Product Hunt
Product Hunt's v2 API is a GraphQL surface over the site's daily feed of product launches, upvotes, comments, and maker/collection data. Access requires registering an OAuth application in Product Hunt's developer settings and exchanging it for a bearer token — client-credentials for read-only apps, authorization-code for anything posting on a user's behalf — with responses rate-limited per token.
AuthenticationOAuthRequires an OAuth flow; expect app registration.
HTTPSSupportedTraffic is encrypted in transit.
CORSEnabledCallable directly from browser JavaScript.
PricingFreeNo paid tier — free for the documented use case.
FormatsGraphQLResponses can be requested as GraphQL.
