Product Hunt Scraper API: Launches & Leaderboard | $1 per 1,000 products

Scrape Product Hunt's daily leaderboard and homepage launches for any day: product name, tagline, votes, comments, rank, topics, and the Product Hunt and website links. Depending on the day, you also get the description, categories, weekly and monthly rank, and a thumbnail. It needs no API token and no login, and costs $1 per 1,000 products.

What it can do

• Today's or yesterday's top launches, any specific date, or the last N days (up to 365)
• Homepage feed mode
• Filter by minimum votes or by topic (e.g. Artificial Intelligence, Developer Tools)
• Schedule it daily for a launch digest, newsletter or Slack alert

Use cases

• Investors and VC scouts: spot breakout startups on launch day.
• Sales and lead gen: build lists of newly launched SaaS tools with their websites.
• Founders and marketers: benchmark votes and timing before your own launch, and track competitors.
• Newsletter writers and AI agents: feed an automatic "top launches today" digest.
• Market research: see what's trending in AI, dev tools or no-code over months.

Pricing

Pay per result: $1.00 per 1,000 products ($0.001 each). There's no monthly rental, and filtered-out launches are free.

FAQ

Do I need a Product Hunt API token? No. How many products per day? It returns the featured launches for each day, usually around 20. Vote counts are live at the time of scraping. What time zone are dates in? Product Hunt days follow US Pacific time. Do I need a proxy? Apify Proxy (datacenter) is on by default, so there's nothing to set up. Does it include maker emails or personal profiles? No. It returns product launch data only. Is it legal? It reads public leaderboard pages with polite delays and no login. Product Hunt's terms restrict scraping and copying significant portions of its content, so check that your use fits the terms and laws that apply to you. This isn't legal advice.
