Which Teal alternative fits your job search?

Teal combines a resume builder with a job tracker. That can be exactly right when the resume is your main project.

The trade-off appears when your bottleneck sits elsewhere. You may need faster application forms, automatic job discovery, interview practice, outreach, or one place to carry a role from shortlist to follow-up.

This guide compares those workflows. ApplyArc publishes it, so ApplyArc is included with an explicit disclosure rather than awarded a made-up rank.

Pricing note: Teal's official pricing page returned an access block during our 31 July 2026 check. We have not repeated a Teal price or AI-credit allowance that we could not verify. Check Teal's page directly before paying.

Seven Teal alternatives compared

Prices and features above come from the official sources linked in each section, checked 31 July 2026. ApplyArc prices come from the product's live shared pricing configuration.

ApplyArc: connected tracking after the CV

Price: Free for up to 100 saved jobs and 5 AI generations each month. Pro is £19/month or £45 every 3 months.

ApplyArc is built for people who already have a CV and need to run the search around it. The Kanban board carries a role into job matching, cover letters, company research, interview prep, salary negotiation, and follow-up drafts.

Choose ApplyArc when:

• You want one role record to carry context into writing and interview tools
• You need help beyond resume construction
• £19/month or the £45 three-month plan fits your budget

Choose Teal instead when:

• A template-led resume builder is the centre of your workflow
• Teal's current plan terms fit how often you use its AI
• Its resume and tracker workflow already holds your search

ApplyArc does not provide a template resume builder. Its Chrome extension is also waitlist-only: the first release is a dashboard shortcut, with browser job saving still on the roadmap.

Huntr: browser-led tracking and resume tools

Huntr's official pricing page lists a free plan, $40 monthly billing, and $90 every three months. It also documents job tracking, a Chrome extension, resume building, tailoring, cover letters, and complimentary AI credits on Free.

Choose Huntr when:

• Saving roles from the browser is central to your workflow
• You want resume tools and a tracker from the same vendor
• Its current free allowance or paid billing works for your search

Choose ApplyArc when: you want a verified GBP price and the role to flow into interview, research, salary, and follow-up tools. Compare the actual workflow rather than counting feature labels.

Careerflow: LinkedIn profile work and mock interviews

Careerflow's job tracker and AI mock interview pages document a tracker, LinkedIn profile tools, tailored-resume connections, and role-specific interview practice with feedback.

Careerflow's former pricing URL returned 404 during this review, so this guide does not quote a monthly price.

Choose Careerflow when: your LinkedIn profile and interview practice are the work you need to do next.

Choose ApplyArc when: you want a role-centred board connected to writing, research, salary, and follow-up tools at a verified GBP price.

Jobright: matching and insider connections

Jobright's official product page highlights personalised job matches, application autofill, job-specific tailored resumes, recommended insider connections, and an AI career copilot.

The site invites people to try it free, but we could not verify a current public paid price. That is why no dollar figure appears here.

Choose Jobright when: finding suitable roles and people inside the company matters more than building a detailed manual pipeline.

Choose ApplyArc when: you already know which roles you want and need to manage each application through writing, interviews, and follow-ups.

LoopCV: automated applications

LoopCV's official pricing page describes a free plan, paid plans from €9.99/month, automated matching and applications, and access to an application dashboard.

That is a different operating model from Teal or ApplyArc. Automation can increase volume, but it also gives you less control over which application goes out and what receives your attention.

Choose LoopCV when: auto-apply is an intentional strategy and you are prepared to review its settings, exclusions, and application quality.

Choose ApplyArc when: you prefer to shortlist fewer roles, tailor the work yourself, and keep the pipeline visible.

Simplify: autofill and automatic application tracking

Simplify's Copilot page says the extension autofills application forms, tailors resumes, and automatically records applications submitted with Copilot. The core product is marketed as free.

Simplify also sells Simplify+, which adds paid AI tools for resume tailoring, cover letters, application questions, outreach, and analytics.

Choose Simplify when: repeated application forms are the biggest drain on your time.

Choose ApplyArc when: the tracker and the work after submission matter more than autofill.

Notion, Trello, or Sheets: a manual system

A general-purpose board or spreadsheet gives you control over every field and stage. It also leaves capture, reminders, writing, and reporting to you.

Choose a DIY tracker when: you enjoy maintaining your own system and do not need job-search-specific automation.

Choose a dedicated tracker when: keeping the system updated has become work in itself.

What should you compare before switching?

Ignore a giant feature count. Run one real job through each workflow:

1. Save the role
2. Tailor or review the CV
3. Draft the application
4. Prepare for the interview
5. Record the outcome and follow-up

The best fit is the product that removes your actual bottleneck without hiding a trade-off you care about.
