AI APIs for HR Tech Platforms
One API suite for the whole recruitment pipeline: parse resumes into clean JSON, score candidates against job offers, expand skills taxonomies and generate job descriptions — without training a single model.

One Async Workflow for Every Endpoint
Integrate the pattern once and every HR endpoint works the same way.
1. Submit
POST a resume file or text payload. The API immediately returns a job ID and a status_url — no blocking requests in your web workers.
2. Poll
Poll the status_url or let an SDK handle it. Jobs run asynchronously in a processing queue, typically finishing in seconds.
3. Consume JSON
Get a documented, stable JSON schema per endpoint — candidate profiles, match scores or skill lists ready for your database.
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.

HR Tech APIs — Frequently Asked Questions
-
The HR suite covers the full candidate pipeline: Resume/CV Parsing to structured JSON, Resume-to-Job Match Scoring, Related Skills and Related Job Positions generators, and an AI Job Description Generator. Two utility databases — Skills Database API and Job Positions API — complement them with taxonomy lookups.
-
The Resume/CV Parsing API accepts PDF, DOC, DOCX and TXT files sent as multipart/form-data. It returns one consistent JSON structure with personal details, work history, education, skills, languages and certifications — regardless of the resume layout.
-
You submit a candidate resume file together with a job description text. The API returns a structured match score with an explanation, so your ATS can rank applicants automatically instead of relying on keyword filters.
-
Yes — that is the intended design. Parse the resume first, score it against your job description, expand candidate skills with the Related Skills endpoint for better search, and generate the job posting itself with the Job Description Generator. All endpoints share the same auth, job workflow and JSON conventions.
-
Processing is API-based and asynchronous; submitted documents are used only to produce your job result. SharpAPI is SOC 2 Type II certified — see the trust portal for the current security posture and policies.
-
All endpoints share one subscription starting at $50/month, metered in processed words. New accounts get a 14-day free trial with 100,000 words — enough to benchmark parsing quality on your own resumes.
