## Pricing

Pay per usage

This Actor is paid per platform usage. The Actor is free to use, and you only pay for the Apify platform usage, which gets cheaper the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

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

# README

## Company Hiring Tracker — Job Openings via Greenhouse & Lever

Give it a list of companies. It pulls their current open roles straight from
the public job board API behind Greenhouse or Lever — the same data that
powers `boards.greenhouse.io/{company}` and `jobs.lever.co/{company}` pages,
just as clean JSON instead of a webpage.

Built for recruiters, sales teams reading hiring activity as a buying
signal, and market researchers tracking headcount growth by department.

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `boards` | array | `{ "ats": "greenhouse"\|"lever", "slug": "company-slug" }`. The slug is the company identifier in the board's own URL. |
| `keywordFilter` | array of strings | Only keep jobs whose title contains one of these (case-insensitive). Leave empty for all jobs. |
| `includeDescription` | boolean | Fetch the full job description text. Off by default (smaller, faster runs). |

```json
{
  "boards": [
    { "ats": "greenhouse", "slug": "stripe" },
    { "ats": "lever", "slug": "palantir" }
  ],
  "keywordFilter": ["engineer", "product manager"]
}
```

Finding a company's slug: open their careers page, look for a link to
`boards.greenhouse.io/<slug>` or `jobs.lever.co/<slug>` — many companies
embed their board directly on their own `/careers` page, so check the page
source if it's not obvious from the URL bar.

### Output

One record per job:

```json
{
  "company": "stripe",
  "ats": "greenhouse",
  "jobId": "8023928",
  "title": "Account Executive, Bridge",
  "location": "London",
  "department": "8589 Bridge - S&M",
  "commitment": null,
  "url": "https://stripe.com/jobs/search?gh_jid=8023928",
  "postedAt": "2026-07-30T06:59:38-04:00",
  "updatedAt": "2026-08-06T12:10:12-04:00",
  "description": null,
  "discoveredAt": "2026-08-07T00:00:00.000Z"
}
```

### How it works

Direct calls to each ATS's own public JSON API — no scraping, no headless
browser, no proxy:

- Greenhouse: `https://boards-api.greenhouse.io/v1/boards/{slug}/jobs`
- Lever: `https://api.lever.co/v0/postings/{slug}?mode=json`

Both are the same endpoints the company's own public careers page calls to
render its job list; `robots.txt` on both API hosts explicitly allows this
usage (Greenhouse only excludes an unrelated `/embed/` path; Lever's is a
blanket `Allow: /`).

### Pricing note

Job counts per company vary enormously (a large company can have 500+ open
roles in one call). Billing is per **board queried**, not per job returned,
so pulling a big company's full board doesn't multiply the cost.

# Actor input Schema

## `boards` (type: `array`):

List of { "ats": "greenhouse"|"lever", "slug": "company-board-slug" }. The slug is the company identifier in the board's own URL, e.g. https://boards.greenhouse.io/stripe -> slug "stripe"; https://jobs.lever.co/palantir -> slug "palantir".

## `keywordFilter` (type: `array`):

Only keep jobs whose title contains one of these (case-insensitive). Leave empty to keep all jobs.

## `includeDescription` (type: `boolean`):

Fetch the full job description text (larger records). Off by default.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "boards": [
    {
      "ats": "greenhouse",
      "slug": "stripe"
    },
    {
      "ats": "lever",
      "slug": "palantir"
    }
  ],
  "keywordFilter": [],
  "includeDescription": false
}
```

# 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 = {
    "boards": [
        {
            "ats": "greenhouse",
            "slug": "stripe"
        },
        {
            "ats": "lever",
            "slug": "palantir"
        }
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("m_ctim/company-hiring-tracker").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 = { "boards": [
        {
            "ats": "greenhouse",
            "slug": "stripe",
        },

            "ats": "lever",
            "slug": "palantir",
        },
    ] }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("m_ctim/company-hiring-tracker").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 '{
  "boards": [
    {
      "ats": "greenhouse",
      "slug": "stripe"
    },
    {
      "ats": "lever",
      "slug": "palantir"
    }
  ]
}' |
apify call m_ctim/company-hiring-tracker --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,m_ctim/company-hiring-tracker"
        }
    }
}

```

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).
