Teal
AI resume builder and job tracker that tailors your resume to each job you apply for.
Quick take
- Build one resume, then make a tailored version for each job with a match score and missing keywords.
- The free plan is useful for tracking jobs and building resumes, but AI writing is capped at a few credits.
- Teal+ costs $13 a week, $29 every 30 days or $79 every 90 days, and you can cancel any time.
- AI-written bullets and cover letters are a solid first draft, but you'll want to add your own detail.
What is Teal?
Teal helps you write a better resume and keep your job search organised. You build your resume once, then make a tailored copy for each job. Paste in the job ad and Teal highlights the keywords you're missing, gives your resume a match score, and suggests fixes. Its AI writes bullet points with numbers in them, a professional summary and a cover letter for the role.
The job tracker is the other half. You save jobs from any job board, often with a browser extension, then track where each application is, set goals, keep notes and use email templates for each stage, from follow-ups to thank-you notes. That makes it useful when you're applying for dozens of roles at once.
The catch: the free plan only gives you a handful of AI credits (5 bullet points, 2 summaries and 2 cover letters) and limited keyword matching. Teal+ is billed weekly or monthly rather than yearly, which suits a short job search but costs more if yours drags on.
Who's using it, and who it's for
- Job seekers
- Career changers
- Graduates
