Hiring Signals & Technographics From Job Postings

What does Hiring Signals & Technographics do?

Find companies that are ready to buy, using what they say in their own job postings. Search live postings for roles they are hiring and tools they name, and get back one clean record per company: how many matching roles, how many are new this week, which technologies they mention, and links to the evidence. The index covers about 19,000 companies and is refreshed daily.

It works as a hiring signals API and a technographics API in one, and it returns company-level data only, with no personal contact details. That makes it a clean first step for your own enrichment workflow.

Why use Hiring Signals & Technographics?

• Hiring for a function means budget. A company hiring three SDRs is building a sales team and needs sales tools.
• Postings name the real stack. "Experience with Snowflake and dbt" tells you what a data team uses today. Back-office tools rarely appear on a homepage, so job posts often reveal more than a website scan.
• Timing is built in. Posting dates show who started hiring this week, not who matched a static list last year.
• One row per company. Matching roles, technologies, seniority, countries and stated pay are already counted for you.
• Evidence included. Every company comes with sample job links, so a sales rep can check the signal in seconds.

Who uses hiring signals?

• Sales teams selling to users of a tool: companies naming Salesforce, HubSpot, Zendesk or a competitor of yours.
• Agencies and recruiters finding companies with five or more open roles in their specialty.
• Account managers checking which of their accounts are hiring now.
• RevOps and AI agents feeding a CRM with a ready-made signal sentence per company.

How much do hiring signals cost?

You pay per company returned, and higher Apify plans pay less per company. The pricing panel on this page shows the price for your plan. On the Free and Starter plans:

Companies returned	Cost
50	$1.00
500	$10.00
5,000	$100.00

Platform usage is included, and Maximum companies caps your cost.

Tips for better signals

• Combine a technology with title keywords for intent: "salesforce" plus "sales" finds teams growing around that tool.
• Raise Minimum matching roles to 3 or more to focus on companies hiring at volume.
• Use Posted within the last N days of 7 to 30 for fresh signals.

Use Hiring Signals & Technographics with the API and AI agents

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('atsfeed/hiring-signals-technographics').call({
  technologies: ['salesforce'],
  titleKeywords: ['sales'],
  locations: ['United States'],
  minMatchingRoles: 3,
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();

AI agents in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP client can call this Actor as a tool through the Apify MCP server at mcp.apify.com. The API tab has Python, cURL and more.

FAQ

Does it return personal contact details?

No. It returns company-level signals only. If you use the results for outreach, follow the laws that apply to you, such as GDPR and CAN-SPAM.

How reliable is a technology match?

A tool named in a posting is a strong hint, not proof. A company may be moving away from it, or list it as a nice-to-have. Read the sample jobs before relying on a signal.

Coverage and accuracy

• Index size, November 2026: about 19,000 companies with about 730,000 open jobs. About 500,000 of those jobs have a full description, which technology matching needs.
• Data comes from public job boards on Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workable, SmartRecruiters, Recruitee, Personio and Breezy, refreshed daily. Companies that hire through other systems, or only through LinkedIn or Indeed, are not covered.
• Technology matching uses fixed rules applied to the employer's own words, and only covers jobs where the source shared a description. It can miss or misread a mention.
• Each company is one job board. A company using two systems appears twice.
