PeerIndex for Developers
The PeerIndex API provides programmatic access to the data of the PeerIndex platform. This allows developers to integrate PeerIndex ranks into their applications.
These pages provide the documentation necessary to get started with using the PeerIndex API.
Announcing Lancelot
We are very happy to announce our improved API interface that provides category filtering and 'Topical PeerIndex' or TPI scores. Many of the new features have only been available to PeerIndex and a few trusted partners, but are now being rolled out for public use. The new upgrade opens up a host of new uses and provides added granular insight while still respecting users privacy rights. The new API will allow:
- Media aggregator and curation platforms to decide which content should 'rise to the top' based on TPI scores
- CRM platforms to categorise inbound leads by topic interest
- Social stream readers to sift discussions to create topic-oriented forums that highlight commentary from specialists
- Social media platforms to be able to organise users by TPI influence and provide tracking to build communities
