The compare page takes the three tools we’re most often weighed against head-on. This page is the longer read — all six job-application tools you’ll meet while shopping, with the honest read on each plus two names worth knowing not to use.
What we built because we did not see it elsewhere. Honest pitch: apply to more jobs, but make every one tailored.
Broadest ATS coverage of any tool. Free tier is genuinely useful. Trade-off: you still click every submit button.
Annual billing, no monthly option — you commit to a full year upfront (Basic $99, Premium $149, Ultimate $999). Trustpilot ~2.4/5 with ~56% one-star; the most-cited complaint is broken CAPTCHAs and applications that look submitted but never land.
500K+ company career pages, the broadest reach of any tool. Billed weekly (Premium ~€8.90/wk, Elite ~€12.90/wk) with no free tier; the "50 applications/day" headline is Elite-only. Worth knowing: server-side automation puts the tool maker on the legal hook for platform ToS, not just the user.
Trustpilot ~4.5/5 — the best reviews in the category. Free tier is 5 jobs/day; paid tiers (Unlimited $34.99, Autopilot $44.99) lift the cap. Quality-focused, narrower platform list. If deep matching over raw volume is your priority, they are excellent.
Strong on ATS autofill (Workday, Greenhouse, Lever). Auto-submit is gated behind a beta. Job database has reports of expired or fake postings — spot-check listings.
The same thirteen questions, asked of all six. Where we wrote “Unknown,” we couldn’t verify the answer from public docs and we won’t guess. If a vendor publishes their own answer we’ll update this table.

A comparison page with no honest losses is a marketing page. These are the three cases a competitor is the right answer for your search — written so you don’t pay us for the wrong tool and refund it next week.
Their free tier is the most generous autofill on the market, and we don’t support those ATS yet. We will.
Their 4.5/5 Trustpilot is genuinely earned. If volume isn’t your bottleneck, paying them more than us is fine.
We don’t auto-apply to Workday yet (multi-month problem — per-company accounts, email verifications, custom forms). If you’re applying mostly to Fortune 500s, look elsewhere for now.
Comparison posts elsewhere on the internet still list these two. One is closed; the other has the kind of charge-but-no-applications report you’d want to know about before paying. We’re not naming them to insult them — just so you know to look closely.
Closed in January 2025. If a comparison post still lists them, it’s out of date. Worth checking the date on any “top auto-apply tools 2026” piece you’re reading.
Multiple public reports of charged accounts that submitted zero applications, very low Scam Detector trust score. We aren’t naming this to insult them — just so you know to look closely before paying. Read recent reviews on more than one site.
It depends on whether you optimize for volume or fit. In 2026 the tools that perform best apply well to the right jobs rather than blasting the most applications — untailored mass applications increasingly get filtered out. LazyApply maximizes raw volume (Easy Apply only); Simplify has the broadest ATS autofill but you click every submit yourself; Wobo is the most-loved for quality at lower volume; JobCopilot has the widest reach via server-side automation. TimeBaQ sits on the tailored, full-auto-submit side: a native desktop app that writes a per-job cover letter, fills full multi-step forms across seven platforms, and keeps your data on your own machine.
They can, and you should assume the risk is real rather than hypothetical. LinkedIn now flags human-impossible velocity — bulk browser extensions running 150+ applications an hour are the most exposed. TimeBaQ lowers that risk with an anti-detection browser stack (Patchright plus fallbacks), human-shaped pacing instead of firing applications as fast as possible, a daily cap you control, and by running on your own machine rather than a shared server IP. No automation is zero-risk.
It submits. Simplify and similar Chrome extensions autofill the form and leave you to click submit on each one. TimeBaQ completes the full application — dropdowns, date pickers, eligibility checkboxes, file uploads, screening questions — and submits it, then logs the result. You can run it in review mode if you want to approve each application first.
Roughly free to about $56/month. Simplify is free (paid AI features around $40/mo); Wobo is $34.99–$44.99/mo; Jobright Turbo is about $39.99/mo; JobCopilot is billed weekly (about $40–$56/mo); LazyApply is annual-only at $99–$999/year. TimeBaQ is free for 25 applications a month, with founder pricing from $9.99/mo (Starter) up to $34.99/mo (Power, unlimited) locked for life for the first 100 customers per tier.
It depends on where the tool stores your data. Most competitors (JobCopilot, Wobo, Jobright) are cloud-hosted, so your resume and search history live on their servers. TimeBaQ is local-first: your resume, profile, work history, and application log stay in a database on your own machine and are never uploaded. AI requests for cover letters are proxied with logging disabled.
Seven: Indeed, LinkedIn, ZipRecruiter, Glassdoor, Dice, Wellfound, and CareerBuilder — with full multi-step form filling, not just LinkedIn Easy Apply or Indeed quick apply. Workday, Greenhouse, and Lever auto-submit are on the post-launch roadmap; today Simplify is the better pick if those ATS are most of your applications.
If TimeBaQ’s the right answer, founder pricing is still open. If it isn’t, the page above tells you which is.
