JobTracker jobs table with pipeline stages and status

Everything you need to run a job search — and nothing that phones home.

Built for people who want to organize their search without handing it to a cloud service.

Your data, your machine

Everything lives in a single local SQLite file. No cloud, no telemetry — your data never leaves your machine. Pro activates once online, then runs offline; or self-host the web version.

Pipelines that fit your search

Define your own interview stages and track every application through them — with full stage history so you can see how each one progressed.

Contacts & meetings

Keep recruiters and interviewers per job, schedule calls, and see every upcoming meeting across all your applications in one view.

A dashboard that tells the truth

KPIs, status breakdown, a stage funnel, and average time spent per stage — so you know where your search actually stands.

Self-host anywhere

Docker, docker-compose, or Kubernetes (manifest included). Or grab the native desktop build for Linux, Windows, and macOS.

Yours to keep

Open source under AGPL-3.0. Export everything to CSV any time. No lock-in, no subscription holding your history hostage.

Questions

Is my data really private?+

Yes. JobTracker stores everything in a single local SQLite file. The desktop app has no account and no inbound network listener, and none of your data is ever sent to us; the self-hosted web version runs on your own server. Pro license activation makes a single online check with our payment provider (Polar) to verify your key, after which it works offline.

Does JobTracker Pro need an internet connection?+

Only once. Pro verifies your license with our payment provider on first activation; after that it works offline. Your job-search data always stays on your machine.

What is open source, and what is paid?+

The full tracker (Community) is open source under AGPL-3.0 and free forever. Pro is a paid add-on with power features — a browser clipper, calendar reminders, local résumé↔job match scoring, advanced analytics, and a document vault.

Why one-time pricing instead of a subscription?+

A job search lasts weeks, not years. Paying once for a tool you own beats renting one you have to remember to cancel. Cloud trackers charge $29–$40 every month; Pro is a single purchase.

What does "pre-order" mean here?+

Pro is in active development. Pre-ordering at the founder price locks in early access and helps decide what to build first. It is fully refundable — if it is not for you, just ask.

Which platforms are supported?+

Native desktop apps for Linux, Windows, and macOS, plus a self-hostable web app via Docker, docker-compose, or Kubernetes.

Can I try it first?+

Absolutely — the Community edition is free on GitHub, and there is a live demo you can poke at right now.
