It started with a spreadsheet and a lot of dread.
Not a pitch deck. A job seeker who got tired of losing track, and decided to build his way out.
That spreadsheet became ApplyArc: one place to track every application, prepare for the moments that matter, and know what to do next.

Built from the problem, not around it.
George
Founder
The first version came out of a real search: hundreds of applications, a Google Sheet with 47 columns, colour-coded tabs, and no reliable answer to one basic question: what needs attention next?
The available tools could store a job. They could not help decide where to focus, when to follow up, or how to prepare for the moments that mattered.
ApplyArc grew from that gap. The board keeps the whole search visible. The tools work from the actual role. The Coach reads the pipeline and points to the next move.
The ambition is larger than one search. ApplyArc is built for individuals today and designed to grow into the clear, trustworthy infrastructure universities, career services, and employers need tomorrow.

What the spreadsheet became.
A job-search system that does more than remember where you applied. It helps decide what should happen next.
Explore every featureSee the whole search
Every role, contact, deadline, and next step lives on one board instead of across tabs and inboxes.
Work from the actual role
Resume, cover-letter, and interview tools use the job in front of you, not a generic template.
Know what deserves attention
The Coach reads the pipeline and surfaces follow-ups, preparation, and applications that are going stale.
The person doing the search stays at the centre.
The product can grow. The user does not become an account row. Every decision still starts with the person trying to get hired.
Clear before clever
The product should make the next step obvious. If a feature adds noise without helping someone act, it does not ship.
AI has to earn its place
AI handles repetitive work and explains the result. It does not invent experience or turn every task into a chatbot.
The user keeps control
Export or delete your data whenever you want. We do not sell it, share it, or train an AI model on it.
The next chapter includes organisations.
ApplyArc serves individual job seekers today. The longer-term plan is to support universities, career services, and employers without pushing the job seeker behind an enterprise dashboard.
