JobSuite - Job Application Tracker

3 min read
tl;dr: A clean, focused job application tracking tool for job seekers and freelancers to stay organized and land their next opportunity.
The Problem I Wanted to Solve
Job hunting is stressful enough without the chaos of managing applications across spreadsheets, notes, and random browser tabs. I’ve been there — losing track of which companies I applied to, forgetting to follow up, and scrambling before interviews because I couldn’t find my notes.
Most tools out there are either too simple (just a list) or way too complicated (enterprise recruitment software). I wanted something in between — simple structure, real clarity, no distractions.
So I built JobSuite.
What JobSuite Does
JobSuite is a job application tracking tool designed for people who want to stay organized without the overhead. Here’s what it helps with:
📋 Track Job Applications
Keep all your applications in one clean dashboard. No more scattered spreadsheets or messy note apps. Just a clear view of where things stand.
✍️ Smart Cover Letter Generation
Generate tailored cover letters for each role in seconds using AI. It’s not about replacing your voice — it’s about giving you a solid starting point.
🎯 Interview Preparation
Get personalized interview guides for the roles you apply to. Walk into interviews feeling prepared, not panicked.
Who It’s Built For
- Job seekers looking for their next role
- Career changers exploring new opportunities
- Freelancers managing multiple applications
- Anyone tired of messy spreadsheets
If you’re managing your own applications or freelance opportunities, this tool is for you.
The Tech Behind It
Built with a modern stack focused on speed and reliability:
- Supabase for authentication and database
- Google Sign-In for seamless onboarding
- OpenRouter for AI content generation
- Cloudflare for security and bot protection
- Polar for payment processing
- Fly.io for hosting
Security was a priority — all data is encrypted in transit (HTTPS) and at rest via Supabase.
The Business Model
I kept it simple:
- Free to start — new users get 10 free credits, no credit card required
- Pay as you go — when credits run out, purchase more anytime
- No subscriptions — just buy what you need
Credits are used for AI features like cover letter generation, interview guides, and professional avatars.
What I Learned Building This
- Focus beats features — It’s tempting to add everything, but the best products do a few things really well
- Solve your own problem — Building something you’d actually use makes every decision clearer
- Ship early — Getting it in front of real users taught me more than months of planning
