ATS Finder - Which ATS a Company Uses & Its Job Board URL

Give a company domain. Get back which ATS runs that company's job board, under what board name, and how many roles are open right now.

"What applicant tracking system does this company use?" and "what is their Greenhouse / Lever / Ashby / Workable board called?" are questions people answer by hand, one company at a time, because every other job-board Actor already expects you to know the board name (stripe, spotify, monzo). This finds it.

Feed it a list of domains from your CRM and you get a directory: ATS, board name, board URL, and how many roles are open right now.

What makes an answer trustworthy here

A board named example exists on Greenhouse with 21 open jobs. It has nothing to do with example.com. Guessing the board name from the domain and reporting a hit would have produced exactly that lie - measured on 2026-08-28, that is a real board with real jobs.

So this Actor separates two different claims, in two different columns:

Column	Question it answers
verified	Does a live board with this name exist on this ATS right now? (checked against the ATS's own API)
confidence	Is it this company's board?

confidence is one of:

• confirmed-by-board-links-back - the board's job postings link to the company's own domain
• confirmed-by-job-posted-on-company-site - a job link on the company's site resolves to a job that really is on that board
• confirmed-by-board-name-matching-domain - the company site links a board whose name is the company's own domain name
• confirmed-by-sole-board-link-on-company-site - the company site links exactly one board, and nothing suggests it belongs to anyone else
• linked-on-company-site-but-not-attributable - the board is linked from the site, but the page also lists other companies' jobs
• name-match-only - the board name simply matches the domain and nothing else backs it up

rowType follows from that:

rowType	ok	Meaning	Charged?
board-found	true	Confirmed to be this company's board	Yes
unconfirmed-link	true	Linked from the site, but the page lists other companies' boards too - a lead	No
name-match	true	A live board of that name exists, nothing else backs it up - a lead	No
no-board-found	true	Nothing could be confirmed for this domain	No
unavailable	false	The domain was unusable, or the ATS APIs could not be reached	No

Why unconfirmed-link exists

A link on a company's page is not proof the board is theirs. Investor portfolios, accelerators, universities and partner pages all link job boards they do not own.

Measured on 2026-08-28: a16z.com links the job boards of eight portfolio companies (Figma, xAI, Anduril and others) from its own jobs page. Treating "it was linked from their site" as ownership would report all eight as a16z's boards - and charge for them. This Actor returns a16z's own board as board-found and the other eight as free unconfirmed-link leads, naming them rather than hiding them.

The same rule applies to job links: when a page references jobs from more than one board, none of those references are accepted as proof of ownership.

You are charged only for board-found rows. Leads, misses and errors are free.

How it looks up a board

1. Guess from the domain (stripe.com → stripe) and ask all four ATS APIs whether that board exists. Costs nothing to the company's own site.
2. Read the company's own pages (home page, then /careers, /jobs, /careers/jobs, /company/careers, ...) and look for a link to a Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby or Workable board - or to an individual job on one. Careers links are followed one hop, including to a separate careers domain when it carries the company's name. robots.txt is fetched for every host that is about to be read and obeyed, a host that refuses once is not asked again, and the page budget is a hard cap.
3. Check every candidate against the ATS's own API. A link on a page is a claim, not a fact - only boards the ATS confirms are returned, with their live open-role count.

Input

Field	Type	Default	What it does
domains	array	stripe.com, monzo.com, ramp.com, lyst.com	Company domains, up to 500. Full URLs work; only the host is used; duplicates are collapsed.
tryDomainNameFirst	boolean	true	Probe the ATS APIs with the name guessed from the domain
scanCareerPages	boolean	true	Read the company's own pages to confirm ownership
maxPagesPerSite	integer	4	How many pages of the company's site to read before giving up
respectRobots	boolean	true	Read robots.txt first and skip anything it disallows

Output columns

rowType, ok, reason, domain, ats, boardSlug, boardUrl, openJobs, verified, foundVia, confidence, evidenceUrl, checkedAt

Every row has all 13 columns, including the misses - so the table never changes shape.

boardSlug is exactly what you feed into a job-scraping Actor afterwards; boardUrl is the page a human can open.

