Jobbox
Job-application tracker that fills itself in from your inbox
Other job trackers are a form you fill in. Jobbox is an email client. It reads the emails you already get. It matches each one to an application. Then it drafts the update, and shows you the line of email behind it. You accept it, or you don't. It never moves a card by itself. The agent is the Claude Code or Codex CLI already on your Mac New in 0.5: connect your own AI assistant. It can read, analyze, gives you flexibility
Hi everyone.
I built Jobbox because I am job hunting myself, and I kept losing track.
Here is my own board right now, pulled live from the app. 54 applications. 27 sent and waiting. 1 in screening. 2 interviewing. 22 closed. 256 emails behind all of it.
I typed none of that in. Since yesterday, 23 new emails arrived and one application moved from screening to closed. I found out by opening the app, not by remembering to update a row.
That was the whole problem. The information was already sitting in my inbox. It was just never written down.
How it works:
Connect your mailbox. An app password, five minutes, once. Gmail, iCloud, Fastmail, anything with IMAP.
Sync. It reads your mail and scores every message on your machine. No model, no network for this step, just the words.
Run. The agent reads the messages it flagged and writes down what changed. A new application. A status move. An interview next Tuesday.
Review. You accept or reject each one. Accept is the only thing in the app that writes to your board.
Step 4 is the part I care about most. It never moves a card by itself. Every proposal shows you the line of email it came from, so you can check it in a second.
One more thing. I did not open the app to get those numbers for this post. I asked Claude, which is connected to Jobbox and can only read. That shipped last week.
It is free, there is no account, and the agent is the Claude Code or Codex CLI you already have on your Mac.
If you are job hunting too, I want to know what your tracker looks like right now. A spreadsheet? Notion? Nothing at all? Nothing at all was my answer for a long time.

Who hunted Jobbox?
Jobbox was hunted by Vladislav Razin. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
