Link Preview API — Get rich link previews for your applications.

We combine data from various sources, including oEmbed, Twitter and Open Graph meta tags, and standard HTML tags. We edge cache preview data so responses are blazing fast. We return all the media for a page and support various REST-friendly clients.

I'm excited to share with you the launch of our first commercially available API. We're starting simple with link previews. A link preview shows a summary of the page referenced by a URL. Given a link, our API will return the corresponding title, author, publisher, and so on. We use this API in our applications, like Kiki. We'll use it in Civic when it launches. Given the work that goes into making sure we're producing the best data, why not make it available to everyone?
