Does it return the product's reviews and launches?

This source returns the product profile with counts. Reviews, launches, customers and alternatives each have their own source, so you can pull the full list for the product.

Do I pay for lookups that come back empty?

No. You are charged per result, so a request that finds nothing costs nothing. Testing this against a messy list is free to get wrong.

What does a request cost?

5 points per successful run, which is $5 per 1,000, and only runs that return data are charged. Points come out of your monthly plan allowance.

Comparison

Ways to get this data

Three approaches teams use today, and where each one runs into trouble.

Approach	What it takes	Cost	Trade-off
Product Hunt directly	Open the page on Product Hunt and read it	Free, and slow	Fine for one record, useless across a list, and the layout differs on every platform
Building a scraper	Write it, host it, and repair it when Product Hunt changes its pages	Engineering time	A maintenance commitment for something that isn't your product
NeuralVerge	One request, the same shape as every other source in the catalog	$5 per 1,000, misses not billed	Returns what Product Hunt publishes at request time. Other platforms are separate sources with the same request format

Integration

How to run it

The same lookup works from the app, the API, or as a tool an agent can call mid-task.

One record per request. Results come back in the same envelope as every other source: a session id, a readable summary, the structured result and the points charged.

curl -X POST https://api.neuralverge.ai/functions/v1/run-producthunt-products \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"product":"doplac-crm"}'

Use cases

What teams use it for

Where this field shows up in an actual workflow.

Product due diligence

Pull rating, review count, followers and launch history for a product before a call, a partnership or an investment look.

Competitor profiles

Build a sheet of competing products with their categories, pros and cons and the alternatives the platform lists.

Lead enrichment

Add a product's website, domain and social links to a CRM record from just the Product Hunt slug.

Startup monitoring

Re-run the lookup on a schedule to track follower and review counts for products you follow.

Coverage & limits

Coverage, freshness and limits

What this source covers, how fresh it is, and where it stops.

Coverage

Product Hunt records with a public page.

Freshness

Read at request time, so the answer reflects the platform as it stands when you ask.

Handling

This source returns information Product Hunt shows publicly. Every response carries the session id you can trace.

What it will not do

—Returns one product per request; use the search or list sources for many products.
—Fields the product has not filled in, such as team size, funding amount and several social links, come back as null.
—Makers appear with names and profile links as listed on the page; the record is a product profile, not a person lookup.
