What the founder saw in his own first batch.
Twenty-eight cold emails to startup founders, tracked with Seensy. The three who opened the résumé were the ones worth following up with. The rest, he stopped waiting on.

Every open and every click, with the time.
You see when they first looked, when they came back, and which link they cared about. That's what tells you when to follow up.

faq · straight answers
Questions people ask before installing.
Does Seensy read my emails?
No. It never gets permission to read or send your Gmail. For emails you choose to track it stores the subject, the recipients, the links and when they were opened or clicked. Never the message body.
How does it know when someone opens my email?
When you press Send, Seensy adds a tiny invisible image to the email and routes each link through Seensy first. When the recipient's mail app loads the image, that's an open. When they click a link, that's recorded and they're sent straight to the real page.
How accurate are the opens?
Clicks are very reliable. Opens are a strong signal but not perfect: some mail apps block images, so a missing ✓✓ doesn't always mean unread, and Apple Mail can load images on its own, which can look like an open. Seensy labels hits in the first minute as scanners and never counts your own views.
Will the recruiter know I'm tracking?
The email looks exactly as you wrote it. There's no badge or banner. If they hover over a link they'll see it goes through Seensy before the real page, the same way links in most newsletters and sales emails work.
Does it count when I open my own sent email?
No. Seensy recognises your own views and clicks and leaves them out, so every open you see is theirs.
Does it work on my phone or in Outlook?
You send from Gmail on a computer, in Chrome, Brave or Edge. Recipients can open your email anywhere, phone included, and it's tracked. Outlook and the Gmail mobile app aren't supported for sending yet.
Is it on the Chrome Web Store?
It's in review. Leave your email and you'll get the install link the day it's approved.
What does it cost?
Nothing. Opens and link clicks are free for everyone, and there's no paid tier to unlock them. The paid tools that existed put résumé clicks behind a paywall; not charging for that is the whole point of Seensy.
How do I delete my data?
Email us from your account's address and we'll delete your account and all tracking data within 30 days. Details are in the privacy policy.
