Features

Cost estimate

Full (`fetchDetails: true`)	~$0.50–0.80	~104 requests per 100 jobs

No proxy cost — datacenter IPs work without restrictions.

Pricing: $1.49 per 1,000 results (~87% margin at median run cost)

Technical notes

Architecture

List pages: GET /search/?keywords=&pageSize=25&startIndex=N → Cheerio HTML parsing
Detail pages: GET /job/{id}/{slug} → <script type="application/ld+json"> JSON-LD extraction
Pagination: offset-based, startIndex increments by pageSize

Why not REST/GraphQL?

No public API found. The JS bundle only contains internal Vue component endpoints. No Algolia, no __NEXT_DATA__, no GraphQL. Detail-page JSON-LD provides equivalent structured richness with zero API-fragility risk.

Robots.txt compliance

Only /job/feedback/ and /enhanced/fp/ are disallowed. All search and job detail paths are permitted.

Rate limiting

Polite delays built in: 300ms between list pages, 200ms between detail batches. No observed rate limiting at concurrency=5.
