Pinpoint Jobs Scraper — 620 Career Sites, Full Descriptions

Pinpoint is a UK-rooted applicant tracking system used by mid-market and scale-up employers. Its public endpoint is unusually generous: every posting comes with structured description content, not just a title and a link.

Point it at a company, or leave the list empty and search a bundled registry of 620 live Pinpoint career sites carrying 18,241 open postings.

{ "keywords": ["analyst"], "maxJobs": 200 }

{ "companies": ["https://10kai.pinpointhq.com"] }

No login, no cookies, no proxies, no API key.

The description is split into real sections

Most ATS platforms hand you one blob of HTML. Pinpoint separates the posting into fields the employer filled in deliberately:

• the role summary
• key responsibilities
• skills, knowledge and expertise
• benefits

This Actor joins them into descriptionText as readable plain text, in that order, so the structure survives as paragraphs rather than being lost in markup. Measured across live boards, description content is present on 100% of rows.

What you get

Field	Description
provider	Always pinpoint — the same schema the multi-ATS Actors below emit
company / companySlug	Employer subdomain
jobId	Pinpoint posting id — stable, so it works as a dedupe key across runs
title	Job title
location	Office location, e.g. London
department	Department, from the employer's own org structure
employmentType	Full-time, contract, internship, as the employer classified it
remote	Derived from Pinpoint's workplace_type (onsite / hybrid / remote)
applyUrl	Direct link to the posting
descriptionText	Summary, responsibilities and required skills, as plain text
salary	Present only when the employer filled it in — see below
scrapedAt	When this row was read

Pay ranges, on more than a third of postings

Pinpoint asks employers for a minimum, a maximum, a currency and a period, and stores them as separate numbers rather than a sentence. Measured across every live board in this registry — 17,302 postings from 615 boards — 42.5% carry a pay range.

{ "salary": "45000–55000 GBP annual" }

Four platforms in this family publish pay, and they differ in form and in how often it is filled:

Platform	Pay present	Form
Breezy HR	45.7%	Free text, as the employer wrote it
Pinpoint	42.5%	Separate numbers — min, max, currency, period
Ashby	38.9%	Prose summary, sometimes with an equity note
Recruitee	26.9%	Separate numbers, mostly European currencies

Pinpoint and Recruitee are the two that give you numbers you can compare, which is what you want for benchmarking. The remaining platforms expose no salary field whatsoever, and no scraper can invent one.

The remaining 57.5% come back null because the employer left the fields blank — not because the Actor failed to read them.

There is no posting date, though. Pinpoint exposes a deadline_at rather than a published date, so postedAt is null and postedWithinDays keeps these rows rather than dropping them.

Input

Option	What it does
keywords	Keep only titles containing one of these. Case-insensitive.
excludeKeywords	Drop titles containing any of these, e.g. senior, intern.
locations	Keep only locations containing one of these.
remoteOnly	Keep only postings Pinpoint marks as remote.
postedWithinDays	Freshness filter. Pinpoint rows have no date and are always kept.
companies	Subdomains or board URLs. Leave empty to search all 620.
maxBoards	How many boards to scan, largest-first.
maxJobs	Hard cap on rows, so a run costs what you expect.

Finding a company slug

The board lives at <slug>.pinpointhq.com, so the slug is the subdomain. Paste the whole URL and the Actor extracts it. Or run without companies and read the companySlug column.

Recipes

Full-text search across employers. Responsibilities and required skills come back as plain text, so one run gives you a corpus you can grep for a tool, a certification or a seniority signal that the title never mentions.

Watch one company. One slug, run on a schedule, diff jobId between runs.

Feed a niche job board. Every row carries the employer's own applyUrl, so your users apply at the source rather than through a middleman.

Pricing

Pay per result — you are charged per job row delivered. A board that fails or returns nothing costs you nothing. Platform usage is included rather than billed on top.

Beyond Pinpoint

Companies move between applicant tracking systems, and most job-data projects need more than one:

• Career Site Job Feed — the same engine across every platform in this family, in one run, with an identical output schema.
• New Job Alerts — the same coverage, but each run returns only what appeared since the previous run.

Notes

• A dead slug never aborts the run. Failures land in a FAILED_BOARDS record in the key-value store, with the reason for each.
• companySlug:jobId is a stable key, safe for detecting what opened and closed between runs.
• No login, no proxies, no API key. Pinpoint publishes this endpoint openly. Private boards are invisible to every scraper, including this one.
