LinkedIn and Indeed send job alerts 24 hours late. By then, 200+ people already applied. ApplyFirst monitors jobs in real-time and alerts you FAST so you can be among the first applicants - not applicant #500. Features: - Real-time monitoring - Email alerts (way faster than daily digests) - Smart filtering (title, location, seniority, excluded keywords) - Track everything in one dashboard Free 3-day trial. Apply first. Get noticed. Get hired.
Hey Product Hunt! Kelvin here.
I launched ApplyFirst at midnight on January 1st, 2026. The irony 😅
Why I Built This
I watched a friend apply to 300+ jobs in 2024. Zero callbacks.
Not because he wasn't qualified. Because by the time LinkedIn's "daily digest" arrived at 5 PM, every job already had 200+ applicants.
Recruiters stop reading after the first 20 resumes. He never had a chance.
That's broken. So I fixed it.
What It Does
ApplyFirst monitors jobs in real-time and alerts you FAST - way faster than LinkedIn/Indeed's daily emails.
You apply early. You get noticed. Simple.
You control everything:
- Job titles you want
- Locations (multiple)
- Seniority levels
- Keywords to EXCLUDE (e.g., "manager", "clearance", "travel")
You track everything:
- Dashboard shows all jobs
- Know exactly when you were notified
- Mark jobs as viewed/applied
What I Need From You
Brutal honesty:
- Does this solve a real problem for you?
- What's missing?
- Would you pay $19.99/mo for this?
- UI/UX feedback?
I'm here all day. Ask me anything. Roast me if needed. I can take it.
