Ashby Job Board API

Scrape Ashby jobs from any Ashby job board through the public Ashby API, with no API key and no login. Give it company names, board slugs, or jobs.ashbyhq.com URLs and get back structured job records with titles, locations, departments, employment types, timestamps, full descriptions, and the employer's own published salary ranges. Or give it nothing and let it discover companies from its bundled directory of 2,700+ verified Ashby job boards.

Ashby is the ATS behind the careers pages of many of the fastest-growing companies, including OpenAI, Ramp, Notion, Linear, and Cerebras. This actor reads the same public API that powers every hosted Ashby job board, live at run time, so every row reflects what the employer's board says right now, not what an index remembered from last week. If you have been searching for an Ashby jobs API, an Ashby job board scraper, or a way to pull AshbyHQ jobs into your own pipeline, this is the maintained version of that tool.

Ashby salary data employers actually publish

Ashby job boards carry structured compensation: salary ranges with currency and pay period, equity flags, and human-readable summaries like "$211.4K - $290.6K". This actor passes the raw structure through as salaryRaw, normalizes it into salaryDerived, and flattens it into ready-to-export salaryMin, salaryMax, salaryCurrency, and salaryPeriod columns. When an employer does not display pay, a deterministic parser still checks the posting text for a published range. No model calls, no guessing: the Ashby salary fields come from what the employer wrote.

One actor, three ways to read a board

1. Full job records (default): every open job on the Ashby job boards you name, with descriptions in the formats you pick and salary data on every row that has it.
2. Job URLs only: the cheapest way to index everything: id, title, company, link, employment type, and the publish date, without descriptions.
3. Company discovery: one row per company that hires through Ashby, live-verified with a current open-jobs count. The bundled directory covers 2,700+ boards found in public web archives and re-verified at run time.

Leave the company list empty and the actor sweeps the directory for you, capped by maxCompanies and maxJobs so an exploratory run stays small.

Company identity and remote eligibility

Turn on the company-data add-on and each job row is enriched from its own public job page: the hiring company's real name, website, and logo, the countries where remote applicants may live, the application deadline when the employer sets one, and whether the posting accepts direct applications. Remote-eligibility countries are the employer's own declaration, not a guess, which makes this the clean way to build location-aware remote job feeds from Ashby boards.

Find companies that use Ashby

Set outputMode to companiesOnly and the actor becomes an Ashby customers directory: one row per company with its board slug, board URL, and a live count of open roles. Filter it with discoveryQuery, or pass your own prospect list to check specific companies. Nobody publishes an official list of companies that use Ashby; this mode builds you one on demand.

Check whether a company has an Ashby job board

Type a company name the way you know it. The actor matches names to board slugs automatically ("Black Semiconductor" finds blacksemiconductor), and when a board does not exist it returns a clear in-band error row with the closest known slugs as did-you-mean suggestions. Point it at a list of prospects and it tells you exactly who hires through Ashby and how many roles they have open.

Track new Ashby job postings without state

Every Ashby job carries the employer's own publish timestamp. Set publishedAfter to 25h on a daily schedule and each run returns only what appeared since yesterday. There is no seen-list or delta store to maintain between runs, because the timestamp comes from the source.

Pay for exactly what you receive

Billing is per delivered row, with no start fee and no minimum spend. Filters (title, department, location, employment type, remote, dates) run before billing, so filtered jobs cost nothing. The base job record is one event, salary data included; Markdown, HTML, or plain-text descriptions, the company and remote-eligibility enrichment, and the whole-run report are optional add-ons, each billed only on the rows that actually carry them. Turn everything off and a job row costs a fraction of a cent.

Ashby job board API pricing

Pay per event, per delivered row. The base job record covers every structured field, salary data included. Add-ons bill only on rows that carry them: description formats, the company and remote-eligibility enrichment, and the whole-run report. URL index rows and discovered companies have their own low per-row events. No start fee, no monthly rental, no minimum results per run, and filtered rows are never charged. Current prices are on the store page's pricing card.

FAQ

Is this an API or a web scraper?

Both, honestly. Under the hood it reads the same public endpoint a scraper would. What you get is an API: structured JSON on demand, filters, stable field names, and no HTML unless you ask for it. If you have been maintaining your own Ashby scraper, this is the version where someone else maintains the parser.

Can I use this from Claude or another MCP client?

Yes. Add the hosted MCP server URL from the section above and the actor shows up as a callable tool in Claude Code (free trial), Claude Cowork (free trial), or any MCP client. Agents can discover it, run it, and read the dataset without any glue code.

How do I check if a company has an Ashby job board?

Put the company's name in the companies field. The actor tries the name's slug spellings against the live API, and in companiesOnly mode it returns one row per company with its board URL and current job count, or a clear not-found error with did-you-mean suggestions.

Is there a page that lists all Ashby job boards?

Not from Ashby itself, which is exactly why this actor exists. Set outputMode to companiesOnly and it sweeps its bundled directory of verified boards, capped by maxCompanies. Raise the caps to go wider.

What is jobs.ashbyhq.com?

It is the domain where Ashby hosts its customers' public job boards: every company on Ashby gets a careers page at jobs.ashbyhq.com/companyname. Paste any of those URLs into this actor, board or single job, and it returns the structured data behind the page.

What is api.ashbyhq.com?

It is the public, read-only job posting API that powers every hosted Ashby job board. This actor reads it directly, which is why results are live rather than indexed.

What is the difference between Ashby and Greenhouse job boards?

They are competing applicant tracking systems with similar public job feeds. Ashby boards live at jobs.ashbyhq.com and publish structured salary data far more often; Greenhouse boards live at boards.greenhouse.io and carry an extra last-updated timestamp. This account maintains an actor for each: this one for Ashby, and the Greenhouse Job Board API for Greenhouse, with matching output schemas so you can merge both into one dataset.

Do I need an Ashby API key?

No. Ashby's authenticated APIs are for employers. This actor uses only the public job posting layer, so there is nothing to sign up for and no key to manage.

How do I get salary data for Ashby jobs?

It is on the base job row. Employers that display compensation publish structured ranges; those arrive as salaryRaw (verbatim) and salaryDerived (normalized min, max, currency, period, with source set to native). For employers that do not display pay, the actor still parses the posting text for a published range.

How do I get only new job postings?

Set publishedAfter to a window like 24h, or an ISO date. The actor uses the employer's own publish timestamps, so there is no state to manage between runs.

How do I find companies that use Ashby?

Set outputMode to companiesOnly. You get one row per company with its board slug, a live open-jobs count, and the board URL. Add a discoveryQuery to narrow by name, or pass your own prospect list to check specific companies.

Is the job description included by default?

Yes, as Markdown, which reads well in AI pipelines and converts cleanly to anything else. HTML and plain text are separate toggles. Each format is a per-row add-on charge, so you only pay for what you ship.

Why did a board return an error row?

Error rows carry a stable errorCode: board_not_found means the slug does not exist on the public API (check the didYouMean suggestions), job_not_found means a single-job URL pointed at a closed posting, http_error means the source answered abnormally. Errors are in-band rows, so your pipeline sees them without reading logs.