Measured, not estimated

Run on 2026-08-28 with the shipped build:

Twelve domains, one run, 44 seconds:

Domain	Result
stripe.com	Confirmed - Greenhouse stripe, 580 open; the board's jobs link back to stripe.com
monzo.com	Confirmed - Greenhouse monzo, 66 open; the site links a board named after the company
ramp.com	Confirmed - Ashby ramp, 137 open; a job on the site is on that board
lyst.com	Confirmed - Workable lyst, 8 open; same
notion.so	Confirmed - Ashby notion, 135 open; same
linear.app	Confirmed - Ashby linear, 29 open; same
a16z.com	Confirmed - Greenhouse a16z, 16 open, plus 8 portfolio boards returned as free unconfirmed-link leads
gitlab.com, cloudflare.com, discord.com, posthog.com	Lead only (name-match). These boards are real, but those careers pages are rendered by JavaScript, so nothing in the HTML proves ownership. Not charged.
example.com	Lead only (name-match). A Greenhouse board called example exists with 21 open jobs and has nothing to do with this domain. Not charged.

7 of 12 domains confirmed and charged; 5 returned as free leads. Four of those five have a real board this Actor could not prove - that is the honest cost of not guessing, and you pay nothing for it.

Test suite: 73 checks across two files, plus 29 deliberate defects injected into the source, all 29 caught by the tests. The whole per-domain decision - robots handling, the page budget, and every ownership rule - is driven by fakes so each branch is exercised.

Next step: pull the jobs

boardSlug is exactly the input the companion Actor takes. Once you know a company's board, ATS Jobs API returns every open role from Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby and Workable in one identical 29-column schema - with the same rule that an empty board, a missing board and a failed fetch are three different answers.

// this Actor  ->  { "ats": "Greenhouse", "boardSlug": "monzo", "openJobs": 66 }
// then        ->  { "boards": ["greenhouse:monzo"] }

Questions this answers

• Which ATS does a company use? - ats column, checked against that ATS's own API.
• What is their board called? - boardSlug, the identifier every job-board tool asks for.
• Are they hiring at all right now? - openJobs, live at the moment of the run.
• Is this really their board, or just a name that matches? - confidence, and you are only charged when it is really theirs.

Typical uses

• Build a target list of companies and hand the boardSlug values straight to a job-scraping Actor
• Track which companies are hiring at all - openJobs is live at the moment of the run
• Enrich a CRM with a careers-page URL that is actually correct
• Find out which ATS a set of companies uses, for competitive or vendor research

Notes and limits

• Only publicly published job boards are read. Nothing requires a login.
• Companies whose careers page is rendered entirely by JavaScript, or whose root domain does not lead to a careers page at all, may not expose a board link in the HTML. A genuine board then comes back as name-match - reported as a lead rather than upgraded by guesswork. Measured hit rate on the twelve domains above: 7 confirmed, 5 leads.
• Duplicate domains in your input (stripe.com and www.stripe.com) are collapsed to one lookup, so you are never charged twice for the same company.
• Greenhouse boards on the EU data-residency hosts (job-boards.eu.greenhouse.io) are not covered yet.
• Only Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby and Workable are covered today. Others come back as no-board-found, which is stated plainly rather than implied.

Other tools by NeverEmpty

Every NeverEmpty Actor follows the same rule: it never returns an empty result to mean two different things, and it only charges for rows that actually carry an answer.

• ats-jobs-api - every open job from a Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby or Workable board, one schema
• website-contacts - emails, phones and social profiles from any website, no invented addresses
• domain-lookup - WHOIS, DNS, MX, SPF, DMARC and SSL expiry for a list of domains
