What data do you get?

Jobs (dataset, one row per job)

Field	What it tells you
id, title, url	The job and its Instahyre page
company, companyId, companyTagline, companyAbout, companyLogo	The employer
companyFounded, companyAgeYears, companySizeBand	How old and how big (Instahyre's size band, not an exact headcount)
featuredEmployer, diversityEmployer	Instahyre's employer badges
locations, workFromHome, acceptsOtherCities	Cities, remote, and whether candidates from other cities are considered
skills	Skills the job lists
search, keywords, companySearched	Which search found it

Report (REPORTS, one per search; REPORTS_CSV as a flat sheet)

Field	What it tells you
totalOnInstahyre, jobsScanned, jobsRead, allJobsRead	How many jobs match and how many were read
allJobsByJobFunction, allJobsByCompanySize, allJobsTopCompanies, allJobsTopLocations, allJobsByType	Over every matching job, with shares
topSkills, topTitles, topCompanies, topCities, workFromHomePercent, multiCityPercent	Over the jobs read
companiesHiring, medianCompanyAgeYears, companiesFoundedLast5YearsPercent, companiesBySizeBand	Who is hiring
broadMatch	true when the keywords have several words (see Good to know)

Example: 24 October 2026

Five searches, 300 jobs read each (1,500 jobs in 3 minutes, no rate-limit errors):

Search	Jobs on Instahyre	Main job function	Large companies	Bangalore	Top skills besides the keyword
python	4,268	Backend 47%	56%	61%	FastAPI, Java, Django, Golang
react	1,641	Full-stack 86%	53%	56%	TypeScript, React Native, JavaScript
devops	2,149	Backend 45%, DevOps 42%	63%	52%	Kubernetes, AWS, Terraform, GCP

"java" with the city Pune (and remote jobs): 50 jobs found in the first 280 read, from 27 companies, 66% of all 2,608 Java jobs at large companies.

Pricing

Pay per event:

Event	Price
Job saved	$0.001
Search report	$0.02

1,000 jobs with a report cost $1.02. Platform usage is small: 1,500 jobs used under $0.01 of compute.

Good to know

• Speed: Instahyre answers 429 ("too many requests") after about 20 requests a minute, so the Actor reads one page of 35 jobs every 4 seconds, about 500 jobs a minute, and waits when asked to slow down.
• No salary, experience range or date: the public search does not carry them. Use experience to see the jobs Instahyre shows someone with that many years.
• Several words match broadly: "data science" matched 7,952 jobs and "product manager" 11,117 of the ~12,700 on Instahyre. Results are ranked by relevance, so the jobs read first are the right ones (Data Scientist, Data Engineer ...), but the all-jobs counts include loosely related jobs; such searches carry broadMatch: true. Single words ("python", "devops") count cleanly.
• Cities: the API has no city filter, so with cities set the Actor reads jobs and keeps those in your cities (plus remote jobs unless turned off). For rare cities this reads more pages. allJobsTopLocations gives the city split over every matching job either way.
• Job functions overlap: a job can sit in several functions, so those shares add up to more than 100%.
• No personal data: recruiter names are not collected.
