Applyvo vs Huntr: Which Job Tracker Is Worth It?
Huntr is a genuinely feature-complete tracker — a Kanban board, unlimited contact management, job-tailored resumes, and AI cover letters, all in one place. The catch is price: Huntr Pro is $40 a month, the most expensive tool in this comparison. Applyvo covers the same application-centered workflow, adds recruiter reply drafting, and costs $8 a month.

Honest take
Where each product wins
Huntr — Good at
A dedicated Kanban tracker, unlimited recruiter and contact management, job-tailored resumes with a job-description match score, AI cover letters, and a Chrome job clipper.
Where Applyvo differs
Applyvo adds recruiter reply drafting that Huntr doesn't have, and keeps the same application-centered workflow for $8/month instead of Huntr's $40/month Pro plan.
Who should choose it
Choose Huntr if you want the most feature-complete tracker on the market and price isn't the deciding factor. Choose Applyvo if you want that same connected workflow, plus recruiter replies, for a fraction of the cost.
Switching
Moving your search over
Moving from Huntr means re-entering your active pipeline by hand — there is no import between the two. Start with your highest-priority applications: add each one to Applyvo, paste the job description into the free ATS checker for a match score, then generate a tailored CV and cover letter from there so every new application starts inside the connected workflow instead of a spreadsheet copy.
FAQ
Common questions
Is Huntr better than Applyvo for tracking applications?
Huntr's Kanban tracker is mature and full-featured, and that is a fair reason to pick it. Applyvo's tracker covers the same core job — status, notes, and follow-ups per application — and keeps it attached to ATS checks, CV versions, contacts, and recruiter replies, for $8/month instead of Huntr's $40.
Does Applyvo have contact management like Huntr?
Yes. Applyvo stores recruiter and contact details and ties them to the applications they belong to, the same way Huntr's unlimited free-tier contact management does.
Why is Huntr so much more expensive than Applyvo?
Huntr Pro is $40/month ($30/month billed quarterly, $26.66/month billed twice a year) — the highest price of any tool in this comparison. Applyvo Pro is $8/month with the same core workflow, though Huntr's free tier does allow more tracked jobs (100) than most competitors.
Does Huntr generate recruiter replies?
No feature of that kind appears on Huntr's site. Applyvo drafts reply suggestions to recruiter messages using the same context as the application, contacts, and CV — one of the clearer gaps between the two products.
