 How the API Workflow Works 
----------------------------

 AI relation endpoints use the async job pattern shared by all SharpAPI endpoints.

  ### 1. Submit

POST a skill or job position name with optional language and max\_quantity. You get a job ID and a status\_url back instantly.

  ### 2. Poll

Poll the status\_url (or let an SDK do it) while the job runs asynchronously — results typically land within seconds.

  ### 3. Consume JSON

Receive weighted, structured relations you can cache, index for search expansion or feed into your own skills graph.

 Call it from any stack
----------------------

Submit a job, poll the status URL, get structured JSON. SDKs available for PHP, Laravel, Python, Node.js, .NET and Flutter.

 cURL PHP Python Response 

 ```
curl -X POST "https://sharpapi.com/api/v1/hr/related_skills" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"content": "Laravel", "language": "English", "max_quantity": 6}'
```

 ```
$response = Http::withToken('YOUR_API_KEY')
    ->post('https://sharpapi.com/api/v1/hr/related_skills', {"content": "Laravel", "language": "English", "max_quantity": 6});

$statusUrl = $response->json('status_url'); // poll until status = success
```

 ```

    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"},
    json={"content": "Laravel", "language": "English", "max_quantity": 6},
)
status_url = response.json()["status_url"]  # poll until status == "success"

  Four Building Blocks for Your Taxonomy Layer 
----------------------------------------------

 Two curated databases for lookups, two AI endpoints for relations. Mix and match per feature.

### Skills Database API

Utility lookup over 73,000+ curated professional skills — the backbone for autocomplete, validation and normalization of user-entered skills.

 [ Endpoint details → ](https://sharpapi.com/en/catalog/utility/skills-database-api) 

### Job Positions API

Utility lookup over 16,000+ standardized job titles — map messy free-text roles onto clean, consistent position names.

 [ Endpoint details → ](https://sharpapi.com/en/catalog/utility/job-positions-api) 

### Related Skills Generator

Generates a list of related skills with their corresponding relevance scores.

 [ Endpoint details → ](https://sharpapi.com/en/catalog/ai/hr-tech/related-skills-generator) 

### Related Job Positions Generator

Generates a list of related job positions along with their relevance scores.

 What Products Build on This Taxonomy 
--------------------------------------

### Search Query Expansion

Expand candidate or job searches with related skills so "React" also surfaces "Next.js" profiles.

 query → query + related_skills[] 

### Profile Skill Suggestions

Suggest the next skills to add while a user edits their profile, weighted by relevance.

 user skills → suggested skills 

### Autocomplete &amp; Validation

Back form fields with the Skills and Job Positions databases for clean, deduplicated inputs.

 free text → canonical term 

### Job Title Normalization

Map "Sr. PHP Ninja" and "Senior PHP Developer" onto one standardized position for analytics.

 messy title → standard title 

### Career Path Features

Show adjacent roles and the skills needed to reach them using Related Job Positions output.

 position → next positions[] 

### Learning Recommendations

Recommend courses by diffing a learner's skills against the related-skills graph of their target role.

 gap analysis → course list 

 Why Teams Swap Enterprise Taxonomies for SharpAPI 
---------------------------------------------------

### Developer-Tool Pricing

From $50/month on the standard subscription — no annual data-license negotiations or per-seat fees.

### 73,000+ Skills, 16,000+ Titles

Curated databases large enough for production autocomplete, normalization and analytics features.

### Weighted Relations

Related skills and positions come with relevance weights, so ranking logic is a sort — not a model.

### AI Beyond Static Lists

Relations are generated by AI, so emerging skills resolve sensibly instead of falling off a fixed ontology.

### Structured JSON Everywhere

Stable, documented schemas across lookups and AI endpoints — one parser, four data sources.

### One Key, Whole Platform

The same API key also unlocks resume parsing, job matching and every other SharpAPI endpoint.

 Predictable pricing from $50/month

14-day free trial with 100,000 words included. No credit card required. 30-day money-back guarantee on your first payment.

 Skills Taxonomy API — Frequently Asked Questions 
--------------------------------------------------

    What is included in the Skills Taxonomy &amp; Job Titles API?         Four building blocks: the Skills Database API (73,000+ curated skills) and Job Positions API (16,000+ standardized job titles) for direct lookups, plus two AI endpoints — Related Skills and Related Job Positions — that return weighted, contextual suggestions for any input term.

   How is this an alternative to enterprise taxonomy products?         Enterprise skills ontologies are typically licensed per-seat or per-volume at five-to-six-figure annual contracts. SharpAPI gives you taxonomy lookups and AI-generated relations under one flat subscription starting at $50/month — the same key that unlocks every other SharpAPI endpoint.

   What does the Related Skills endpoint return?         You send a skill name (for example "Laravel") and get back a JSON list of related skills, each with a relevance weight — ideal for expanding search queries, suggesting profile skills or building skill graphs. Related Job Positions works the same way for role names.

   Can I use the data for autocomplete and normalization?         Yes. The Skills and Job Positions databases are utility APIs designed for exactly that: powering autocomplete fields, validating free-text input and mapping messy user-entered titles onto standardized ones.

   Is the taxonomy data multilingual?         The AI relation endpoints accept a language parameter, so you can request related skills and positions in the language of your product. Database lookups return standardized English terms you can localize on your side.

   How much does it cost?         Everything ships in the standard SharpAPI subscription from $50/month, metered in processed words. The 14-day free trial with 100,000 words lets you evaluate coverage against your existing taxonomy before committing.
