NinjaPear Overview

NinjaPear is a B2B Company Intelligence platform focused on data ownership and ethical sourcing. As a first-party provider, we maintain a sustainable ecosystem of proprietary and legally vetted data. Our mission is to provide a reliable data infrastructure, enabling businesses to develop and scale value-added applications and workflows with confidence.

Explain it to me like I'm 5

Authentication

curl "https://nubela.co/api/v1/customer/listing" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

import ninjapear

configuration = ninjapear.Configuration(
    host="https://nubela.co",
    access_token="YOUR_API_KEY"
)

with ninjapear.ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
    api = ninjapear.CustomerAPIApi(api_client)
    response = api.get_customer_listing(website="https://example.com")

var NinjaPear = require("ninjapear");
var defaultClient = NinjaPear.ApiClient.instance;
var bearerAuth = defaultClient.authentications["bearerAuth"];
bearerAuth.accessToken = "YOUR_API_KEY";

var api = new NinjaPear.CustomerAPIApi();
api.getCustomerListing("https://example.com").then(function (data) {
  console.log(data);
});

NinjaPear's API uses bearer tokens to authenticate users. Each user is assigned a randomly generated secret key under the API section in the dashboard.

The bearer token is injected in the Authorization header.

Client Libraries

We provide official client libraries for JavaScript and Python to make integrating with the NinjaPear API easier.

JavaScript (Node.js)

npm install ninjapear

# JavaScript library - see JavaScript tab

var NinjaPear = require("ninjapear");
var defaultClient = NinjaPear.ApiClient.instance;
var bearerAuth = defaultClient.authentications["bearerAuth"];
bearerAuth.accessToken = "YOUR_API_KEY";

// Now you can use any API class
var companyApi = new NinjaPear.CompanyAPIApi();
var customerApi = new NinjaPear.CustomerAPIApi();
var contactApi = new NinjaPear.ContactAPIApi();
var metaApi = new NinjaPear.MetaAPIApi();

Python

uv add ninjapear
# or: pip install ninjapear

import ninjapear

configuration = ninjapear.Configuration(
    host="https://nubela.co",
    access_token="YOUR_API_KEY"
)

# Use the client with a context manager
with ninjapear.ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
    company_api = ninjapear.CompanyAPIApi(api_client)
    customer_api = ninjapear.CustomerAPIApi(api_client)
    contact_api = ninjapear.ContactAPIApi(api_client)
    meta_api = ninjapear.MetaAPIApi(api_client)

// Python library - see Python tab

Rate limit

You can make up to 300 requests to our API every minute. The window for the rate limit is 5 minutes. This means you can burst up to 1500 requests every 5 minutes.

At periods of high load, our system might tighten rate limits for all accounts to ensure that our services remain accessible for all users.

We return a status code of error 429 when you are rate limited. You can also get a status code error of 429 if the capacity on our end limits us.

You should handle 429 errors and apply exponential backoff.

Accounts on trial (that is before any top ups have been made) are limited to 2 requests every minute. You get the normal rate limit upon making at least one credit top-up.

Rate limit for Free APIs

To sustainably provide free APIs, rate limit for free APIs depends on your subscription plan:

Credits

Each valid request requires at least 0.1 credit to be processed, unless it is a free API endpoint.

A credit is consumed if and only if the request is parsed successfully.

A successful request is a request that returns with a 200 HTTP status code.

Timeouts and API response time

NinjaPear API endpoints take 30-60 seconds to complete.

You are encouraged to make concurrent requests to our API service to maximize throughput. See this post on how you can maximise throughput.

We recommend a timeout of 100 seconds.

Errors

These are the common errors that could be returned by our API:

HTTP Code Charge? Description
400 No Invalid parameters provided. Refer to the documentation and message body for more info
401 No Invalid API Key
403 No You have run out of credits
404 Yes The requested resource (e.g., user profile, company) could not be found
410 No This API is deprecated
429 No Rate limited. Please retry
500 No There is an error with our API. Please Contact us for assistance
503 No Enrichment failed, please retry.

You will never be charged for failed requests.

