In simple English

Tracking job applications by hand takes hours and leads to missed interviews. This tool connects to your email inbox and finds confirmation messages from hiring companies. It builds a visual dashboard of your job search without any copy-pasting. You do not need to install browser extensions or fill out spreadsheets. It is free to use on the web or you can run the code yourself.

What it is

An open-source job application tracker (a program that records where you applied and tracks interview stages) that parses confirmation emails from your Gmail account. It uses a narrow search filter to read only hiring messages and displays your pipeline on a web dashboard.

What it is good for

Job seekers who send dozens of applications per week and want to stop updating spreadsheets by hand.

Good
  • Saves hours of manual data entry by reading confirmation emails automatically.
  • Passes a security audit and uses Google-approved OAuth for safe account access.
  • Open-source code allows technical users to self-host the entire application.
Watch for
  • Requires connecting your personal email inbox, which demands a high level of trust.
  • Self-hosting requires setting up Google API credentials and environment variables.
  • Maintained by a single developer, so community pull requests are currently paused.
