How it works

Two-phase extraction:

  1. RSS feed (medium.com/feed/tag/{topic}) — returns structured XML with titles, authors, tags, dates, and summaries. Fast and not blocked by anti-bot.
  2. Article pages (one HTTP request per article) — extracts actual clap counts and reading time from the article HTML.

Use cases

  • Content curation for newsletters
  • Trend analysis in tech topics
  • Competitive research
  • Building reading lists by topic
  • Monitoring new articles in your niche
