Jobs Intelligence

Structured hiring intelligence for AI agents. Seven GET APIs on api.exende.dev, paid per request with x402. No API keys or subscriptions are required for individual x402 requests.

Updated October 19, 2026

Start with an unpaid request

Send a valid GET request to inspect its price and payment requirements. This curl command contains no payment authorization and spends no funds. HTTP 402 is the expected first response.

Product overviewOpenAPI & response schemas

Pay through x402

Use an x402 v2 client supporting exact USDC payments on Base Mainnet (eip155:8453) through EIP-3009. Read the current PAYMENT-REQUIRED challenge and verify its resource, amount, asset, network, and recipient. Sign a fresh authorization and repeat the exact request with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE. Successful settlement returns HTTP 200, the data, and PAYMENT-RESPONSE.

Permit2 is not supported for these routes. Invalid parameters are rejected before payment. A payment proof can be used only once; protect it as a sensitive authorization. If an outcome is ambiguous, reconcile the payment receipt before authorizing another payment. EIP-3009 signs payment details; it does not sign URL query parameters.

These routes share Exende’s existing Callback service and payment recipient. Use the live challenge for authoritative requirements. See the x402 payment guide.

Company Hiring Intelligence

GET /v1/jobs/company

Understand one company’s observed hiring activity, departments, and requested skills.

Parameters: company (required domain), period (7d).

Returns: Company name and domain, active and engineering job counts where coverage supports them, sample counts, top departments, skills, and freshness.

Hiring Signals

GET /v1/jobs/signals

Find up to five companies showing observed hiring activity, with deterministic scores and supporting evidence.

Parameters: role, location, department, period (7d), limit (1–5).

Returns: Company context, observed active and recently observed jobs, activity score, supporting evidence, and observation period. Scores describe observed activity, not company growth.

Company Changes

GET /v1/jobs/changes

Compare a company’s observed hiring catalogue across seven days when sufficient history exists.

Parameters: company (required domain), period (7d).

Returns: Jobs entering or leaving the observed active catalogue, net observed change, and comparison timestamps. A disappearing listing does not prove a hire. Insufficient history returns HTTP 422.

Coverage, freshness & methodology

Every response includes data and meta with observation period, freshness, coverage, methodology, and limitations. Results represent Exende’s monitored catalogue, not the entire labour market. Generation time is calculation time; source observation timestamps can be older.

Current queries inspect up to 10,000 recent active jobs, scoped to a company first when supplied. Filters apply within that cohort. Check meta.coverage.sampled: incomplete cohorts expose sample counts and return null for unsupported full totals. Older matching jobs may be omitted.

The hiring activity score is round(100 × recently_observed_jobs / observed_sample_jobs, 2), or zero for an empty sample. Recent jobs are active matching jobs first observed within seven days. This measures observed activity, not company growth; adding a monitored source can affect it.

Historical comparisons require sufficient boundary observations and a complete cohort of at most 5,000 jobs. Company Changes returns HTTP 422 when this is unavailable. Trends and Report retain current statistics and label the history section unavailable. A disappearing job does not prove a hire. Skills use existing current structured associations and do not reconstruct historical skill demand.

All calculations use the existing Jobs data source and deterministic code. No endpoint performs AI inference.

Filters & response limits

  • Search: 1–10 jobs, default 10. Signals: 1–5 companies, default five. Other ranked lists are bounded to 10 items; report company statistics to five.
  • The only supported period is 7d. Company and Changes require a company domain; use a company present in the monitored catalogue. The stripe.com examples were verified on October 19, 2026.
  • Keyword: 2–120 characters. Role, location, and department: 2–80 characters. Text filters require one to eight words of at least two characters.
  • Company is an ASCII domain. Role matches title; location matches source text; department matches the recorded value without case sensitivity. Industry is unsupported.
  • remote=true selects remote jobs; remote=false selects known on-site jobs, excluding hybrid and unknown. Employment types: full_time, part_time, contract, temporary, internship, unknown.
  • Unknown or duplicate parameters, arbitrary SQL, pagination, and export requests are rejected.
  • Default admission limits: 30 requests/minute per IP, 10/minute per verified payer, 50/day per payer, and 500/day across the service. Admitted failures count toward daily limits. Distributed provider limits may be locally enforced.
  • Eight-second upstream budget and 128 KiB response ceiling. Public data responses use private/no-store; underlying calculations may be cached for five minutes. Cached calculations still require a new verified payment.

Error responses

Errors use { "error": { "code", "message", "request_id" } }. Inspect the error code and payment receipt; do not automatically pay again after an ambiguous response.