Backward Compatibility Guarantee

We are committed to ensuring that our API remains backward compatible, allowing you to integrate with confidence. Our backward compatibility guarantee means that we will not introduce changes that break existing functionality or remove endpoints without a deprecation period.

To be specific, we will not introduce breaking changes in the following ways:

  1. We will not remove documented parameters and response attributes.
  2. We will not change the data type as documented in our API responses.

However, the following are not considered breaking changes:

We highly recommend integrating our API in a way that would not break should new response attributes or headers be introduced.

If we make changes to our API, we will provide clear documentation and sufficient notice (30 days) to ensure a seamless transition. Notices will be shared via newsletter emails, Twitter/X posts and updates to our blog.

Monitor API

The Monitor API allows you to monitor updates of companies. Every new update is compiled into a single RSS feed. The system monitors company blogs, X (Twitter) profiles, and website changes.

Core Concepts

How To Use

Suppose you want to monitor a group of competitor websites for blog posts, X activity, and website changes — all delivered as a single RSS feed you can plug into Feedly, Slack, Zapier, or any RSS reader.

1. Create a feed with targets — group the companies you want to monitor into a feed. Each company is a target identified by its website URL.

curl -X POST \ -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "name": "SaaS Competitors", "targets": [ { "website_url": "https://stripe.com" }, { "website_url": "https://shopify.com" }, { "website_url": "https://vercel.com" } ] }' \ "https://nubela.co/api/v1/monitor/feeds"

The response includes an rss_url — this is the URL you subscribe to.

{ "id": "feed_abc123", "rss_url": "https://nubela.co/.../rss.xml?token=sec_live_..." }

2. Subscribe to the RSS feed — copy the rss_url and add it to any RSS reader (Feedly, Slack, Zapier, etc.). Blog posts, X posts, and website changes from all targets appear as items in a single feed.

Stripe: Expanding our Payment Network [blog] Vercel on X: "Next.js 16 is here" [x] Shopify: Pricing Page [website update]

Each item includes a category (blog, x, website update, or website new page). See Consume Feed Endpoint for the full RSS schema.

3. Add new targets — a new competitor entered the market? Add them to the feed.

curl -X POST \ -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "website_url": "https://linear.app" }' \ "https://nubela.co/api/v1/monitor/feeds/feed_abc123/targets"

4. Remove targets — a company is no longer relevant? Remove it from the feed.

curl -X DELETE \ -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \ "https://nubela.co/api/v1/monitor/feeds/feed_abc123/targets/target_xyz789"

5. Change monitoring settings — by default every target monitors blog posts, X posts, and website changes on a 7-day cadence. Use PATCH to toggle channels or change the frequency.

curl -X PATCH \ -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "settings": { "monitor_x": false, "frequency_days": 1 } }' \ "https://nubela.co/api/v1/monitor/feeds/feed_abc123/targets/target_xyz789"

Only the fields you include are changed — omitted fields keep their current values. See Settings Object for all available options.

Pricing

Action Cost
Create a feed 3 credits (one-time)
Blog post pull (per target) 1 credit/pull
Website monitoring pull (per target) 1 credit/pull
X post updates pull (per target) 2 credits/pull
All other endpoints (list, describe, delete feeds; manage targets) 0 credits

Each pull checks one target for one source (blog, X, or website). With all three sources enabled, a single target costs 4 credits per pull (1 blog + 2 X + 1 website).

Example monthly costs

Scenario Targets Frequency Credits/month
VC tracking 20 portfolio companies 20 Weekly ~346 credits (3 one-time + 20 × 4 × 4.3 weeks)
Startup monitoring 10 competitors 10 Daily ~1,203 credits (3 one-time + 10 × 4 × 30 days)
Sales team watching 5 prospect accounts (blog + X only, no website) 5 Daily ~453 credits (3 one-time + 5 × 3 × 30 days)

One-time feed creation cost (3 credits) is included in the first month only.

List Feeds Endpoint

GET /api/v1/monitor/feeds

Cost: 0 credits / request.

Retrieves a list of all feeds owned by the authenticated user.

curl -G \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  "https://nubela.co/api/v1/monitor/feeds"
