Product Hunt User Stacks API and MCP — Products a User Runs on

Send a username or profile link and get the products in that user's stack: name, tagline, rating, review count, link and, where given, who recommended each product and when it was added. Set max_items to cap the list (up to 250).

You send
a Product Hunt username or profile link, and how many results to return
You get back
products in the user's stack, with rating, review count and who recommended them
Coverage
Product Hunt records with a public page.
Price
1 point per returned record — $1 per 1,000
Billed per record actually returned, capped by max_items. A request that returns nothing costs nothing.
Comparison

Ways to get this data

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

ApproachWhat it takesCostTrade-off
Product Hunt directlyOpen the page on Product Hunt and scroll through the listFree, and slowFine for one record, useless across a list, and the layout differs on every platform
Building a scraperWrite it, host it, and repair it when Product Hunt changes its pagesEngineering timeA maintenance commitment for something that isn't your product
NeuralVergeOne request, the same shape as every other source in the catalog$1 per 1,000, misses not billedReturns 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.

Results come back in the same envelope as every other source: a session id, a readable summary, the structured result and the points charged. max_items caps how many records are returned and billed.

curl -X POST https://api.neuralverge.ai/functions/v1/run-producthunt-users-stacks \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"user":"kevin","max_items":2}'
Use cases

What teams use it for

Where this field shows up in an actual workflow.

Tool adoption

See which tools a well-known maker or investor runs on.

Competitive intelligence

Check whether a target account's team lists your product or a rival's.

Integration planning

Find which products show up together in stacks and plan integrations around them.

Outreach context

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
  • —A stack is what a person chose to list on their profile; it is not a record of what they actually use.
  • —Several fields, including review count, added date and referrer, were null in the sample.
  • —This source returns a person's public list. Use it for product research, not to profile the individual.
FAQ

Questions, answered

There is a referrer field for it, but it was null in the sample, so it is filled only when the platform shows one.
