Remotive Remote Jobs Scraper & Salary API

The most complete Remotive scraper on Apify, and a keyless remote jobs API: no API key, no login. It returns every field the Remotive remote job board exposes for each listing, adds parsed salary numbers (min, max, currency, period), a company website URL, seniority, a freshness score and structured applicant countries, and gives you 13 filters to target exactly the remote jobs you need. Use it as a remote-work data feed for job boards and aggregators, salary benchmarking, recruiting, work-from-home job search and hiring-trend analysis.

Here is one real result, with every field the actor returns (descriptionHtml and descriptionText trimmed for readability):

What it does

This is a Remotive remote jobs scraper and remote-work data API. It reads the Remotive remote job feed, applies your filters on our side, and writes one clean record per job to the run dataset. Each record carries the title, company, company website, category, skill tags, salary text plus parsed salary numbers (min, max, currency, period), candidate location, structured applicant countries, employment type, seniority, posting date, application deadline, freshness score, apply URL, and both an HTML and a plain-text description. Every listing is a remote / work-from-home role (isRemote: true). Missing source values are returned as null. An optional paid detail add-on enriches each job with the company website, application deadline, applicant countries and workplace type. No login or API key is needed. Export to JSON, CSV or Excel.

How we compare

There are a handful of Remotive scrapers on Apify. This one returns the widest set of valid fields and the most filters. Where a rival genuinely wins, we say so.

Capability	This actor (scrapers_lat)	dami_studio/remotive-jobs-scraper	neuton/remotive-remote-jobs-scraper	wfh_scout/remotive-jobs-scraper	Multi-board aggregators
Filters (inputs)	13 (keyword, category, company, job type, seniority, tags, location, salary min, salary-only, date, sort, max, detail add-on)	3 (search, category, max)	3 (search, category, max)	~8 (keyword, region, type, seniority, salary min, age, ghost-risk, max)	keyword, salary, date

Price per result	0.008	0.002	0.003	from 0.002	~0.002

Honest trade-offs:

• The cheaper actors (dami_studio, neuton, wfh_scout, and the multi-board aggregators) cost less per result. We charge more because we return far more valid fields per job (parsed salary, company website, structured countries, deadline, seniority, freshness, full HTML and plain text) and offer 13 filters. If you only need id, title and URL at the lowest price, a $0.002 actor is enough.
• wfh_scout adds a ghost-job risk band and reasoning that we do not compute. If ghost-job scoring is your priority, look there.
• Multi-board aggregators pull RemoteOK, We Work Remotely, Himalayas and others alongside Remotive in one run. If you want many boards in one feed, use an aggregator (or run our sibling actors for RemoteOK and Himalayas too).

Use cases

• Remote job aggregators and job boards: ingest a clean, deduped Remotive feed with company website, apply URL and normalized salary.
• Salary benchmarking and remote-work research: use salaryMin, salaryMax, salaryCurrency and salaryPeriod to compare pay across categories and seniority.
• Recruiting and sourcing: filter by category, seniority, job type and skill tags to find live remote openings, then pull the company website.
• Lead generation: identify companies actively hiring remotely and, with the detail add-on, attach each company's website URL for outreach.
• Market and hiring-trend analysis: track posting dates, freshness and applicant countries over time.
• Work-from-home job search: filter live remote openings by keyword, category, seniority and salary, sorted newest or highest-paid first.

Quickstart

Open the actor, paste this into the input, and press Run. It returns the 25 most recent remote jobs, newest first.

{
  "maxJobs": 25,
  "sortBy": "publication_date_desc"
}

Narrow the feed with any filter, for example software engineering roles that publish a salary, highest first:

{
  "categories": ["software-development"],
  "jobTypes": ["full_time", "contract"],
  "salaryOnly": true,
  "sortBy": "salary_desc",
  "maxJobs": 50
}

Input reference

Run via API and CLI

Start a run and read the dataset. Replace <TOKEN> with your Apify API token.

Run synchronously and get dataset items in one call:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~remotive-jobs-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"categories":["software-development"],"salaryOnly":true,"sortBy":"salary_desc","maxJobs":25}'

Start a run asynchronously:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~remotive-jobs-scraper/runs?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"searchQueries":["react","vue"],"maxJobs":100}'

Apify CLI:

apify call scrapers_lat/remotive-jobs-scraper \
  --input '{"tags":["aws"],"maxJobs":50}'

Fetch results

Every run writes to a dataset. Fetch items as JSON, CSV, or Excel by changing format:

# JSON
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&clean=true&format=json"

# CSV
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&clean=true&format=csv"

# Paginate large datasets
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&offset=1000&limit=1000"

<DATASET_ID> is returned as defaultDatasetId in the run object.

Billing and limits

• Pay per result. You are charged per job returned (result event). See the pricing tab for the current per-result price.
• Detail add-on. When withDetails is on (paying accounts, on by default), each job that gains company website, deadline, applicant countries or workplace type is billed one details event. It is charged only after the job's result row is delivered, and only when extra data is actually found. Turn it off to skip those fields and the charge.
• No charge on failure. If a run errors, the actor writes a single item with a populated error field and does not charge. Empty runs cost nothing.
• Spend cap respected. Set maxTotalChargeUsd on the run; once reached, the actor stops emitting and charging.
• Free Apify plans are capped at 10 jobs per run and cannot use the paid detail add-on.
• Source coverage. Remotive's public feed currently exposes a limited window of its most recent listings and does not honor its own server-side category or keyword filtering. Our filters run on our side so they always apply, but the total pool per run is whatever Remotive currently publishes.

FAQ and troubleshooting

How many jobs can I get per run? As many as Remotive currently publishes in its public feed, filtered by your inputs. The feed is a rolling window of recent listings, so a broad run typically returns a few dozen fresh jobs rather than the entire historical archive.

Why did a category or keyword filter return few jobs? The source feed is a limited recent window and its own server-side filters are unreliable, so we filter on our side. If a narrow filter matches little, the window simply did not contain many matching jobs at that moment. Zero-result runs are not charged.

Is the salary parsed into numbers? Yes. Alongside the raw salary text we return salaryMin, salaryMax, salaryCurrency and salaryPeriod whenever the text contains numbers. Listings without a salary return null for these and salaryMentioned: false.

Where does companyUrl come from? From the listing page, read only when the withDetails add-on runs. It is the company website Remotive links to. With the add-on off, companyUrl is null.

What is the difference between descriptionHtml and descriptionText? descriptionText is plain text suitable for analysis; descriptionHtml preserves the original HTML markup. Both are full length.

Can I use this as a Remotive API without an API key? Yes. It works as a keyless remote jobs API: start a run over the Apify API or CLI, or call run-sync-get-dataset-items to get results in one request. No Remotive account, login or API key is required. See Run via API and CLI.

Is this an official Remotive tool? No. This actor is independent and has no affiliation with Remotive. It reads only publicly available Remotive data. Use it in accordance with Remotive's terms.
