Hi Product Hunt, I'm Mesmer, and I built LurkAPI.
It's a social media data API. One GET request returns clean JSON from public pages on 16 platforms, including TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, X, LinkedIn and Meta's Ad Library. The same 88 endpoints are an MCP server, so Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor can look things up for you.
I cared most about two things: speed and cost. The API sits next to its proxies and does only what the answer needs on each request, so the 7-day average is about a second. Most calls cost 1 credit, and 100,000 of them cost $59.
You get 100 free credits when you sign up, no card, and your balance tops back up to 25 every day. There are also 29 free tools if you want to try it without an account.
I'd like to hear what breaks, what's missing and which platform you want next.
