Teal is especially strong around resume creation, job matching, and job tracking. Teal does support interview practice in its help docs, but its public site still leads most heavily with resume and tracker positioning.

Hey Vitae is positioned around the whole search instead of primarily around the resume. The differentiation lives in the connected layers around each role — recruiter email threading via a personal alias, networking and referrals in the same pipeline as jobs, follow-up reminders, stage-aware prep, and Spotlight pages for when you want a stronger candidate presence than a PDF.

If your search is mostly tracking and resume tailoring, Teal is a credible option. If you want one workspace for the roles, people, documents, prep, email, follow-through, and what is actually working, Hey Vitae is built for that.

Built for candidate momentum

Less setup, clearer next steps.

Hey Vitae is intentionally organized around the parts of the search candidates actually have to manage: roles, stages, prep, documents, follow-ups, and outcomes. Instead of asking you to build your own system or endlessly rewrite materials, it gives each job a clearer next step.

  • See which jobs need attention
  • Prep from the role you’re actually interviewing for
  • Keep notes, docs, reminders, and outcomes connected

See it for yourself.

Common questions

  • What is Hey Vitae?

    Hey Vitae is a job-search workspace for candidates. It helps you track every role you're interested in, prep for interviews around the actual job, manage follow-ups, organize resumes and notes, and see what's actually moving — without turning your search into spreadsheet chaos.

  • Is Hey Vitae just a resume tool?

    No. Resume and cover letter versioning is part of the workspace, but the main product is the full job-search system: tracking, interview prep, follow-ups, documents, email, Spotlight pages, and insights. Companies have ATS. Recruiters have CRM. Hey Vitae is the candidate-side system.

  • Can I bring my Teal data into Hey Vitae?

    You can capture the same jobs again with the extension, paste a job URL or description, or forward recruiter emails to your @heyvitae.co alias to rebuild your tracker. Resumes you’ve already drafted travel as PDF or pasted text — Hey Vitae versions them per role from there.

  • Can I track interviews and follow-ups?

    Yes. Interviews are first-class — you can prep with role-specific kits, log notes during and after, and schedule follow-up reminders. Threads from forwarded recruiter emails link to the right job automatically.

  • Is Hey Vitae free?

    Yes — Free covers up to 20 tracked jobs, 3 saved documents, and limited AI boosts. No card needed to start. Pro is $19/month (or $54 for a 3-month pass) when your search picks up.

The bottom line

It's not just a tracker.
It's a system for running your job search.
