# Choose your path

> Which BetterJobs path fits how I work: no-code, developer, AI agent, data team, recruiter, or migrating from another provider?

Source: https://docs.betterjobs.cc/getting-started/choose-your-path/

Every path calls the same API and pays the same way: 1 credit per unique job returned. Pick the one that matches how you work, and read its pages in order.

## Clay and no-code

You build lists in Clay, n8n, Make, Zapier or Google Sheets and do not want to write code. Each tool calls BetterJobs through its generic HTTP request module.

1. [Clay](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/integrations/clay.md): add BetterJobs as an HTTP API column.
2. [n8n](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/integrations/n8n.md), [Make](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/integrations/make.md), [Zapier](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/integrations/zapier.md) or [Google Sheets](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/integrations/google-sheets.md).
3. [Credits and billing](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/concepts/credits-and-billing.md): what a 1,000-row table costs.
4. [Filters](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/platform/filters.md): every field you can put in the request body.

## Developer

You call the REST API from your own backend.

1. [Quickstart](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/getting-started/quickstart.md): first response from the keyless sandbox.
2. [Authentication](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/getting-started/authentication.md): live and test keys.
3. [The waterfall](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/concepts/waterfall.md): strategies, budget caps and partial results.
4. [Filters](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/platform/filters.md), [Pagination](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/platform/pagination.md) and [Errors](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/platform/errors.md).
5. [Idempotency](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/platform/idempotency.md) and [Rate limits](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/platform/rate-limits.md): safe retries.
6. [API reference](/api/) and [OpenAPI and SDKs](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/platform/openapi-and-sdks.md).

## AI agent builder

You want Claude, Cursor or your own agent to search jobs and check hiring.

1. [MCP server](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/agents/mcp-server.md): connect a client, see each tool’s cost.
2. [Agent quickstart](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/agents/agent-quickstart.md): one prompt that wires BetterJobs into your repo.
3. [llms.txt and Markdown](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/agents/llms-txt.md): let agents read these docs cheaply.
4. [Credits and billing](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/concepts/credits-and-billing.md): why agents should estimate before they search.

> MCP is included from the Growth plan.

## Data team

You load job data into a warehouse and keep it current.

1. [Async searches](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/platform/async-searches.md): up to 10,000 jobs per search.
2. [Sync patterns](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/guides/sync-patterns.md): backfill, daily upsert, closed jobs.
3. [Canonical jobs](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/concepts/canonical-jobs.md): the stable `id` to dedup on.
4. [Field dictionary](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/data/field-dictionary.md) and [Taxonomies](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/data/taxonomies.md).
5. [Samples](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/data/samples.md): JSON and CSV files to test your loader, no signup.
6. [Freshness and lifecycle](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/concepts/freshness-and-lifecycle.md): the timestamps and when a job closes.

## Recruiter

You look for companies that are hiring for roles you fill, and want to know when that changes.

1. [Find companies hiring](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/guides/find-companies-hiring.md): search a role, group by company.
2. [Detect hiring changes](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/guides/detect-hiring-changes.md): watch companies and act on events.
3. [Companies](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/data/companies.md): what `is_hiring` and `hiring_pulse` mean.
4. [Google Sheets](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/integrations/google-sheets.md): run it from a spreadsheet.

## Coming from another provider

You already use one of the partner providers and want one key for all of them.

- [Migrate from TheirStack](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/guides/migrate-from-theirstack.md)
- [Migrate from Coresignal](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/guides/migrate-from-coresignal.md)
- [Migrate from Techmap](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/guides/migrate-from-techmap.md)
- [Migrate from JobsPipe](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/guides/migrate-from-jobspipe.md)

## Evaluating BetterJobs

You want to know if it fits before you build.

- [Providers](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/providers.md): what each source brings, in its own words.
- [When not to use BetterJobs](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/resources/when-not-to-use.md)
- [Licensing](https://docs.betterjobs.cc/concepts/licensing.md): what you may display and resell.
