    Hmmm. Interesting. I'll think about it. Pricing is hard—I'm still looking at the market right now and will adjust as needed. In fact I've dropped it from $5/m and $40/y to $4/m and…

    I've worked with a startup that handles Application Tracking System before. The reason company ghost-ed candidates is because they want to keep them as an option. Say that they don…

    Thanks! Right now, it's either like todoist (freemium) / free for offline use, subscription for sync between devices. What do you think? Also, may I know how do you currently organ…
