In more detail
Where Jude and Teal differ
Teal is a job tracker with an AI resume builder bolted on, focused on the US market. Jude is built the other way round: a truthful CV and cover-letter engine that works from your real experience, with the tracker and interview prep included.
That difference shows up in the writing. Jude never invents experience to fill a page — every line traces back to something you confirmed — so you're never caught out in an interview by a CV that overstated you.
When Teal is the better choice
If you're job-hunting in the US and want a mature tracker with a large browser-extension ecosystem for saving postings, Teal is strong at that.
If you want European pricing, GDPR-native data handling, and AI that won't fabricate, Jude is the closer fit.
