FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do B2B SaaS companies use the job postings API?

Rank target accounts by the roles they are hiring for, so reps work accounts where tooling and vendor decisions are live. Search live and historical job postings by company, title and location to spot hiring signals. This page walks through 3 workflows with the exact steps.

What does the job postings API cost for B2B SaaS companies?

Job postings API: 2 credits per request, charged whether or not data comes back. 1,000 job search requests use 2,000 credits: about $27 of Starter credits month to month, or about $20 on Pro with yearly billing. Self-serve plans are Starter, Growth, Pro and Scale. See plans and prices

Which B2B SaaS workflows use the job postings API?

Score accounts on hiring momentum from job postings, alert account owners when a customer posts a job naming a competitor and track competitors' hiring by function and location. Each is on this page with its trigger, steps and outcome.

How do I prioritize accounts by hiring velocity?

Compute posting velocity and role mix vs. last period. Write a hiring-momentum score to the account and trigger plays above threshold.

What inputs does it take and what does it return?

You send competitor domains, competitor product names and customer domains. You get back open roles by function, account with matching posting, date_featured and hiring momentum score, from POST /job_search/, as JSON.

Am I charged when nothing is found?

Yes. Job postings API is charged per request, whether or not data comes back. Only mobile and email lookups are free when nothing is found, so try your inputs on a small run before you scale.

Can B2B SaaS companies test the job postings API for free?

Yes. Create a free account at app.forager.ai: it comes with $5 in free credits and an API key, and there is no credit card to sign up. Run it on records you already know, or book a demo and send us a list: we run it and show you what we find.

Can job postings warn me that a customer is moving to a competitor?

Inside a CRM add-on or customer-success tool, warn the account owner when a customer advertises a role that asks for experience with a competitor's product, an early churn or displacement signal. Account owners hear about a possible switch while there is still time to act, instead of at renewal.

How accurate is Forager data?

The test that counts is your own: send a list of profiles you care about. We run it and show you what we find, number by number, so you can measure hit rate and connect rate yourself.

How is a job postings API different from scraping job boards?

Scraping job boards means maintaining a crawler per site and cleaning duplicates. A job postings API lets you search live and historical postings by company, title and location in one call and use hiring as a signal in your product.

Where can I use Forager job postings API?

Native in Clay, partner-built in Deepline and called through the API from your own code. Everything else connects through the REST API with one API key.

Do I need a subscription?

Not to test: a free account comes with $5 in credits. To keep using job postings API, choose a monthly or yearly plan. Monthly plans cancel anytime and unused credits roll over; yearly plans grant all credits upfront and cost 10% less. Larger volumes are agreed with our team.
