Good to know

• Each role is searched in each location; jobs are unique by ID across the run. A search page lists 20 startups with up to three of their matching jobs each, the way Wellfound shows them; a startup...
• salaryMin, salaryMax and salaryCurrency come from the compensation text (a range such as $142k to $187k); equityMin and equityMax are percent, and equityOffered is false where the posting says no...
• workplace is remote, onsite or onsite or remote, as the posting states it (or as its places say: a job that lists Remote or accepts remote places is open to remote); wfhFlexible marks onsite jobs...
• A role or location Wellfound does not know is named in the log and skipped; a search is never widened to other places.

FAQ

What data does the Wellfound Jobs Scraper return?

Each result is one row in an Apify dataset. Fields include title, company, locations, workplace, salaryMin, salaryMax, salaryCurrency, equityMin, and more. The table above shows every field with an example value.

How do I use the Wellfound Jobs Scraper from Python?

Install the apify-client package, create a client with your Apify API token, call the Actor v0iddo/wellfound-jobs-scraper with an input like the one above, and read the rows from the run's dataset. The Python snippet above does exactly that.

Can I use it without writing code?

Yes. Open the Actor page on Apify, fill in the input form (an example is already filled in), press Start, and download the results as JSON, CSV, Excel or HTML. You can also schedule runs there.

How much does it cost?

$0.50 per 1,000 results. You pay per result row. There is no separate charge per run. Higher Apify plans pay less per result, down to $0.35 per 1,000. A new Apify account gets $5 of platform credit every month.

How do I limit the number of results?

Set the maxItems input field to the number of results you need; the run stops there, so it also caps the cost of one run. You can also set a maximum cost for a run in the run options on Apify, and the run stops when it is reached.

Can I send the results to Google Sheets, Make, Zapier or n8n?

Yes. Apify datasets connect to Google Sheets, Slack, Make, Zapier and n8n, and a webhook can call your own service when a run finishes. You can also export the dataset as JSON, CSV or Excel.
