September 8, 2026 Nine months of Jobven, in two numbers

When I posted the v0.1 launch here in December, Jobven had 10,000 job postings from 150 employer career pages.

Today it is 1,291,389 postings from 5,479 companies.

The approach never changed: read employer career pages and applicant tracking systems directly, never job boards or repost networks. Most of the nine months went on the unglamorous half, detecting when a posting comes down so that a role which no longer exists stops being served.

    The 1.29M postings is impressive, but the real differentiator seems to be removing dead jobs. Are users actually finding Jobven more useful because stale listings disappear, or is dataset breadth still the main value?

December 1, 2025 Launching Jobven v0.1: Fresh job data collected directly from employers

I just pushed out the first public version of Jobven, a job data API that collects fresh job postings directly from employer websites.

This is still very early, but the core pipeline is live and working, so I figured it was time to share.

What I’m Building

Jobven monitors employer career pages and extracts live job postings straight from the source.
No job boards.
No repost chains.
No aggregator-of-aggregators loops.

Everything comes from employer-published career pages.

Right now, Jobven has:

  • 10,000+ job postings indexed

  • across 150 employer websites

  • updating continuously throughout the day

It is early, but it is real and improving every day.

Why I’m Building This

I run MapleStack, a Canadian job platform, and it became obvious that reliable job data is hard to get without building the infrastructure yourself.

Scraped job boards = stale.
Third-party APIs = inconsistent.
Repost networks = messy.

Indexing employer websites directly ended up being the only trustworthy source of truth.

At some point, I realized:
“If I need this, other job boards, recruiters, and data tools probably need it too.”

So Jobven became its own thing.

What the API Does Right Now

  • Fresh job postings collected from employer career pages

  • Structured fields (title, type, location, salary when available, etc.)

  • Enriched metadata like skills and experience

  • Cursor-based pagination

  • Full text search across titles, descriptions, and skills

Docs and quick start here: jobven.com

If you run a job board or build recruiting/data tools, I’d love feedback.
