Direct links to apply

Why Headcount Labs
One record per opening
The same job posted on five boards comes back once, with all five source links kept. Your users never see the same role twice.
Only what changed
The changes feed returns jobs added, updated or closed since your last sync, so a daily refresh is a few calls, not a full re-download.
Agent-ready
Connect Claude, Codex or Cursor through MCP and let your agent query jobs while it builds or runs your product.
How it works
Ask your agent in plain words. It calls Headcount Labs through MCP, or your code calls the same filters over the REST API.
Refresh my app every day with the latest data analyst jobs in New York City.
count_jobs{ filters: { title: "data analyst", city: "New York", state: "NY", active: true } }
search_jobs{ filters: { title: "data analyst", city: "New York", state: "NY", updated_since: "2026-10-06" }, sort: "updated", limit: 25 }
Done. Every morning a job now pulls the NYC data analyst jobs added or changed since the last run, adds the new ones to your
jobs table and marks closed ones inactive.Example conversation.
