Jooble API vs Remote OK API for AI agents
Jooble API is a REST API that lets site owners take Jooble job search results and show them on their own website. Remote OK API is a public JSON feed of the jobs posted on the Remote OK remote job board.
The short answer
- Jooble API: Embedding Jooble search results in your own site design for a single country.
- Remote OK API: The simplest no-key feed of remote tech and startup jobs for a site that links back to Remote OK.
Side by side
| Jooble API | Remote OK API | |
|---|---|---|
| Searches | Jooble's aggregated job search, one country per key (a jooble.org key covers US listings; other countries use their regional domain). | Remote OK's own remote job board only. |
| Returns | JSON with totalCount and jobs, each with id, title, location, snippet, salary, source, type, link, company and updated. | JSON array of jobs with id, slug, company, position, tags, location, salary_min, salary_max, url, apply_url, date, epoch, description and logo fields. |
| Before the first call | Fill in a form (name, position, email, website, phone) to get a key; each country domain needs its own key, sent in the URL path of a POST. | Nothing: no key or sign-up. The feed at remoteok.com/api answers without one. |
| Free | The free plan has a lifetime limit of 500 requests per key (not monthly). | No key needed, and its pages state no price |
| Acting on a result | link is the job posting on Jooble. | Both url and apply_url point to the job page on remoteok.com, not to the employer. |
| Limits on keeping or showing results | Not stated on its pages | Must link back (followed, not nofollow) to the Remote OK URL and name Remote OK as source, or access is suspended; don't use the Remote OK logo without written permission. |
| Coverage | Per-country keys via Jooble's regional domains (e.g. jooble.org for the US, uk.jooble.org, de.jooble.org). | Remote jobs; location is free text (e.g. 'Remote', 'US, UK, Canada, Australia + 35 other countries'). |
| MCP server | No official server listed | No official server listed |
