The short answer
Barista is Guap’s Chrome extension for filling application forms, and filling forms and tracking applications with it are free. Each application it fills goes into a tracker with its date, so the tracking comes from applying rather than from typing it in. AI drafts are paid one at a time from credit that never expires. Behind it is Guap, a job platform for students and early-career people in Europe.
Huntr is a job search organiser first: a board of the jobs you are tracking, with resumes, cover letters, contacts and interviews around it, a Chrome extension that saves jobs and fills applications, and phone apps. It also sells to universities, bootcamps and career coaches.

Where Barista is better
- The tracker fills itself. Barista records each application as it fills it, and marks it sent when you submit, so you do not keep a board by hand.
- No cap on tracking. Every application Barista fills is tracked for free, however many there are. Huntr’s free plan tracks up to 100 jobs.
- No subscription. AI drafts are paid one at a time from credit that does not expire; the pricing page lists each price. Huntr’s unlimited AI comes with Pro, billed every one, three or six months.
- Jobs in Europe. Guap lists roles for students and graduates in Europe, and its free tools, including a job application tracker spreadsheet, need no account.
Where Huntr differs
- A fuller organiser. Huntr’s board, contacts, interview tracker and map cover a long search, including jobs you have not applied to yet. Barista’s tracker records the applications you send.
- Phone apps on iPhone and Android. Barista has none yet.
- Resume tools. Building and tailoring resumes is part of the product.
- Through your school. Huntr works with universities, bootcamps and coaches (Huntr), so your career centre may already give you access.
- Track record. On 13 October 2026 its store listing showed a 4.8 rating from about 1,300 ratings and 90,000 users (store listing).
Which one to pick
Pick Barista if most of your time goes on filling application forms, if you are applying in Europe, or if you want tracking that records itself as you apply.
Pick Huntr if you want one place to organise a long search, with contacts and interviews, a phone app, and resume tools, or if your school already gives you Huntr.
How we compared
Guap makes Barista and wrote this page, so read it knowing that. We read Huntr’s pricing, autofill, mobile and privacy pages and its Chrome Web Store listing on 13 October 2026, and every claim about Huntr links to the page that makes it. What this page says about Barista is what its code does on that date. If something has changed, write to friend@guap.work and we will correct it.
