I built a free tool to check H-1B sponsorship evidence before applying

I built this because one of the hardest parts of job searching on H-1B is deciding whether a company is even worth spending time on.

The tool checks H1BGrader data for companies, job titles, and cities, then returns structured sponsorship evidence like LCA activity, USCIS approval trends, salaries, grades, and sponsored job titles.

It does not guarantee a company will sponsor a specific role, and it is not legal advice. It just helps surface historical evidence before applying.

I built an MCP server to check H-1B sponsorship signals while job searching

I’ve been using a career-ops workflow to make my job search less chaotic: tracking roles, tailoring resumes, and deciding where to spend time.

One thing it was missing was H-1B sponsorship context.

For candidates who need sponsorship, “should I apply?” often depends on whether the company has recent H-1B evidence, whether they sponsor similar roles, and whether the signal is strong enough to justify spending time on the application.

So I built h1b-mcp, an MCP server that connects to H1BGrader and exposes tools for checking:

  • company-level H-1B sponsorship signals
  • company + job title sponsorship context
  • job-title-level sponsor activity
  • city-level sponsor activity
  • LCA trends, USCIS approval trends, salaries, grades, and sponsored job titles

It’s installable with uvx and works with MCP-compatible clients.

This is not meant to be legal advice or a guarantee that a company will sponsor a specific role. It’s meant to give an agent better evidence before deciding whether an opportunity is worth spending time on.
