Teal genuinely does some things better. We'd rather be honest about it than pretend otherwise.
If your main goal is building and tailoring resumes, Teal's builder is genuinely better. More templates, more formatting options, better ATS optimisation. No contest here.
Teal can fill application forms automatically. ApplyArc doesn't do this. If you're applying to 50+ jobs a week and speed matters most, Teal saves time on forms.
Teal's Chrome extension clips jobs from 40+ sites directly into your tracker. If you browse lots of job boards and want one-click saving, Teal's extension is more fully featured.
But if you want AI that coaches you through your entire job search (not just resume building), ApplyArc's 17 tools and Career Coach go much further. See all comparisons →
