## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## ATS Job Postings Scraper

Extract every open role from companies hosted on Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workable, and SmartRecruiters. This actor reads each platform's stable public JSON endpoint, normalizes the results into one consistent schema, and returns clean postings ready for recruiting tools, hiring signal pipelines, and job search agents. No browser, no login, no fragile HTML selectors, which is why it stays cheap and rarely breaks.

Built for recruiters, job market researchers, and developers building hiring data products.

### Features

- Scrape job postings from Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workable, and SmartRecruiters
- Normalize every posting into one schema across all five platforms
- Filter by keyword and by remote status
- Accept career page URLs, platform:token shorthands, or bare company tokens
- Read stable public endpoints for low maintenance and high reliability
- Pay per posting, no subscription

### Use cases

- Aggregate open roles across a list of target companies
- Track hiring signals for sales and market intelligence
- Feed a job board or job search agent with fresh postings
- Monitor a competitor's open roles on a schedule

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `companies` | array (required) | Career page URLs, platform:token shorthands, or bare tokens |
| `keywords` | array (optional) | Only return postings whose title or department contains a term |
| `remoteOnly` | boolean (default false) | Only return postings detected as remote |

```json
{ "companies": ["greenhouse:stripe", "lever:matchgroup", "https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/ramp"], "keywords": ["engineer"] }
````

### Output

One normalized item per posting:

```json
{
  "platform": "greenhouse",
  "company": "stripe",
  "title": "AI Engineer",
  "department": "Solutions Architecture",
  "location": "Chicago",
  "remote": false,
  "postedDate": "2026-07-03T08:14:53-04:00",
  "applyUrl": "https://stripe.com/jobs/search?gh_jid=8044460"
}
```

### Pricing: worked example

Pay per event. You are charged `scan-init` at $0.03 once, `company-scanned` at $0.02 per company read, and `posting-extracted` at $0.003 per posting returned.

Scanning 3 companies that return 150 postings triggers 1 start ($0.03), 3 company events ($0.06), and 150 posting events ($0.45). Total: $0.54.

### How to use

1. Open the actor and click Try for free.
2. Add companies as career page URLs, platform:token shorthands, or bare tokens.
3. Optionally add keywords or set remoteOnly.
4. Click Start.
5. Download the normalized postings as JSON or CSV from the Storage tab.
6. Load them into your ATS, job board, or hiring signal pipeline.

### FAQ

**How do I scrape jobs from Greenhouse or Lever?**
Add the company as `greenhouse:stripe` or `lever:matchgroup`, or paste its career page URL, and the actor reads the public postings endpoint.

**Which ATS platforms are supported?**
Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workable, and SmartRecruiters.

**Do I need an API key for each ATS?**
No. It reads each platform's public JSON endpoint.

**What if a company is not on a supported platform?**
It is reported as skipped, not an error, so a batch run never fails on one company.

**Can an AI agent run this?**
Yes. It supports agentic payments, so a recruiting agent can pull postings and pay per posting.

### API and agents

Run it from the [Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2) or let an AI agent call it. Supports agentic payments via x402 and Skyfire (pay per event, limited permissions, no Standby).

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/hereditary_model~ats-job-postings-scraper/runs?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "companies": ["greenhouse:stripe"] }'
```
