API.SH vs the official Instahyre API
Instahyre does not offer an open public API for job data. Its integrations are built for employers' applicant tracking systems (such as Lever and Freshteam) to move candidates, and need an employer account. API.SH returns public job ads and employer profiles as JSON without one.
Rather than writing an Instahyre scraper or running Apify actors, use one API.SH key with a fixed price per call and the same JSON shape as other job boards.
Instahyre API questions
What Instahyre data can I get?+
Job search with the site's filters and facet counts (/instahyre/v1/search), one job ad with employer, locations, experience range, skills and full description (/instahyre/v1/job), and an employer profile with tech stack, benefits, interview process, ratings and open jobs (/instahyre/v1/company).
How much does the Instahyre API cost?+
Every Instahyre endpoint costs 1 credit per call. On a monthly plan 1,000 credits cost $1 (Starter is $50/month for 50,000 credits). Pay-as-you-go is $2 per 1,000 credits, with top-ups from $15 that never expire.
Is there a free trial?+
Yes. Every account gets 1,000 free credits every month. That is 1,000 calls to /instahyre/v1/company at 1 credit each.
Is there an official Instahyre API?+
Not for job data. Instahyre's API is for ATS integrations on employer accounts. API.SH reads public Instahyre pages and returns them as JSON.
Do I need a Instahyre account or login?+
No. API.SH reads public Instahyre pages only. No endpoint uses a login, cookies or anyone's account.
Is there a free Instahyre API?+
You can try API.SH for free: every account gets 1,000 free credits each month, enough to test search, job and company calls before paying.
Can I track which companies are hiring on Instahyre?+
Yes. Search results include the employer's name, size and founding year, and the facets list top companies and locations. Run the same search on a schedule to see who is adding roles.
How do I get started?+
