Pros

  • The core tools are genuinely free, not trial-limited: Teal states you don't need to upgrade to edit and export unlimited resumes, bookmark unlimited roles in the Job Tracker, or track unlimited networking contacts
  • No card-up-front trial: Teal says it doesn't offer a standard free trial requiring payment information, and that entering card details means you're signing up for a subscription — so the free tier isn't a countdown
  • The refund policy is published with specific per-plan windows — 2 calendar days on weekly, 7 on monthly, 14 on quarterly — rather than left vague
  • You can cancel at any time, and Teal's pricing page says the account reverts to the free plan at the end of the billing period

Cons

  • The free AI credits are non-renewable — 10 for resume bullets, 2 for professional summaries, and 2 for cover letters
  • Free Job Matching surfaces only the top five keywords from a job description; the full list is a Teal+ feature
  • Free Analysis Mode shows basic issues only — advanced issues are behind Teal+
  • Cancelling does not itself refund you: a refund has to be requested by contacting Teal at membersupport@tealhq.com, and Teal states that submitting a request does not guarantee a refund will be issued
  • By Teal's own per-day figures the shortest plan is the most expensive per day — $1.85 on the 7-day plan against $0.96 on the 30-day and $0.87 on the 90-day
  • The refund policy lists an eligibility window for an Annual Plan, but no annual option or price appears on the pricing page — if you want annual billing, that price isn't published where the other three are

What Teal actually does

Teal bundles a resume builder, a job tracker, and a contacts tracker. In Teal's own words, you don't need to upgrade to "edit and export unlimited resumes in our Resume Builder, bookmark unlimited roles in your Job Tracker, and track unlimited networking details/connections in our Companies and Contacts Trackers." What the paid tier changes isn't access to those tools — it's how much of each one you get: the AI generation, the analysis, the templates and the design controls layered on top of them.

What's free forever, and what isn't

Teal's pricing table labels its free column "Free Forever," and the split between it and Teal+ is drawn feature by feature rather than as a blanket lock:

The non-renewable wording on the AI credits is the detail worth pausing on. They aren't a monthly allowance that refills — they're a fixed number attached to the account.

The three Teal+ plans

The pricing page prints its own per-day equivalent under each plan:

Those are Teal's numbers, not ours, and they make the trade-off plain: the shortest commitment carries the highest daily cost. The page adds "No credit card required to start" and "Upgrade or downgrade your plan or cancel at any time."

Refunds and cancellation

Cancelling and getting money back are two separate actions: "Cancelling your subscription does not automatically trigger a refund." A refund has to be requested by contacting Teal at membersupport@tealhq.com, and Teal is explicit that "submitting a refund request does not guarantee that a refund will be issued." The eligibility windows run from the start of the billing period — 2 calendar days on the Weekly Plan, 7 on the Monthly Plan, and 14 on the Quarterly Plan. Cancellation itself takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and Teal states plainly that it "cannot be held responsible for recurring subscriptions if a member fails to cancel their account."

Who it fits, and who it doesn't

Teal suits someone who wants the organizational side of a job search — tracking roles, contacts and versions of a resume — without paying for it, and who treats the AI writing as an occasional assist rather than the main event. It fits less well if AI generation is the reason you're there: 10 bullet credits and 2 each for summaries and cover letters don't renew, so a heavy user reaches the paywall quickly and the real question becomes whether $29 every 30 days is worth unlimited generation. It's also a weaker fit if you want heavy document polish specifically: the resume builder itself is free, but unlimited AI generation, the advanced Analysis Mode issues, the full keyword list and the advanced Design Mode settings all sit behind Teal+.

Teal's free tier includes unlimited resumes, job tracking and contacts, but its AI credits — 10 bullets, 2 summaries, 2 cover letters — are non-renewable. Verified on Teal's own pricing page and knowledge base as of this writing.

Frequently asked questions

Is Teal actually free, or is it a trial?
It's free, not a countdown. Teal states you don't need to upgrade to edit and export unlimited resumes, bookmark unlimited roles in the Job Tracker, or track unlimited networking contacts. It also says it doesn't offer a standard free trial requiring payment information — once you enter card details, you're signing up for a subscription.
What do the free AI credits actually get me?
10 credits for AI bullet generation, 2 for professional summaries and 2 for cover letters. Teal describes them as non-renewable, so they don't refill each month.
How much is Teal+?
Three billing cadences: $13 every 7 days, $29 every 30 days, or $79 every 90 days. Teal prints its own per-day equivalents — $1.85, $0.96 and $0.87 respectively — so the shortest plan costs the most per day.
Can I get a refund if I subscribe and change my mind?
Only by asking, and only inside a window. Cancelling doesn't trigger a refund on its own; a refund is requested by contacting Teal at membersupport@tealhq.com. Requests must arrive within 2 calendar days of the billing period start on the weekly plan, 7 on monthly, or 14 on quarterly. Teal also states that submitting a request doesn't guarantee one will be issued.
What happens to my resumes and tracked jobs if I cancel?
Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and Teal's pricing page says the account reverts to the free plan at that point. Since the free plan covers unlimited resumes and job tracking, those features keep working — what you lose is the Teal+ layer, like unlimited AI generation and the full keyword list. What none of the Teal pages we checked state is whether resumes and tracked jobs already in the account are kept through that downgrade, so it's worth asking before you cancel.
Is there an annual plan?
Not one that's priced anywhere we could find. Teal's refund policy lists a 14-calendar-day refund window for an "Annual Plan," but the pricing page's plan block shows only the 7-day, 30-day and 90-day options, with no annual price stated.
