Not to be confused with jobstracker.org. This JobsTracker is described as an AI-powered tracker, and when we checked it, its site was offline.
Looking for the local-first browser tracker at jobstracker.org? See HireWire vs JobsTracker (jobstracker.org).
What we could verify
- JobsTracker’s Product Hunt listing describes it as “an AI-powered job applications tracker” that “scrapes job postings, extracts key details with AI, and streamlines your path to your next role”. It is listed as Free and launched in 2026. The listing links to jobstracker.app.
- On 2026-10-14, jobstracker.app returned an HTTP 402 page reading “JobsTracker is currently unavailable”. The page identifies it as an app built on the Base44 platform.

The real trade-off: AI extraction vs local-only
An AI tracker that scrapes postings for you saves typing. To do that, the posting (and often your account data) passes through the vendor’s servers and an AI model provider. A local-first tool like HireWire doesn’t send your profile or pipeline anywhere. The trade-off is that it only tracks postings from its feeds and has no manual entry.
Before you put a job search into any hosted tracker, ask three questions. Can I export everything? Is an account required, and can I delete it? Which third parties process what I paste in? Our guide to free job tracker safety covers what to check.
If JobsTracker (jobstracker.app) was your tracker
If the app is offline and you can still reach an export, save it as CSV or JSON now. HireWire can’t import another tracker’s file directly. A spreadsheet is the safest home for that history. See job tracker vs spreadsheet.
