MCP
Search job postings, company technographics, and hiring data directly from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. TheirStack's MCP server gives AI assistants access to millions of jobs and tech stack data.
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) lets AI assistants call TheirStack tools directly — search jobs, find companies, explore tech stacks, and more — without leaving your chat.
Connect your AI client to the TheirStack MCP server at https://api.theirstack.com/mcp and start asking questions like:
- "Find companies using Snowflake in Germany with 100+ employees"
- "Show me senior engineering jobs at Series B startups"
- "What technologies does Stripe use?"
