Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before you upload.
How is CVTracker a Teal alternative?
CVTracker covers the same core job-search workflow: store CV versions, track applications by status, and check ATS-readiness — all on the free tier.
What does Pro add on top?
Pro ($12/mo) adds resume tailoring per job description using Claude Haiku 4.5, unlimited saved analyses, and priority support. The ATS checker and tracker stay free.
Why is CVTracker cheaper?
Smaller scope, no large marketing team, no investor pressure. We focus on the ATS + tracker workflow and avoid feature bloat.
Can I import my data from Teal?
There is no automated importer. You can upload your CV PDFs to the CV library and re-create your job pipeline in the tracker — most people do this in under 15 minutes for active applications only.
Is CVTracker really self-hosted?
Yes. The full stack (Next.js + FastAPI + Postgres) runs on a single docker-compose. Your data stays on infrastructure you control.
Will my data ever be used to train AI?
No. Your CVs and application data are not used to train any model. Tailoring requests pass through Anthropic with Claude’s standard no-training policy.
