A job board is only as good as the jobs it shows you that you can actually apply for. Here is how Wellfound and eight alternatives do at that, one dial per question.
The gold needle is placed 1st: Wellfound.
Ranked by rounds won, then by how they did on the rounds that could be confirmed. Equal records are separated by evidence: rounds won outright, fewer results resting on the brand's own claims, then the trust round. Each dial sets the platform beside Wellfound; the gold needle is whichever did better.

Visit remotive.comEvery round asks how well a board shows you the jobs you are eligible to apply for. Each dial runs from worse for you to better for you; the gold needle is the platform placed 1st, whoever it is.
Brand's own claim marks a result that rests only on the platform's own pages and hasn't been observed independently. Wellfound is underlined.
Wellfound: About 267 of the 1,416 results for roles hiring in the United Kingdom are remote, open to a UK reader and posted in the last 30 days, going by a sample of 159.
Himalayas: About 7,599 of the 9,485 jobs returned for the United Kingdom were posted in the last 30 days, going by a sample of 166.
Not confirmed: Jobgether (20,587 jobs in its raw total; logged out only the first 20 results are shown, so the ages of the rest could not be checked); Remotive (11,342 matching jobs in its raw total; the UK results could not be listed logged out, so their ages could not be checked)
Wellfound: A location on 36 of 41 rows checked; a salary range on 41 of 41 rows of the remote page and 30 of 43 results for a UK reader, none labelled as an estimate.

support.remotive.com/en/article/how-much-does-remotive-cost-10lo… · checked 15 Nov 2026Job seekers who specifically want startup roles, care about seeing salary and equity before applying, and are happy to be approached by founders; and startups that want free posting with an ATS.
Salary sits on listing cards (41 of 41 rows checked), equity on some, and free distribution is tied to employers including compensation. Few boards enforce this.
Everything on the candidate side is free, with no paid seeker tier found.
Unlimited job posts and an ATS at $0 is hard to beat for startups.
Filters for equity range, investment stage and company size suit startup job hunting specifically.
A job board exists to show you the jobs you are eligible to apply for. Each level is a result any board could deliver. Every fact on this page links to the page it came from, with the date it was checked. Last checked 15 Nov 2026.
Counts the roles open to you from where you live, not the headline total.
Every board is counted the same way, with its own free location filter on the check date. A role counts when it is remote, open to your location (your country, a wider region it sits in, such as Europe or EMEA, or anywhere), and posted in the last 30 days.
Where the whole list loads, it is counted in full. Otherwise the board's total is scaled by the share of sampled listings that pass all three tests. Where the ages could not be checked, the board is shown as Not confirmed in this round, with its raw total, and is not placed.
Every board is counted for a reader based in the UK, so the figures on these pages are UK figures, whichever location you choose in the fit quiz.
The figure has to be one we observed on the check date or read from product data. A total the platform only states scores nothing here.
When two platforms score the same, this round's own evidence separates them: the larger count of roles open to the reader's location that were posted in the last 30 days.
Best result: You can see a checked count of roles open to someone where you live. Worst: You can't tell how many roles are open to you.
The full rule for this roundLooks at whether listings say where you can work from, and what the role pays.
Pay counts when the employer states it, or when the platform estimates it and labels the figure as an estimate. An estimate shown as if it were the employer's pay counts for nothing. A figure with no estimate label is taken as the employer's, unless the same figure repeats across unrelated employers.
Pay is counted the same way on every board: across every page of results checked, including the location-filtered results used for roles open to you.
The levels are set by the figures alone. The top level needs where you can work stated on at least 80% of the listings checked, and pay on at least 80%. The middle level needs where you can work stated on at least 80%. Anything less is the bottom level.
When two platforms score the same, this round's own evidence separates them: the larger share of listings checked that state where you can work from, then the larger share of listings checked that show pay, stated by the employer or as a labelled estimate.
Best result: Where you can work and the pay, stated or as a labelled estimate, on 80% or more of listings. Worst: Where you can work is stated on fewer than 80% of listings.
The full rule for this roundCovers both halves of freshness: how old listings are allowed to get, and whether you can see a listing's age. The score is the average of the two halves. Anything a platform only claims for itself scores half at most.
When two platforms score the same, this round's own evidence separates them: the younger oldest listing actually observed, in days, then the larger share of listings checked that show an age.
How old listings get. Best: a hard expiry of 30 days or less, observed or read from product code. Worst: listings seen older than 60 days, auto-renewal, or no cap that could be observed.
Whether you can see the age. Best: shown on every listing where you browse. Worst: the age is not shown.
Best result: A short hard cap, and the age on every listing. Worst: Ages not visible and nothing caps them.
The full rule for this roundLooks at whether you can narrow the list to the roles open to you: by browsing region pages, by a region or country filter, or by hiding the roles you can't apply for.
When two platforms score the same, this round's own evidence separates them: how freely the location filter could be used when checked: with no account, then with a free account, then paid or not tested.
Missing from the facts gathered: a like-for-like measure of how many roles each filter lets through that a reader cannot apply for. Without it, boards whose filter hides such roles and works with no account are level.
Best result: You can hide roles you can't apply for from where you live. Worst: You browse broad region pages.
The full rule for this roundLooks at what you get for what you pay. Free is not automatically better. A board is on the bottom level when fewer than 50% of its roles can be seen in full without paying.
When two platforms score the same, this round's own evidence separates them: what it costs to see every listing, then the cheapest paid tier, per month, then how many months you are locked in.
Best result: Every role is free to see; extra help is optional and month to month. Worst: You pay before you can see half of the roles in full.
The full rule for this roundUses independent reviews, and whether the way listings are checked is documented. A handful of reviews is not a high score.
When two platforms score the same, this round's own evidence separates them: the higher independent review score, among platforms with at least 25 reviews, then the larger number of independent reviews.
Best result: Documented vetting plus a large independent review base. Worst: Little independent evidence either way.
The full rule for this roundWe saw it on the platform's own pages on the check date. It comes from a source the platform does not control, such as a review site. It was read from the product's own code or live data. Only We Are Distributed can be checked this way, because it is the only product whose code we can read. A price or plan on the platform's own pricing or terms page: the page is the offer.
The platform says so on its own pages and it could not be observed. It counts half.
The platform's own pages disagree with each other. It counts nothing until they agree.
Each round puts the platforms in order by score, from 1st to last. Equal scores are separated only by that round's own evidence, never by another round; after that, a result we observed goes ahead of one the platform only states. When the platforms at the top of a round are still level, none of them is placed 1st in that round.
The overall order goes by rounds won (placed 1st), then by average score across the rounds that could be confirmed, then to the platform with fewer unconfirmed rounds, then to the one placed in the top half of more rounds.
We Are Distributed is one of the brands compared on these pages, and it publishes them.
Some global employment providers may pay We Are Distributed a referral fee when a company it advises signs with them.
We Are Distributed never ranks or recommends a provider because of a referral fee or any other partnership terms.
Read the full methodologyWe Are Distributed's figures were checked in its own product data and code; the other platforms are judged on what they publish and what could be seen on their pages.

Method: the /jobs board's own open-to-you test with the base set to UK, applied to every row of the board feed as the board page loaded it on 15 Nov 2026 (feed generated 09:07 UTC); the board's own picker showed 1,556 open for UK, which is the same test without on-site roles.

The board script still contains an 'Our estimate' label, but nothing on the public board is shown under it. Corrected 15 Nov after the rendered board was checked; the earlier wording said everything else was labelled 'Our estimate'. | We Are Distributed product data and code | 15 Nov 2026 | Product verified |
