ProductHunt API Documentation

Overview

The ProductHunt API offers two main functionalities:

  1. Retrieve trending product lists for specified dates
  2. Fetch detailed product information based on product names

This API is designed to help developers easily access popular product data from ProductHunt, facilitating product analysis, market research, or the creation of custom product recommendation services.

API Interface

End Point
