💰 Structured salary data — machine-ready

Salary is returned as numeric fields — no regex required on your end:

Field	Type	Example
salaryMin	number | null	3500
salaryMax	number | null	5000
salaryCurrency	string | null	"EUR"
salaryPeriod	string | null	"monthly"

Most competing scrapers return salary as a raw string (e.g. "€3,500 – €5,000"), leaving the parsing to you. This scraper delivers numeric fields directly — ready for WHERE salaryMin > 50000 queries or salary distribution charts.

Pricing

$1.49 per 1,000 results — usage-based, no flat subscription.

Competitors charge $30–$49/month regardless of volume. With this scraper, scraping 500 results costs $0.75.

Known limitations

• Location and work-type filtering happen client-side — the keyword field is the primary server-side filter. For location-specific searches, include the city name in your keyword (e.g. keyword: "developer Tallinn").
• Apply URL is null for vacancies using CV.ee's built-in application modal. The vacancy url always works.
• Categories are numeric IDs in list-only mode; enable fetchDetails: true for human-readable category names.
• CV.ee primarily covers Estonia. International listings are limited.
