Huntr

Huntr is a job-search workspace that brings together application tracking, resume tools, contacts and application autofill. It suits job seekers managing multiple applications who want to organize the process across web and mobile. Its main trade-off is the 100-job free-plan cap; Pro removes that limit but costs more than the headline paid-from price might suggest.

Overview

Huntr gives each opportunity a place for job details, notes, dates and tasks, alongside company information, salary, location and the job description. That makes it more useful than a bare application list when a search involves many moving pieces. The contact tracker also keeps recruiter and hiring-manager details, including email, phone and social handles, close to the relevant search workflow.

For organizations placing candidates, Huntr Advisor serves technical academies, colleges, career coaches, outplacement providers and workforce-development organizations. Its API provides organization accounts access to member, job, employer and event information.

Key features

Job tracking and resume tailoring

The tracker captures enough context to make follow-ups and next steps easier to manage. Huntr's resume builder adds professional templates, AI suggestions, proofreading and one-click PDF export. More distinctively, resume tailoring extracts keywords, responsibilities and qualifications from a job description, then scores how closely a resume matches. That gives applicants a way to focus revisions on a specific opening rather than relying on a generic resume.

Applications and mobile

The Chrome extension autofills application forms on thousands of websites, which can reduce repetitive entry across a busy search. Native iOS and Android apps let users browse jobs and organize their search away from a computer; the extension remains the route for autofill. Complimentary AI credits are included on Free, but Huntr does not offer a Pro free trial.

Privacy and services

Huntr says it does not share personal data with third-party organizations or employers without consent and will not sell it. It uses security measures and secured servers, while acknowledging that internet transmission cannot be guaranteed secure. Its third-party services cover functions including authentication, payments, analytics, AI content, hosting and support; Stripe processes payments.

Pricing

Huntr is freemium. Free is always free and includes two job-tailored resumes, two application packets, tracking for up to 100 jobs and up to 100 document uploads. That is a substantial starting allowance, but active searchers who exceed the job cap or need more tailored materials will have to move to Pro.

Pro is shown at $40 per month, billed monthly, with unlimited AI credits, tailored resumes, application packets, job tracking and document uploads; unlimited AI cover letters are also included. The quarterly option is $90 every 3 months, and the biannual option is $160 every 6 months, with the same Pro features. Those longer billing intervals lower the effective monthly cost, but require paying for multiple months at once. The general paid-from price is $26.66/mo, matching the effective monthly cost of the biannual term; it is not the monthly billing price.

Platforms

Huntr supports web, iOS, Android and a browser extension, plus an organization API. The native mobile apps help keep a search organized on the go, while the Chrome extension handles application autofill. The API is aimed at organizational accounts rather than individual job seekers.

Who it's for

Huntr is a strong fit for job seekers juggling a sizable pipeline who want their application records, contacts and tailored documents in one workflow. Free suits a smaller search that stays within 100 tracked jobs and the document and resume limits. Pro makes more sense for sustained, high-volume applications where unlimited tracking and document creation matter. It is less compelling for someone who only needs a resume tool or who wants to try Pro before paying.

Pros and cons

• Pro: Job records hold notes, tasks, dates and employer details, giving users more context than a simple status list.
• Pro: Resume matching, AI writing assistance and one-click PDF export connect job-specific tailoring with document creation.
• Pro: Chrome autofill and native mobile apps support different parts of the search process across devices.
• Con: Free tracking stops at 100 jobs, which can constrain a long or broad search.
• Con: Pro has no free trial, so users must decide without testing its paid features first.
• Con: The $40 monthly option is materially above the $26.66/mo paid-from figure; reaching that effective rate requires a six-month payment.

Verdict

Huntr is best for job seekers who want one organized workspace for applications, contacts, tailored resumes and repetitive form-filling. Its strongest reason to choose is the combination of detailed tracking and job-specific resume support; its clearest reason to look elsewhere is the lack of a Pro trial and the $40 monthly price when the free limits are no longer enough.
