Use cases

Recruiters and sourcing agencies

Daily feed of new startup roles in your niche; filter by companyStage, compensation, remote.

Sales and investors

Startups with the Actively Hiring badge and many open engineering roles are growing — a lead list with size, stage and tagline included.

Job boards and aggregators

Bulk export by role × city on a schedule; id is stable, so re-runs only add what is new.

AI agents

Call it from an agent (Apify MCP server, x402) with a plain question — "remote data scientist jobs at seed-stage startups" — and get structured rows back.

Integrations

Works with the Apify API and clients (Python, JavaScript), n8n, Make, Zapier, Google Sheets, webhooks and the Apify MCP server. Schedule it in the Apify Console to keep a live feed.

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/lergassy~wellfound-jobs-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \

Limits and troubleshooting

• Data comes from Wellfound's public listing pages (role, role + city, remote role, city). Company pages and individual job pages sit behind a bot check, so fields that exist only there (founder names, funding rounds) are not included.
• A role or city Wellfound does not know returns one free error row saying so — check the spelling against the URL on wellfound.com.
• Salary is shown only where the startup published it (about 85% of rows in our tests).

❓ FAQ

Is it legal to scrape Wellfound?

The Actor reads public listing pages that Wellfound shows to any visitor and collects no personal data of candidates. Job adverts are published to be read. Use the data in line with Wellfound's terms and your local law.

How fresh is the data?

Live at run time. Schedule the Actor hourly or daily to track new postings.

Can I search by keyword inside the description?

Not on Wellfound's side. Export a role and filter the description column afterwards.
