Capterra API
Retrieve software product listings, user reviews, ratings, feature checklists, pricing tiers, and vendor profiles from Capterra's software discovery platform.
What Is the Capterra API?
The Capterra API provides programmatic access to Capterra's software discovery platform - a Gartner-owned marketplace covering 100,000+ software products across hundreds of business categories. It returns software listings with overall star rating, review count, pricing range, and feature checklists per category. Each product profile includes screenshots, vendor description, supported integrations, deployment options (cloud, on-premise, mobile), and category tags. Searches run by software category, product name, or feature keyword across Capterra's full catalog.
Individual user reviews include reviewer role, company size, industry, star rating, and free-text pros/cons - making the data useful for sentiment analysis, feature gap detection, and competitive review monitoring. Capterra also provides short feature checklists per category that describe what a given product covers versus the category standard, which is valuable for automated feature comparison tables. Combined with reviews from G2 and Trustpilot, Capterra data gives software buyers and market researchers a complete cross-platform view of any vendor's reputation and positioning.
