Why Headcount Labs

Pay from the source

Pay transparency laws mean more employers publish ranges. You get them as posted, alongside the job they belong to.

Skills in full context

Full descriptions show the certifications, tools and experience each employer asks for, ready to compare side by side.

Watch your competitors

Filter by company to see every role a competitor has open, and how long each one stays up.

Plan where to hire

Count openings for a role by city and state to see where demand is crowded and where it’s easier to hire.

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.
