Attribution and data policy

Show "Data by Trawle" with a link, link to the employer's posting, and don't republish full descriptions.

Trawle's data is free to use in your apps and agents, on a few conditions.

Attribution

Wherever you show Trawle results to people, show "Data by Trawle" with a link to https://trawle.com or to the job's url. A small line under a list is enough:

HTML
<p>Data by <a href="https://trawle.com">Trawle</a></p>

Agents that answer in text should say where the jobs came from and include the links.

Every job has an applyUrl, the employer's own posting. Link to it so people read the full description and apply with the employer directly. Don't put your own application flow in between, and don't auto-apply on people's behalf.

Descriptions

The API returns a summary of each job, never the full description. Employers own their descriptions; read them at applyUrl. Don't scrape and republish them.

Use

  • Cache results for up to a day; the data only changes once a day anyway.
  • Employers who want their jobs removed can email hello@trawle.com.

Limits and keys

No key is needed today. API keys and OAuth for apps acting on someone's behalf are coming soon. The free tier is planned at about 1,000 requests a day, with attribution. Heavier use will need a key; we'll announce plans before limits apply.
