offer, Rejected, Ghosted. Sortable so the stale ones surface themselves.
One click back to the original posting — helpful when a recruiter asks 'which role were you applying to?'
The honest tradeoff versus Teal
What the tracker will not do
We'd rather say this up front than have you discover it on day three.
- Auto-submit applications on your behalf. You still hit apply — this is a tailoring and tracking tool, not a bot.
- Scrape jobs you never opened. Roles get tracked when you save them, not from a background crawl.
- Predict whether you'll get the interview. No AI knows that. It'll tell you if a resume matches the JD, not whether the hiring manager will like you.
- Send follow-up emails automatically. It'll remind you to; you write the message.
Free tier is enough to try it end to end
Free gives you 2 tailored resumes, 3 cover letters, and 6 job extractions per month — enough to save a handful of roles into the tracker and see if the workflow fits.
Pro at $2.99/month bumps that to 50 resumes, 100 cover letters, and 200 extractions. Max at $9.99/month is 300 resumes, 200 cover letters, and 1,000 extractions — that's the tier for anyone applying seriously enough that the tracker becomes daily infrastructure.
Frequently asked
What is a job application tracker?
A job application tracker is a tool that keeps every role you've applied to in one place — company, title, status, salary, the JD, and the resume you sent. It replaces the spreadsheet most people abandon after two weeks of applying.
How is JobTailor's tracker different from Teal or Huntr?
Teal and Huntr are standalone trackers you fill in yourself. JobTailor's tracker sits inside the tailoring loop — because the extension already parsed the JD to rewrite your resume, the tracker fields populate automatically the moment you save the role.
Does the tracker auto-apply to jobs for me?
No. JobTailor tailors your resume and cover letter and tracks the applications you send, but you still click apply yourself. Auto-submit bots tend to burn your reputation with recruiters, so we don't ship one.
Which job boards does the tracker work with?
50+ boards including LinkedIn, Indeed, Wellfound, Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, and Ashby. If the extension can read the JD on a site, saving the role tracks it.
Can I keep the JD after the posting is taken down?
Yes. The full job description is stored with the role in your tracker, so you can still reference it weeks later when a recruiter emails you back about a job that no longer exists on LinkedIn.
Does the tracker store the exact resume version I sent?
Yes. Every tailored resume is versioned to the role it was tailored for. When a callback comes in, you open the tracker entry and pull up the same resume the hiring manager saw.
Is there a free plan for the job tracker?
Yes. The Free tier includes 2 tailored resumes, 3 cover letters, and 6 job extractions per month — enough to try the tracker end to end. Pro ($2.99/mo) and Max ($9.99/mo) raise those limits for active job seekers.
Where is my tracker data stored?
In your JobTailor account, backed by Supabase. Only you can see it. Nothing is shared with recruiters, employers, or third parties.
