Job Listings API vs. TheirStack
Job Listings API team · Updated June 12, 2026
TheirStack and this API both surface job postings, but they are pointed at different jobs. TheirStack is built for sales and marketing: postings and technographic data combine into hiring signals and buying intent, so a sales team can find companies that just started hiring for a role their product serves. We are built for normalized job-postings data itself — read first-party from applicant tracking systems, on a self-serve free tier.
These are different tools for different needs. If you want lead-gen signals — who is hiring, with what tech stack, as a prospecting trigger — TheirStack is purpose-built for that and strong at it. If you want clean, deduplicated postings as data, the comparison below is where our focus shows.
| Dimension | TheirStack | Job Listings API |
|---|---|---|
| Primary purpose | Sales and marketing lead generation — hiring signals and buying intent for prospecting. | Normalized job-postings data for boards, market analysis, and apps. |
| What the data covers | Job postings plus technographics (technologies companies use) and company data. | Job postings only, with normalized role, seniority, and structured location. |
| Sourcing model | Aggregated from job boards across 195+ countries (per their site). | Read first-party from ATS feeds, retained with attribution to the original posting. |
| Standout strength | Technographic targeting — filtering companies by their tech stack alongside hiring activity. | Deduplication and taxonomy — a duplicate_cluster_id and normalized fields on every posting. |
| Refresh cadence | — | Re-read on a 30-minute cadence; updated_since delta sync on every plan. |
| Pricing | Self-serve credits-based, with a free tier (50 company / 200 API credits); App plans from $109/mo, API plans from $59/mo, per their pricing page. | Self-serve from $0 (free tier, 5,000 requests/mo, no card) to $999/mo, with an instant key. |
| Best fit | Sales and marketing teams using hiring as a buying signal. | Teams that want postings as clean, queryable data. |
