## Pricing

from $0.80 / 1,000 jobs

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Remote Jobs Scraper & Aggregator: RemoteOK, We Work Remotely, Remotive, Himalayas, Jobicy, Working Nomads & Arbeitnow

**Remote jobs scraper** for work-from-home jobs · **empleos remotos / trabajo remoto** · **vagas remotas / trabalho remoto**.

Get **remote jobs from 7 top remote job boards in a single run**, merged into one clean schema and **deduplicated** (the same job posted on 3 boards appears once). Filter by keyword, allowed location (Worldwide, LATAM, Europe, USA...), posting date and salary.

### Why use it

- 🌍 **7 boards, one run, one schema**: RemoteOK, We Work Remotely, Remotive, Himalayas, Jobicy, Working Nomads, Arbeitnow.
- 🧹 **Cross-board deduplication** by company + title.
- 🎯 Filters: keywords, exclude words, location restrictions, posted within N days, only with salary.
- 💸 **Pay only for results**: no jobs = no charge at all.
- ⚡ Official public feeds, no browser, results in seconds.

### Use cases

Remote job boards & newsletters · job alert bots (Telegram/Slack/Discord) · AI agents and RAG · hiring-trend analytics · recruiting lead gen.

### Input example

```json
{ "keywords": ["python", "data engineer"], "locationKeywords": ["worldwide", "latam"], "postedWithinDays": 7, "maxResults": 300 }
```

Empty input returns the 200 newest remote jobs from all boards.

### Output example

```json
{ "source": "himalayas", "title": "Senior Backend Engineer", "company": "Acme", "location": "Worldwide", "salaryMin": 120000, "salaryMax": 150000, "salaryCurrency": "USD", "postedAt": "2026-10-20T15:27:08+00:00", "url": "https://...", "applyUrl": "https://...", "tags": ["python", "aws"], "description": "..." }
```

### Pricing

Pay-per-event: **$1.00 per 1,000 jobs** + $0.005 per run (only when results exist).

### Notes

Each job links back to the original board, as their API terms ask. Missing a board? Open an issue.

### Use with AI agents (MCP)

This Actor works as a tool for AI agents through the [Apify MCP server](https://mcp.apify.com). Add it to Claude (Desktop/Code), ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code or any MCP client with this URL:

`https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=datadesk-io/remote-jobs-aggregator`

Sign in with your Apify account (OAuth) or pass your API token. The agent sees the input schema, runs the Actor and reads the dataset; every input field is optional and every output field is documented.

**What goes in → what comes out:** Input: optional keyword, location, date and salary filters. Output: deduplicated remote jobs from RemoteOK, We Work Remotely, Remotive, Himalayas, Jobicy, Working Nomads and Arbeitnow as one JSON schema: title, company, salary, tags, location, date, apply URL.

**Example prompt:**

> Find remote Python jobs posted in the last 3 days that pay over $100k.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "keywords": [
        "python"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("datadesk-io/remote-jobs-aggregator").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = { "keywords": ["python"] }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("datadesk-io/remote-jobs-aggregator").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "keywords": [
    "python"
  ]
}' |
apify call datadesk-io/remote-jobs-aggregator --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,datadesk-io/remote-jobs-aggregator"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
