# Africa ATS Directory
A community-driven, open-source directory of African companies mapped to ATS (Applicant Tracking System) job board endpoints.
This repository stores auditable ATS mappings (`board_url`, `platform_metadata`, `verification`, `evidence`) so downstream tools can consume reliable metadata without custom scraping logic.
## Supported ATS Platforms
| Platform | Canonical Pattern | File |
|---|---|---|
| Greenhouse | `boards.greenhouse.io` | `companies/greenhouse.json` |
| Lever | `jobs.lever.co` | `companies/lever.json` |
| Ashby | `jobs.ashbyhq.com` | `companies/ashby.json` |
| SmartRecruiters | `jobs.smartrecruiters.com` | `companies/smartrecruiters.json` |
| Workable | `apply.workable.com` | `companies/workable.json` |
| BambooHR | `{subdomain}.bamboohr.com` | `companies/bamboohr.json` |
| Breezy HR | `{subdomain}.breezy.hr` | `companies/breezyhr.json` |
| Recruitee | `{subdomain}.recruitee.com` | `companies/recruitee.json` |
