AIApply Alternative
AIApply costs $180+/mo.
Autoply starts at £2.99/week.
AIApply locks you into a subscription, uses only GPT-4, and requires a browser. Autoply runs on our servers 24/7, supports any AI model, and tracks every recruiter reply automatically.
The AIApply pricing problem
AIApply advertises a low monthly fee — but the fine print adds per-application charges, AI usage fees, and premium tiers. There's no BYOK, no flexible billing, and no easy cancellation when you land a job in week 1.
Autoply: from £2.99/week for 25 applications. Cancel any time. Bring your own AI key and get 30% off.

Why job seekers choose Autoply over AIApply
The “while you sleep” difference
AIApply is browser-dependent. Close your laptop and it stops. Autoply runs on Railway servers 24/7 — trigger 100 applications at 11pm and close your laptop. No extension. No babysitting.
Your AI, not theirs
AIApply locks you into their GPT-4 instance and charges you a markup. Autoply routes to your own Claude, GPT-4o, Gemini, or Mistral key — you pay AI costs directly at fractions of a penny per application, and get 30% off the platform fee permanently.
Recruiter replies you can actually see
Every application goes out with your own Autoply reply address, so when an employer replies Autoply matches it to the original application and moves it along your tracker — interview invites, rejections and confirmations included.
Stop paying when you land the job
Subscriptions are punishing — you're billed even after you accept an offer. Autoply plans are cancel-any-time. Land a job? Just cancel. No lock-in.
Apply to 100 jobs in one click
Upload your CV, set your preferences, trigger bulk apply. Any recruiter replies land in your Autoply inbox. 10 free applications, no card required.
