LazyApply Alternative

The UK job automation tool LazyApply isn't

LazyApply fires applications via LinkedIn Easy Apply — the same channel as thousands of other spam applicants. Autoply finds the hiring manager at each company and sends a direct cold email with your tailored CV and cover letter. Your application reaches a person, not an ATS pile. Track every recruiter reply. Bring your own AI key.

Why people leave LazyApply for Autoply

LazyApply floods LinkedIn; Autoply reaches the hiring manager directly

LazyApply fires applications via LinkedIn Easy Apply — the same channel as hundreds of other applicants, so your application can easily get lost in the ATS pile. Autoply finds the hiring manager or recruiter at each company using email finder tools, then sends a direct cold email with your tailored CV and cover letter attached, so it lands in front of a person.

You can't see what happened to your applications

LazyApply has no reply tracking. Autoply connects to your Gmail or Outlook and surfaces every recruiter message in one dashboard — with read/unread status, reply timestamps, and ghosting rate by company.

LazyApply is US-only for job sources

Autoply scrapes Reed, Adzuna, RemoteOK, WeWorkRemotely, and Google Jobs — all heavily used in the UK and Europe. LazyApply focuses on LinkedIn and Indeed US.

Flexible plans you can cancel any time

LazyApply locks you in monthly. Autoply plans start at £2.99/week and are cancel-any-time. If you land a job in week 2, just cancel — no wasted months.
