CleanJobData vs TheirStack — Job Search API or Company Intelligence?

Competitor details last checked . Prices, limits and terms change, so confirm on TheirStack's site before you decide.

TheirStack tracks jobs and the technologies companies use, and sells access mainly for lead generation and market intelligence. It says it covers 251 million jobs from over 195 countries and 33,000 technologies, charges one credit per job returned through its API, and lets you filter by technology slugs, company attributes and dates. CleanJobData is narrower: a job search API over employer ATS and career-site data, with structured location filtering, salary and experience level, priced per request. If you want to find companies by what they hire for and use, TheirStack is built for that. If you want to power a job board or job search feature, CleanJobData is the more direct fit.

Verdict

If your goal is finding companies by the technologies they use and hire for, TheirStack is purpose-built for that and CleanJobData isn't. If your goal is a job board, alerts or search feature, CleanJobData's request-based pricing and job-focused filters are the simpler fit. Since TheirStack charges per job returned, a product that re-reads the same listings will use credits faster than one that syncs once and polls for changes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does TheirStack's credit pricing work?

Its API charges 1 credit per job returned and 3 per company lookup. We saw monthly API plans from $49 for 1,500 credits up to $5,500 for 5,000,000, plus one-time credit packs, and credits that roll over for 12 months. Plans change, so check its pricing page.

Are TheirStack apply links direct to the employer?

Its job objects include final_url and source_url fields, plus an easy_apply flag. We couldn't confirm that final_url is always the employer's own page, so test a sample if direct apply links matter to your product.

Can I store TheirStack data and show it on a public site?

We couldn't retrieve TheirStack's terms of service, so we can't say. Read them or ask the vendor before building a public product on the data.

Does CleanJobData filter by technology stack?

No. CleanJobData filters by title and keywords, location, remote type, salary, experience level, employment type, company and freshness. For technology-based filtering across companies, TheirStack is designed for that.

What does a CleanJobData query look like?

GET https://api.cleanjobdata.com/jobs?title=engineer&remote=true with an Authorization: Bearer header. Responses are JSON with structured location, salary, experience level and company data. See the docs for the full filter list.
