Getting started

REST API

Noctral REST API

Query from your code the estimated MRR of mobile apps and SaaS, the apps that grew the most, niches, running ads and onboarding and paywall screens.

Authentication

Every call sends the key in the Authorization header as a Bearer token. Keys start with nk_ and are created on the API & MCP screen. The OAuth login applies to the MCP server only.

HTTP

Authorization: Bearer nk_YOUR_KEY

Create the key in API & MCP. The API is part of the Pro plan (monthly, lifetime or monthly pass). The plan is checked on every call: if the subscription ends, the keys stop working.

Clients that cannot send Bearer can use the X-API-Key header instead.

REST API

JSON over HTTPS. Every route is GET and lives under https://noctralspy.com/api/v1

curl

curl "https://noctralspy.com/api/v1/rankings/growth?window=7d&niche=ia-chatbot&limit=5" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer nk_YOUR_KEY"

Want the data in Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor? The MCP server connects with a login, no key needed. Connect over MCP

Response format

Lists come in data with pagination in meta (total, offset, limit, next_offset). Profiles come in data. Every item includes the URL of its Noctral page.
