LazyApply Alternatives in 2026: 5 Options, From Auto-Apply to Assisted Applying

5 min read

LazyApply sells annual auto-apply plans from $99 to $999 a year. Here are five alternatives, with monthly billing, free plans, or a slower approach that gets more replies.

LazyApply submits job applications for you in bulk. People usually look for an alternative for one of three reasons: the plans are billed yearly, bulk applications rarely get replies, or they're worried about their accounts on job sites. This guide covers options for each.

We make TrackJobs, which is one of the options below. Prices were checked in September 2026.

What LazyApply costs

LazyApply's pricing page lists three annual plans, all shown at a discount from a higher list price:

PlanPrice per yearApplications per dayResume profiles
Basic$99151
Premium$1491505
Ultimate$9991,50020

Every plan is a yearly subscription, and LazyApply advertises a 30-day money-back guarantee. It says it applies on platforms including Greenhouse, Dice, Indeed, and ZipRecruiter.

1. LoopCV: if you still want auto-apply

LoopCV is the closest like-for-like replacement. It finds matching jobs and applies on your behalf. The big difference is billing: LoopCV has a free plan and monthly paid plans starting at €9.99, so you aren't paying for a year of a search that might take three months.

Choose LoopCV if you're committed to auto-applying but don't want an annual subscription.

2. Simplify: fast applying, still in control

Simplify's free Chrome extension autofills application forms on most job sites and applicant tracking systems. You open each job, the form fills in, and you check it and submit.

Choose Simplify if your real goal is to spend less time typing, not to stop looking at the jobs you apply to.

3. TrackJobs: autofill plus a place to track it all

TrackJobs autofills applications from the resume and saved answers you choose. It tracks every application on a kanban board and scores your resume against each job, so you can fix gaps before you apply.

  • Free: 50 tracked jobs, 25 autofills, and 10 resume scores a month.
  • Pro, $6/month: 250 tracked jobs, 250 autofills, 50 resume scores, and 200 AI resume optimizations a month.

Choose TrackJobs if you want to apply faster and still send applications that are tailored to the role. See TrackJobs vs LazyApply for a detailed comparison.

4. Jobright: fewer, better-matched applications

Jobright recommends roles based on your profile and shows how well you match each one. It works on a different problem from auto-apply: picking the right jobs, not applying to the most.

Choose Jobright if you're unsure where to apply and want a shortlist, not a firehose.

5. Huntr: free autofill and tracking

Huntr's free plan includes unlimited autofills and tracking for up to 100 jobs, so it can replace LazyApply's speed at no cost for a moderate search. Pro is $40 a month; see our Huntr pricing breakdown.

Choose Huntr if you want a polished tracker and your search will stay under 100 applications.

Auto-apply vs. autofill

The tools above split into two camps, and the difference matters more than the price.

  • Auto-apply (LazyApply, LoopCV) submits applications without you reviewing each one. You get volume. You also give up control over which roles you apply to and what your answers say.
  • Autofill (Simplify, TrackJobs, Huntr) fills in the form, and you submit it. It's slower per application, but every application is one you chose and checked.

Recruiters see hundreds of applications per role. A tailored resume sent to a role you fit usually does better than many generic ones. That's why most of the options here keep you in the loop.

Is LazyApply safe to use?

There are two risks to weigh, with any auto-apply tool, not just LazyApply.

  1. Your accounts. Some job sites restrict automation in their terms. LinkedIn's User Agreement, for example, prohibits using "bots or other unauthorized automated methods" to access its services. Check the terms of the sites you rely on before running a tool that applies for you.
  2. Your reputation. Auto-applied applications can go to roles that don't fit, with screening answers you didn't write. If the same recruiter sees several of those from you, it's hard to be taken seriously for the role you actually want.

If either risk worries you, an autofill tool gets you most of the time savings without them.
