Does the Orbyt Intelligence API require authentication?

How many roles and cities does the Orbyt salary data cover?

The Orbyt Intelligence API covers 3445 roles across 81 U.S. cities, with annual history and projections through 2030.

What is the difference between the Orbyt API and the Intelligence API?

The Orbyt API lets you build with your own Orbyt data: jobs, contacts, pipeline, calendar, suggestions, and activities. It requires a bearer token and has 22 endpoints. The Intelligence API is a public compensation dataset with 3,500+ roles and 81 U.S. cities. All tiers require a Bearer token, but the free account is free to create.

Does Orbyt support MCP (Model Context Protocol)?

Yes. Both APIs are MCP-native and ship with manifest files at /mcp.json (Orbyt API) and /mcp-intelligence.json (Intelligence API). Step-by-step integration guides are available for Claude Desktop, ChatGPT GPT Actions, OpenClaw, and Zapier.

How do I make my first call to the Orbyt Intelligence API?

Try the demo endpoint: curl "https://www.orbytjobs.ai/api/v1/intelligence/salaries/demo?role=ai-engineer". For full API access, create a free account to get a Bearer token. The response includes median compensation, percentile ranges, citation, and assumptions.
