Search and read live listings

GET`/api/v1/listings`

Search and filter listings. Full-text search over this site's live listings (name, tagline, description, keywords; typo tolerant) with filters. Use `q` for words, or leave it empty to browse. `category` includes its subcategories. `domain` finds the listing of a website. Results are summaries; call get_listing for the full profile.

GET`/api/v1/listings/{slug}`

Get a listing's full profile. Everything public about one listing: description, features, pricing, categories, founders, FAQs, socials, latest updates, community rating (genuine reviews only), Ahrefs Domain Rating with trend, and links. Paid-only sections (story, milestones, media) appear only when the listing has them unlocked, exactly as on the page. `not_found_on_website` lists facts the company's own site did not state (left blank on purpose).
