A single lost email cost me $40,000.
After being laid off by email in 2024, I managed 46 interview pipelines from 129 applications. During a 9-interview week, a manual tracking error led to a missed interview—for a role paying $40,000 more than the offers I received.
I built JustAJobApp so this never happens to you.

Privacy is Our Product
For a tool that reads your inbox, trust is everything. We are committed to Radical Transparency.
We Don't Read Your Emails
We use a narrow search query for job-related messages only. If an email isn't from a known hiring platform or doesn't contain keywords like "application received," we ignore it.
Your Data is Not For Sale
We use Google's paid Gemini API, which at the time of writing, contractually forbids them from using your data to train their models. Your data is yours, and it is never monetized.
The Job Search Crisis
2–3× More Applications
Pre-pandemic research found job seekers sent ~12 applications per month. JustAJobApp users send 7–12 per week—over 2× the historical volume.
7,800+ Applications Tracked
That's 7,800+ confirmation emails, status updates, and interview requests our users no longer manage manually.
Spreadsheets Aren't Helping
72% of surveyed job seekers use 3+ different apps to track their search. Moving data between emails, calendars, and spreadsheets manually is where the $40,000 mistakes happen.
What People Are Saying
"I receive so many emails a day that I mistook one for a rejection. Later, I saw a color-coded 'Hiring Freeze' status in JustAJobApp that caught my eye. It prompted me to go back and find the email—it wasn't a rejection, but an invitation to apply for a reopened position. I would have completely missed this opportunity."
"I get to see the entire picture on a single dashboard... and not have to continually update a spreadsheet."
