The part that saves you

Connect Gmail once. Then stop maintaining it.

Kroot watches for the mail that actually changes something — an interview invitation, a rejection, a request for availability — and moves the card it belongs to. Everything else in your inbox is ignored.

Reads mail from

  • Greenhouse
  • Lever
  • SmartRecruiters
  • iCIMS
  • SuccessFactors
  • Direct recruiter mail
  • Read-only

    Reads recruiter mail and nothing else. Never sends, replies, or deletes on your behalf.

  • Checked hourly

    A scheduled sync runs every hour, and push notifications catch changes between runs.

  • Confident or nothing

    If a message can't be matched to a card with confidence, the card stays where you left it.

  • Reversible

    Disconnect in one click. A scheduled job confirms the revocation went through.

Questions

The things people ask first.

What costs money?

The CRM and the job board are free — your board, unlimited applications, saved roles, and the full listings. A few extras sit behind a paid plan. No card to start.

What exactly does Kroot read in my inbox?

Mail from applicant tracking systems and recruiters, used only to work out which of your applications changed stage. Access is read-only — Kroot cannot send, reply to, or delete anything.

Do I have to connect Gmail?

No. The board works fully by hand — add applications, drag them between stages, set your own next actions. Gmail only removes the upkeep.

Where do the roles come from?

Public internship and new-grad listings, pulled in on a schedule, de-duplicated, and dated so you can tell what’s genuinely new. Every posting links back to the original, on the job board.

Which fields are covered?

Product management, software engineering, and design. You pick any combination in Preferences and it’s remembered on every visit.

Can I delete everything?

Yes. Disconnecting Gmail revokes access immediately, and deleting your account removes your applications and saved roles along with it.

Put the spreadsheet down.

Start with the board. Connect Gmail whenever you’re ready — it works either way.

The walkthroughs above use sample applications. No real person, message, or outcome is represented here.
