01 — The philosophy

Less complexity.
More creation.

Working with social media data shouldn't mean rebuilding the same extraction workflow for every platform.

MetaDown provides a focused interface for retrieving available post and media metadata, helping developers connect social links to their own applications.

Straightforward integration

Work through HTTP requests and process the response with the tools you already use.

One focused purpose

A dedicated media metadata layer without the overhead of a complicated SDK.

02 — Supported platforms

Different platforms.
One familiar approach.

Purpose-built routes for the social media platforms supported by MetaDown.
