Salvo vs Huntr

The short version

Huntr and Salvo both help with a job search, and they split the work in different places. Huntr tracks your jobs and contacts, tailors resumes, and autofills application forms. You open each form, check the fields, and click submit.

Salvo does the submitting. It finds jobs that fit your written rules, rewrites your resume for each job, applies for you, and preps you for each interview. A submission receipt is saved for every application.

So the question is how much of the clicking you want to keep. Autofill cuts the typing but leaves the clicking with you. Salvo takes both. Go through how Salvo applies, or start free if you'd like to see it work.

Side by side

The Huntr column comes only from its pricing page and home page. Where those pages say nothing, the table says "not stated on their site".

What Huntr does well

Huntr gives a lot away on its free plan. Autofill and the Chrome clipper are included at $0, which many trackers hold back. You also get unlimited base resumes and room to track up to 100 jobs.

Other strengths from its site:

• A tracker with contacts and a map view.
• AI resume tailoring with keyword matching and a score.
• On Pro, unlimited AI cover letters and resume feedback.
• A 4.9 rating on the extension store, as its site shows it.

It's a good home for a search you run by hand. You keep every application in view, and nothing goes out without your click. Some people want exactly that, especially for a short list of jobs they care about.

What Salvo does differently

Autofill still leaves you at the form. Salvo goes past it and submits the application itself, so the forms you'd have filled and sent are done for you.

You write the rules: titles, pay, places, and what you won't take. Salvo checks jobs against them, rewrites your resume for each job, and applies. After each send there's a receipt, so you can see what went out and when.

Each user gets their own Salvo applicant email, and Salvo says it does not sell your data. The security page has the details.

One honest limit. Salvo submits itself on Greenhouse, Workable and Ashby today. More job sites are being added, and we won't claim any before they work. If your target jobs sit elsewhere, Huntr's autofill on 1000s of sites reaches further for now, though you do the submitting.

On interview prep, Salvo preps you for each interview. Huntr shows an interview tracker, with no practice or question features on its site.

On 2026-10-05 Salvo's public stats page showed 200 interview requests logged, 233,244 jobs in inventory and 11 platforms. The source is the home stats API. Salvo publishes no application counts, so we're giving none.

Cost, plainly

Huntr's free plan is a full plan you can use for as long as you like. The two job-tailored resumes and two application packets are its limit, and Pro at $40 a month or less lifts it.

Salvo is free to start with no card, and your first 2 interview requests are free. After that, Turbo keeps replies unlocked at $14 weekly, $39 monthly, $89 every 3 months or $299 yearly. You get 7 days free to try, a card is required for the trial, and you cancel in one click. See the Turbo page.

The two charge for different things. Huntr's Pro pays for unlimited tailoring and packets. Salvo's Turbo pays for keeping replies open once interviews come in. Someone who never gets an interview request pays Salvo nothing.

Using both

A tracker and an auto-apply app don't compete for the same hour of your week. Huntr can hold your contacts, notes and the jobs you chase yourself. Salvo can send the larger batch of applications in the background. Plenty of people run both, and neither blocks the other.

For other pairings, the alternatives index has more comparisons.

Who each one suits

Pick Huntr if you want a free tracker with autofill and you like to apply and control each application by hand.

Pick Salvo if you want applications sent for you, each with a tailored resume and a receipt. Start free here, no card needed.
