⚡ Part of a 74-scraper suite with 8,800+ runs · no login, no cookies, no ban risk.

💸 You are only charged for delivered results — empty searches, failed pages and duplicates are never billed.

Scrape every India tech job on CutShort

Leave searchSlugs empty and the actor reads CutShort's own /jobs index, discovers the category pages listed on it (up to 25), and walks them until it hits maxJobs. This is the "just give me the board" recipe.

{
  "searchSlugs": [],
  "maxJobs": 200
}

Scrape remote-only or skill-specific CutShort roles

CutShort groups listings into category pages at cutshort.io/jobs/<slug>. Pass those slugs directly to scrape only the pools you care about — each slug is fetched as its own page, and duplicates across slugs are removed by job_id before anything is charged.

{
  "searchSlugs": ["remote-golang-jobs", "remote-react-jobs"],
  "maxJobs": 100
}

Cheap test run before you scale up

Every record is charged individually on delivery, so a 5-job run costs the price of 5 records. Start here, look at the shape of the data, then raise maxJobs.

{
  "searchSlugs": [],
  "maxJobs": 5
}

Why use this CutShort scraper

CutShort is one of India's larger startup hiring platforms, and unlike most job boards it publishes a genuinely rich skills taxonomy — every listing carries an explicit skills array and a numeric experience band rather than free text buried in a description.

This actor reads CutShort's own public JSON search surface over plain HTTP. No browser, no login, no cookies. It returns one record per job with up to 15 fields: title, company, company size, locations array, remote flag, the full skills list, the salary band as published, minimum and maximum years of experience as integers, role types, and the description. Fields the source does not publish for a given job are omitted rather than returned as null or 0.

All CutShort scraper input options

Field	Type	Required	Default	Description
searchSlugs	array	no	[]	CutShort job-category slugs to scrape, e.g. 'remote-golang-jobs'. Leave empty to auto-discover categories from the jobs index.
maxJobs	integer	no	25	Maximum jobs to return across all pages.

What people use CutShort job data for

• India tech talent-demand analysis — the skills array is structured, so you can count demand per technology without NLP over job text.
• Salary banding by experience — experience_min_years and experience_max_years are numeric, which makes compensation-versus-seniority analysis a groupby rather than a parsing project.
• Startup hiring signals — a company opening several senior roles at once is a fundable-growth signal.
• Recruiter sourcing lists — filter to a skill plus an experience band to build a target list of companies actively hiring for it.
• Skills-gap research — compare the skills demanded on live listings against the skills your training or curriculum covers.

CutShort scraper FAQ

Is this scraping HTML?

No. It reads the same public JSON endpoint CutShort's own web app calls, which is why it needs no browser and costs a fraction of a browser-based scraper.

Are the skills normalised?

They are returned exactly as CutShort publishes them, including their own variants such as 'NodeJS (Node.js)'. Normalising them would be lossy and opinionated, so mapping is left to you.

Is salary always present?

No. Many Indian startup listings omit it. When CutShort publishes a band the field carries it as shown; when it does not, the field is absent rather than zero, so 'not disclosed' never looks like a real number.

Can I filter to remote-only roles?

Yes — every record carries a boolean remote flag, and role_types distinguishes full-time from contract and internship.

What does it cost to scrape CutShort jobs

Pay per event: one job-scraped event per delivered record, charged only after the record is validated and stored. Empty results, blocked pages and duplicates are never charged. Store discounts apply automatically on paid Apify plans.

Use CutShort job data in Claude, ChatGPT & any MCP agent

This actor runs as an MCP server, so an AI agent can call it directly:

https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=themineworks/cutshort-jobs-scraper

from apify_client import ApifyClient
client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("themineworks/cutshort-jobs-scraper").call(run_input={"searchSlugs": [], "maxJobs": 10})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)

Is scraping CutShort jobs legal

This actor collects only publicly available information — the same data any visitor can see without logging in. It does not access private or authenticated areas, does not attempt to bypass paywalls, and collects no personal data beyond what the source already publishes openly. You are responsible for using the output in line with the source site's terms and with the data protection law that applies to you.
