URL Meta has been around for eight years now. It has gone through many iterations based on users' feedback and is the most stable it has ever been.
Following are the updates since the previous launch:
- Pro Plans. With increased request quota.
- Robust Meta API
- DNS API to get domain records like TXT, MX, BIMI, DMARC, etc.
- Screenshot API to get full-page screenshots of rendered pages.
- Updated documentation with code samples.
- Free social link share preview tool: https://urlmeta.org/link-share-p...
The free plan is still there, so if you want to try it, please do! I'd love any feedback you have.

Who hunted URL Meta?
URL Meta was hunted by Moin Uddin. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
