ABOUT HEADCOUNT LABS

Building a jobs data API
for useful work.

Headcount Labs is developing a jobs data API for products and research that need to search, compare, or understand public job postings.

Start with what a
posting can tell you.

A job posting describes a role, its stated requirements, and where an employer says the work can happen.

That context can help a job platform shape search, a recruiting tool review accounts, or a researcher compare roles across a defined market. The source link matters because it lets someone check the original details.

Headcount Labs is in development. We’re using conversations with product teams to define the source scope, fields, and delivery needs that should be evaluated first.

HOW WE’RE APPROACHING THE PRODUCT

Make the record useful.

01

Keep role detail

Titles are easier to interpret when a product can also inspect the description and workplace context.

02

Keep the source visible

A posting link helps researchers and product users verify the information they see.

03

Design for missing fields

Salary and other details may be absent. The data model should make that visible instead of guessing.
