Why builders are switching
We built Zooq because nothing on the market respects developer time. You either sign a contract, install a Chrome extension, or hand over your LinkedIn account to a black-box scraper. We do none of that.
Your LinkedIn stays your LinkedIn
No cookies, no logins, no extensions. Your account never touches our infrastructure. If LinkedIn changes their layout tomorrow, your scripts don't break.
Real credit cards, real invoices
Pay with Visa, Mastercard, Amex. Tax-compliant receipts you can hand to your accountant. No crypto, no wire transfers, no demo calls.
A human reads your tickets
Paid tiers get tier-3 human support. We reply within 24h. No chatbot wall, no first-tier triage purgatory.
Built for production
The infrastructure under Zooq is the same kind AI builders run their own products on.
Sub-500ms responses
Most endpoints return in under half a second. No browser spin-up, no fake login delays.
Multi-region
Requests routed through redundant infrastructure. Automatic failover. No single point of failure.
Encrypted everywhere
TLS in transit. Encrypted at rest. SHA-256-hashed API keys. We literally cannot read your key.
Zero data retention
Responses pass through our proxy. We log request metadata, never the payload. Your queries stay yours.
What you can fetch
52 endpoints across 10 categories. Profiles, companies, jobs, search, posts. Clean, normalized JSON, every time.
Real-world use cases
What people are already building on top of Zooq.
AI lead-gen agents
Agent picks a target list, calls Zooq for profile + company enrichment, scores each lead, drafts a personalized message, schedules a send. No browser automation, no LinkedIn account at risk.
// Agent enriches a lead before drafting outreach
const profile = await zooq.profile.full({ username: "satyanadella" });
const companies = await zooq.search.companies({ keyword: profile.data.company });
return scoreAndDraft(profile, companies);Recruiting & sourcing
Pull skills, experience, and education for every candidate in your pipeline. Verify titles, identify mutual connections to your team, surface passive candidates by skill graph.
// Verify candidate background
const skills = await zooq.profile.skills({ urn });
const experience = await zooq.profile.fullExperience({ urn });
const similar = await zooq.profile.similar({ urn });Sales intelligence
Enrich every CRM record with current title, employer, recent posts, and company growth signals. Auto-trigger plays when a target switches jobs or their company hires.
// Job-change detection workflow
const post = await zooq.posts.featured({ urn });
const newRole = parseHeadline(post.data);
if (newRole.changed) triggerPlay(account, "job-change");Market research & talent analytics
Track hiring velocity across companies, monitor employment trends by skill or geography, build datasets without operating a scraping farm.
// Hiring velocity by company
const jobs = await zooq.companies.jobs({ companyIDs: "..." });
const trend = bucketByMonth(jobs.data);
return chartTrend(trend);Drop Zooq into Claude Desktop or Cursor in 30 seconds.
Zooq is a Model Context Protocol server. Add one line to your config and your agent gets five LinkedIn data tools. Same key, same billing, same refund-on-failure as REST.

}FAQ
Do I need to connect my LinkedIn account?
No. That's the whole point. Zooq works without ever touching your LinkedIn login. No cookies, no Chrome extension, no browser automation. Your account is never at risk.
Is this legal?
Zooq returns publicly available professional data. Under U.S. case law (hiQ Labs v. LinkedIn, 2022; Meta v. Bright Data, 2024), accessing publicly available data is generally permitted. You remain responsible for using the data in compliance with the laws applicable to you (GDPR, CASL, CAN-SPAM, etc.). Full posture on /trust.
What data is available?
Profiles (basic + full), work experience, education, skills, certifications, companies (jobs, employees, similar, posts), search across people / companies / jobs / posts, and lookups (geos, skills, industries). 52 endpoints total.
How does pricing work?
Choose between a monthly subscription for predictable billing, or pay-as-you-go credit packs starting at $0.99. The larger the pack or plan, the lower your price-per-call — bulk discounts kick in automatically. Start with 300 free credits on signup, no card required.
What payment methods do you accept?
Visa, Mastercard, Amex, and other major cards. Payments and invoicing are processed through Polar, our merchant of record. Polar handles VAT/GST/sales tax in 100+ countries and issues a fully tax-compliant invoice for every purchase. We don't accept crypto.
What if an API call fails?
We monitor every request. If the data layer returns a 5xx, we automatically refund the credits and you see it in your transaction history within seconds. You don't pay for failures.
Can I integrate this with my CRM / n8n / LangChain?
Yes. Zooq is a plain REST API plus a stub MCP server. Anything that speaks HTTP can call it. n8n, Zapier, LangChain, AutoGen, raw cURL, all welcome.
Do you store the data you return?
No. Responses pass through our proxy. We log request metadata (endpoint, status, credits, timing) so you can audit your usage. Never the payload. Your queries stay yours.
Do credits expire?
Credits from one-time packs never expire. Subscription credits reset monthly with your renewal.
What support do I get?
Email support for everyone, replied to within 48h. Founders and Pro+ subscribers get tier-3 human support: real humans, 24h reply, no chatbot wall.
What's the Founders deal?
First 100 paying customers pay $19 once and get 5,000 credits (≈500 calls) plus a permanent 30% discount on every credit pack and subscription, for as long as the account is active. Server-enforced cap. The counter at the top of this page is live.
How fast can I start?
Sign up, copy your API key, paste a cURL command. Most people make their first call in under 60 seconds. 300 credits on signup, no card.
