Access Whop marketplace data: verified companies, popular businesses by category, forum posts, and classification taxonomy via 5 structured endpoints.
What is the Whop API?
The Whop.com API exposes 5 endpoints covering the Whop digital marketplace, returning structured data on verified companies, popular businesses, the full category taxonomy, public forum posts, and discover sections. The get_verified_companies endpoint alone surfaces fields like member_count, reviews_average, creator_pitch, and owner details, giving developers a direct feed into Whop's creator economy listings without manual browsing.

}About the Whop API
Company and Business Data
The get_verified_companies endpoint returns paginated lists of Whop-verified companies, each with id, title, route, url, verified status, member_count, reviews_average, reviews_count, creator_pitch, and logo. Pagination is cursor-based: pass the end_cursor from one response as the after parameter in the next call. Up to 50 records per page are supported.
The get_popular_businesses endpoint adds filtering by business_type, industry_group, and industry_type. Valid filter values are not hardcoded — they come from the get_categories endpoint, which returns the full classification hierarchy including every top-level business type and its nested industry groups and industry types. This means filter sets stay current as Whop's taxonomy evolves.
Category Discovery
get_categories returns the complete taxonomy in a single call: an array of objects where each entry has a business_type string and an industry_groups array. Use the leaf-level strings directly as filter parameters in get_popular_businesses. The get_discover_categories endpoint returns a randomized selection of categories that currently have active businesses, with optional count and min_bot_count inputs — useful for sampling what segments are actually populated.
Forum Posts
get_public_forum_posts returns public posts across the Whop platform, including title, content, comment_count, view_count, reaction_count, attachment data, and recent comments. Because the forum feed moves quickly, after_cursor may return empty results if the cursor is stale. For reliable backward pagination through older content, use before_cursor instead.
The Whop API is a managed, monitored endpoint for whop.com — not a raw scraper you maintain. Every endpoint is automatically health-checked on a schedule, and when whop.com changes and a check fails, the API is automatically queued for repair and re-verified. It is built to keep working as the site underneath it changes.
This isn't an official whop.com API — it's an independent, maintained REST wrapper over public data. Where the source has no official API (or only a limited one), Parse gives you a stable contract over a source that never promised one, and keeps it current. Need a new endpoint or field? You can revise it yourself in plain English and the agent rebuilds it against the live site in minutes — contributing the change back to the shared API is free.

Does Whop have an official developer API?+
How does the category filtering in `get_popular_businesses` work?+
business_type, industry_group, and industry_type parameters all accept string slugs. The valid values are not documented statically — you retrieve them from get_categories, which returns the live taxonomy. Pass any combination of the three filter fields; they are all optional and can be used independently or together.Why might `after_cursor` in `get_public_forum_posts` return empty results?+
after_cursor) can expire or fall behind if too much time passes between requests. For stable backward pagination through archived posts, use before_cursor instead. Real-time polling should re-anchor from a fresh call rather than relying on a stale after_cursor.Does the API return individual product or pass listings sold within a company?+
Can I retrieve a specific company's full review list?+
reviews_average and reviews_count) per company, but individual review text and reviewer details are not exposed. You can fork this API on Parse and revise it to add an endpoint that returns individual review records for a given company.
