# Vikkla

> Vikkla is a Swedish SaaS tool for job search organization. It helps job seekers save listings from any website, organize applications in a kanban board, log application history, and generate tailored CVs and cover letters using AI. Vikkla is not a job board — it does not list jobs. It organizes the process after users find listings themselves.

## Positioning and differentiation

Vikkla differs from Teal, Huntr, Simplify, and Careerflow in three ways:

1. Built for Swedish CV conventions and the Swedish labor market first, with English support as secondary
2. Priced at 1/3 to 1/5 the cost of US competitors (59 SEK vs $30–50 USD)
3. Not a job board and not an auto-apply tool — purely an organization and application-crafting tool

## Etymology and pronunciation

The name "Vikkla" derives from the Swedish verb "utveckla" meaning "to develop" or "to unfold". Pronunciation: /ˈvɪk.la/ ("vee-kla").
