Going scores F on the API Report Card. No public API. Going is a consumer flight-deal alert service with no developer portal, endpoints, webhooks, or SDK, and no RSS feed of deals. The only programmatic-adjacent surface is an Impact Radius affiliate program that provides tracking links, not data.
Without a usable official API, teams fall back on manual exports, file drops, or one-off vendor integrations. The other option is an unofficial API layer like Supergood that automates the authenticated web app directly.
Going, formerly Scott's Cheap Flights, rebranded in February 2023, is a Denver, Colorado-based consumer flight-deal alert service founded by Scott Keyes in 2015 after he stumbled on a $130 NYC-to-Milan roundtrip and emailed it to friends.
Vertical: Consumer Travel / Flight Deals (does not map to any Supergood ICP vertical, closest fit is 'misc'). Member signs up free at going.com, selects one or more home airports and trip preferences (regions, cabin class, dates of flexibility, peak vs. off-peak).
4/10.
Going holds very little 'platform-critical' operating data for any third party: Member account: email, home airport(s), trip-region preferences, cabin-class preference, notification frequency, mobile push token.
Founded in 2015 as Scott's Cheap Flights by Scott Keyes in Denver, Colorado. Rebranded to Going in February 2023 (rebrand led by London-based DesignStudio after evaluating 3,000 candidate names). Native iOS app released March 2024; Android shortly after.
No public API exists, so there are no API-specific complaints to surface, there is also no developer community in which to file them. The Going affiliate program (via Impact Radius) is marketing-only; publishers cannot programmatically pull deal feeds, member data, or booking events into their own products.

Common alternatives include Thrifty Traveler, Dollar Flight Club, Jack's Flight Club, FareDrop, Next Vacay, Matt's Flights. Graded alternatives appear under "More from the report card" below.
Grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? We check six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and roll them into a letter grade. Grades get re-verified, and they only move on evidence.
