ATS Hire-Trigger Intent Scraper — Greenhouse + Lever + Ashby + SmartRecruiters

Pull job postings from Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, and SmartRecruiters in a single API call. Each job is intent-enriched with extracted tech keywords, hiring-surge detection, first-in-function flags, and seniority. Built for SDR teams running buying-intent outreach. Pay per result.

Why this exists

TheirStack at $59-$2,078/mo. SyncGTM at $99/mo. Coresignal enterprise-only. Existing Apify ATS scrapers dump raw JD text without intent extraction. SDR teams want "give me the 30 companies hiring Sales Engineers AND mention Salesforce in the JD AND posted in last 7 days." That requires JD text-mining, not just job extraction.

Pricing

Event	Price	What it covers
job-listing	$0.005	One raw job pulled from any ATS platform
job-intent-enriched	$0.015	Job with tech-keyword extraction, hiring-surge flag, first-in-function flag

Apify free tier covers around $5/mo of usage out of the gate. No subscription, no minimum, no seat license.

Use cases

1. B2B SaaS SDRs targeting funded startups by what they are hiring (Modern Treasury sells to anyone hiring a Controller; Vanta sells to anyone hiring a CISO).
2. Recruiting agencies tracking hiring-surge signals across competitor ATS platforms.
3. VC scouts mapping hiring velocity at portfolio companies post-funding.
4. Account-based marketers running intent-driven targeting on tech-keyword matches in JDs.
5. Sales-ops building daily ICP lists from net-new postings filtered by department and seniority.

ATS coverage (v1)

• Greenhouse — boards-api.greenhouse.io, open JSON, no auth
• Lever — api.lever.co, open JSON, no auth
• Ashby — api.ashbyhq.com/posting-api/job-board/{slug}, open JSON, no auth
• SmartRecruiters — api.smartrecruiters.com/v1/companies/{slug}/postings, open JSON, no auth
• Workday — deferred to v2 (tenant-discovery is non-trivial)

Honest tradeoffs

• Cold-start latency on first call after idle (10-30s while Apify wakes the Standby actor)
• Slug derivation strips TLD (works for stripe, notion, figma, gitlab); v2 will fall back to careers-page parse for slugs that differ from the domain stem
• Tech-keyword regex uses word boundaries — extends to 100 common B2B SaaS tools; not exhaustive
• Department names from Greenhouse arrive with numeric prefixes ("1175 Enterprise - Account Executives") — v2 will normalize
