Arbeitnow's job board API is free and needs no API key. It focuses on Europe and Germany, has a separate UK endpoint, draws from ATS platforms such as Greenhouse, SmartRecruiters, Join, Teamtailor, Recruitee and Comeet, and says jobs are updated every hour. It supports remote and visa sponsorship filters. For a hobby project or a quick European feed it is a good starting point. The limits are in the details: its responses ask for a link back and say not to abuse the API, its site terms include language restricting commercial use, public display and mirroring, and its filtering is basic. CleanJobData is a global API with structured filters and published commercial terms.

Arbeitnow is a handy free source for European jobs when you want something running in minutes and can accept its attribution and usage terms. If you need worldwide coverage, structured filtering, or clear terms for a product with real users, CleanJobData is the better fit. Whichever you choose, read Arbeitnow's terms and confirm with its owner before relying on it commercially.
No. Its blog says the API requires no API key, and the response includes a note that it is a free public API, asks you not to abuse it, and asks for a link back.
We saw an x-ratelimit-limit header of 50 on a response, but no time window is stated and we couldn't read the full docs, which are on Postman. Treat the limit as unverified and build in caching.
The API response says you agree to the terms on Arbeitnow.com, and those site terms, as summarized, include a licence that prohibits commercial use, public display and mirroring the materials on another server. Whether that applies to the API isn't spelled out. Ask Arbeitnow before building a product on it.
Its blog says it aggregates jobs from ATS platforms such as Greenhouse, SmartRecruiters, Join, Teamtailor, Recruitee and Comeet, focused on Europe, with a UK endpoint launched in 2026.
