Figures read from Teal’s own published pricing on 4 August 2026. We have not run Teal end to end, so this compares what each product publishes rather than how it feels to use.
Where Ryzio is better
- All 15 templates are free, with the count published rather than left vague.
- Free AI is one complete optimization every 30 days, so a full pass finishes instead of stopping when a credit balance runs out.
- Tailoring and tracking sit in one workspace, so the version you sent stays attached to the application.
- $19.99 a month, with no weekly plan. A $13 week works out near $56 a month if it keeps running.
Where Teal is better
- A free Chrome extension that saves a job straight from the posting in one click, which makes applying at volume much faster.
- Customisable outreach emails for each stage of a search, covering the application, the follow-up and the note after an interview.
- A mature tracker with a genuinely generous free tier: unlimited job tracking, with no cap that stops you partway through a search.
Which one to pick
Choose Ryzio if you want every template included, AI help that completes a full pass, and your tailoring and tracking in one place.
Choose Teal if you apply at volume and want one-click capture from job boards, or you want ready-made outreach emails for each stage.
Teal vs Ryzio, answered
Which free plan gives more?
They are close and differently shaped. Both give unlimited job tracking. Teal gives 10 templates and a fixed pool of AI credits: 10 resume bullets, 2 summaries and 2 cover letters, which does not refill. Ryzio gives all 15 templates and one complete optimization every 30 days. Teal suits lots of small AI edits, Ryzio suits one full pass at a resume.
What does Teal do that Ryzio does not?
Teal has a free Chrome extension for saving jobs in one click, and outreach email templates for each stage of a search. Both are on our roadmap rather than in the product today, so if either is central to how you job hunt, Teal covers it now.
Is Ryzio cheaper than Teal?
