Product Hunt Launches Scraper: Daily, Weekly & Monthly

Get every Product Hunt launch from the daily, weekly or monthly leaderboards for any date range: name, tagline, votes, comments, daily/weekly/monthly rank, topics, logo and links. Export to JSON, CSV or Excel, or call it from code, n8n, Make, Zapier or an AI agent through MCP.

You only pay for launches delivered. Leaderboards that can't be read get an error row and are never charged.

Why this one

• Complete leaderboards. Pages through the whole leaderboard, not just the first screen: all featured launches, or switch off Featured only to get every launch of the day.
• Any period, any range. Daily, weekly (ISO weeks, as Product Hunt uses) or monthly. Give a start and end date and get every leaderboard in between in one dataset.
• Fast and light. No browser. Reads Product Hunt's own data feed, 20 launches per request. In our release test it fetched 240 launches from 7 daily leaderboards in 19 seconds, with zero errors.
• Built for monitoring. Leave the dates empty and it fetches yesterday's leaderboard. Schedule it daily to track competitors, trends or leads.
• Self-updating. It reads the query Product Hunt's own site uses on every run, so small site changes don't break it.

Pricing

Pay per event: one charge per launch delivered, at the price on the Pricing tab. Set a maximum cost per run and the Actor stops cleanly when it reaches it.

FAQ

Does it include maker names or emails? No. It returns the public launch data shown on the leaderboards.

What time zone are dates in? Pacific time, the same as Product Hunt's leaderboards.

Is it legal? The Actor reads publicly visible data. You are responsible for how you use it, including Product Hunt's terms.

Something broke? Open an issue on the Issues tab with your input.
