Hiring Signal Tracker: Greenhouse, Lever & Ashby Job Changes

$4 per 1,000 hiring events ($2.50 on the Gold tier) plus $0.50 per 1,000 board checks, no API key, no start fee. Every event is delivered once.

Give it the job boards of the companies you care about, hosted on Greenhouse, Lever, or Ashby, and run it on a schedule. Each run compares every board with what it saw last time and delivers one row per change: a job opened, a job closed (filled or pulled), a job reposted with a new date, or a job whose title, department, or location changed. Each board also gets a summary row with its open count, this run's changes, jobs opened and closed in the last 7 and 30 days, the median days open, and how many postings have been open more than 90 days.

Built on the three ATS vendors' official public job-board APIs, the same endpoints the companies' own career pages read. No login, no scraping of HTML, no keys.

What you get

Event rows (kind: "event"):

{
  "kind": "event",
  "eventType": "opened",
  "board": "greenhouse:stripe",
  "ats": "greenhouse",
  "boardToken": "stripe",
  "company": "Stripe",
  "boardUrl": "https://job-boards.greenhouse.io/stripe",
  "jobId": "8172508",
  "title": "Abuse Investigator",
  "department": "Risk",
  "team": null,
  "location": "Dublin",
  "locations": ["Dublin"],
  "workplaceType": null,
  "employmentType": null,
  "seniority": "mid",
  "publishedAt": "2026-09-03T17:32:53.000Z",
  "firstSeen": "2026-09-10T12:00:00.000Z",
  "daysOpen": 0,
  "previous": null,
  "baseline": false,
  "url": "https://stripe.com/jobs/search?gh_jid=8172508",
  "observedAt": "2026-09-10T12:00:00.000Z",
  "billedAs": "job-event"
}

eventType is opened, closed, reposted, or changed. For changed, previous holds the old title, department, or location; for reposted, the old posting date; for closed, when the job was last seen. daysOpen counts from when the tracker first saw the job (on a board's first check, from the posting date). seniority is a rule-based read of the title: intern, junior, mid, senior, staff, principal, manager, director, vp, executive.

Board rows (kind: "board"), one per board per run:

{
  "kind": "board",
  "board": "lever:palantir",
  "company": "palantir",
  "status": "ok",
  "openCount": 310,
  "opened": 4,
  "closed": 2,
  "reposted": 0,
  "changed": 1,
  "eventsDelivered": 7,
  "eventsFiltered": 0,
  "opened7d": 11,
  "opened30d": 46,
  "closed7d": 9,
  "closed30d": 38,
  "ghostJobs": 27,
  "medianDaysOpen": 41.5,
  "checkedAt": "2026-09-10T12:00:00.000Z",
  "previousCheckAt": "2026-09-09T12:00:00.000Z",
  "billedAs": "board-check"
}

status is ok, baseline (first check, state recorded, no events yet), not-found (wrong token), error, or invalid (unrecognised board string). Only ok and baseline checks are billed. One summary row (kind: "summary", free) totals everything and says whether the run hit your spending cap.

Input

Field	What it does
Job boards to watch	One per line: greenhouse:stripe, lever:palantir, ashby:notion, or the board URL (https://job-boards.greenhouse.io/stripe, https://jobs.lever.co/palantir, https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/notion). The token is the last part of the company's public job-board URL.
Events to deliver	Any of opened, closed, reposted, changed. Empty means all.
Title keywords, Departments, Locations	Only jobs matching any of the words or phrases, case-insensitive. Filters apply to events; the board summary always covers the whole board.
Deliver the current jobs on first check	Off by default: the first check of a board records its jobs and delivers a free board row; events begin with the second check. On: current jobs are delivered as opened events marked baseline.
Snapshot name	Which memory this watchlist uses, one record per board in a key-value store named hiring-signals-watchlist-<name>. Give each schedule its own name.
Max events per run	Default 2,000. Boards whose events did not fit are re-detected next run.
Proxy	Normally off.

Examples:

Pricing

Event	Free	Bronze	Silver	Gold and above
Hiring event	$0.004	$0.0036	$0.003	$0.0025
Board check	$0.0005	$0.00045	$0.0004	$0.0003

A daily watchlist of 200 boards costs about $0.10 a day in checks. A typical mid-size board changes two to five jobs a day, so 200 boards produce around 600 events a day at most, $2.40 on the free tier, and far fewer with a keyword or department filter. The first check of each board is a single board-check fee; nothing else is billed until something changes. The summary row is free, and so are boards that could not be read. Set a maximum total charge on the run to cap spend; the Actor stops cleanly when it is reached, never delivers rows it could not bill, and does not advance a board's memory until its events have been delivered, so nothing is lost.

Use cases

• Sales triggers: a company opening its first sales, RevOps, or security role is buying tools for it; pipe opened events with title keywords into Clay, HubSpot, or Slack.
• Recruiting and staffing: which target accounts opened roles in your specialty this week, and which roles closed (a filled req means a new hire to congratulate, or a pulled req means a freeze).
• Competitive intelligence: hiring velocity by department across competitors, from the board rows, without reading a single posting.
• Job seekers and career coaches: a personal watchlist of dream companies, filtered to the roles that matter, as they appear.
• AI agents: ask "which companies on my list opened engineering manager roles this week" through the Apify MCP server.

Data source and limits

• Greenhouse (boards-api.greenhouse.io), Lever (api.lever.co/v0/postings), and Ashby (api.ashbyhq.com/posting-api) publish every company's public job board as JSON for embedding in career sites; the Actor reads those endpoints with a declared User-Agent and spaces requests per vendor (Lever's robots policy asks for one request a second). Job descriptions are not stored.
• Only public postings are visible: internal or unlisted jobs never appear. Companies on other ATS vendors (Workday, iCIMS, SmartRecruiters, Workable) are not supported yet; the board row says invalid for anything else.
• A closed event means the posting left the public board; the Actor cannot tell a filled role from a withdrawn one.
• Boards are compared between runs, so the cadence you schedule is the resolution you get. Daily is typical; hourly works.
• Rows are about companies and their open roles. No personal data is collected.
• At the end of each run the Actor reports run counts (rows delivered, events charged, duration, status) to its maintainer's dashboard. It never sends your input, your results, or anything about your account.
