Cutshort Scraper: India tech jobs with salaries, skills and company data

Cutshort Scraper collects job posts from Cutshort.io, the Indian job board for tech, product and startup roles, without an account, cookies or a browser. Give it skills or roles such as python, react, devops or product manager, and each job comes back as one clean row: title, company (size, stage, founding year, website and LinkedIn), city, remote policy, salary range in INR, experience range in years, required skills, posting date and the full job description.

It is used to track hiring demand for a skill across Indian cities, to benchmark tech salaries by role and experience, to find startups and product companies that are hiring right now (for sales and recruiting outreach), and to feed job alerts, newsletters and job aggregators with fresh posts every day.

At a glance

What	Price
Job delivered	US$ 1.25 per 1,000 jobs on the Free plan (US$ 0.00125 each)
Bronze / Silver / Gold and above	US$ 1.19 / 1.13 / 1.06 per 1,000 jobs
Run start	US$ 0.005 per run

• 3 skills with 100 jobs each = 300 jobs = US$ 0.38 on the Free plan, start included.
• Error rows, duplicates and jobs removed by your filters are never charged. maxItems is a hard cap, and a spending limit set on the run stops it cleanly with everything delivered so far.
• Runs on the default Apify datacenter proxy, which is enough for Cutshort. No residential proxy cost.

How the search works

Cutshort has no free-text search for visitors. It organizes every job under skill and role pages (more than 3,600 of them, from Python and Java to Product Manager, Sales and UX Designer), each with city pages for 14 Indian cities and remote pages for the most popular skills. The Actor maps every term you type to the right page:

• python, java, devops, product manager go straight to their page.
• Close spellings are matched too: react opens React.js, machine learning opens Machine Learning (ML), data science opens Data Science. The log shows which page was used.
• A term with no page of its own (for example a long phrase) scans the newest startup jobs and keeps the ones whose title or skills contain it.
• With a location, the Actor uses the city page when it exists (python + pune opens Python Jobs in Pune); otherwise it filters by the job location.
• With workMode: remote, it uses the remote page when it exists (remote Python, remote Java, remote React.js...).

Cutshort lists jobs newest first, so postedWithinDays stops reading at the first older job and keeps daily runs short.

FAQ

Do I need a Cutshort account? No. Everything comes from public Cutshort pages, without login or cookies.

How many jobs can I get? A popular skill has thousands of live jobs (Python had more than 4,000 on 16 Oct 2026). Set maxItems to 0 to read them all; the Actor reads 50 jobs per request.

Why is the salary empty on some jobs? The employer chose to hide it. Those rows have salaryHidden: true and salaryText: "Best in industry"; the hidden numbers are never exported.

Does it return recruiter names or contacts? No. Only job and company data. Emails and phone numbers written inside descriptions are replaced with [contact removed].

Is it legal? The Actor reads public pages only. You are responsible for how you use the data under the laws that apply to you.

Something broke or a field is missing? Open an issue on the Actor page; issues are answered within a day.

Limitations

• Search goes through Cutshort's skill and role pages; free-text phrases with no page of their own scan the newest startup jobs only (up to about 1,200 jobs).
• City pages exist for 14 cities. Other cities are filtered from the job location, within the newest 600 jobs.
• Applying to jobs needs a Cutshort account and is not done by the Actor.

Changelog

• 16 Oct 2026: first version: search by skill or role, city, work mode, job type, experience, salary and date, company profile fields, full descriptions.
