Sprout
What Sprout is
Sprout helps job seekers find roles, prepare tailored applications, submit them, and track progress across web, iOS, and Android. It generates role-specific resumes and cover letters, and can fill out and submit applications after review. Listings come from verified company career sites, job boards, and partner networks, with daily refreshes. Search covers industries, locations, and remote, hybrid, or on-site work. Applications receive real-time status updates, while profiles, credits, and progress sync across devices. Gmail can be connected with read-only access to classify job-related messages and update statuses; Sprout says it accesses only application-related messages sent to unique plus-tagged addresses. All listed plans include the same features but different allowances: Weekly is $19.99 a month for 50 applications per week, Monthly is $39.99 a month for 200 monthly, and Quarterly is $79.99 a month for 600 every three months. There is no free plan.
