Fantastic.jobs is the closest like-for-like competitor to CleanJobData: both pull jobs from employer ATS platforms. Fantastic.jobs says it covers 200,000+ career sites across 58 ATS platforms and also includes job boards such as LinkedIn, Wellfound and Y Combinator, polls every ATS hourly, and prices by jobs and API requests per month. CleanJobData focuses on ATS platforms and company career sites only, prices by request, and returns one normalized schema with structured location IDs. If you need LinkedIn-sourced jobs or deep company enrichment, Fantastic.jobs covers more ground. If you want request-based pricing and a licence that allows a public job board, CleanJobData is simpler to model.

Choose Fantastic.jobs if you want the broadest coverage including LinkedIn and Wellfound listings, hourly polling and company enrichment. Choose CleanJobData if you want simple request-based pricing, structured location filtering and a licence written for job boards. Because the two meter usage differently (jobs returned versus requests made), compare them on your own query pattern rather than the headline price.

We saw Starter at $95 for 20,000 jobs and 10,000 requests, Pro-50k at $175, Pro-100k at $250, Pro-250k at $500 and Pro-500k at $900, with overage of $0.0025, $0.0020 and $0.0018 per job on the larger tiers. A job counts when it is returned by its New Jobs endpoints. Check its pricing page for current figures.
No. Alongside ATS career sites, its site says it includes job boards such as LinkedIn, Wellfound and Y Combinator, at over 10 million jobs per month across sources. CleanJobData covers ATS platforms and company career sites only.
Its documentation says the API is designed for recurring requests where results are stored in your own database. We couldn't retrieve its terms of service, so we can't say what it permits for redistribution or public display. Check before launching.
It depends on your usage. Fantastic.jobs meters jobs returned and requests; CleanJobData meters requests only, each returning up to 50 or 100 jobs. A sync-heavy product and a search-heavy product will cost differently on each, so estimate your monthly requests and jobs on both before choosing.
