Secret Flying scores F on the API Report Card. No product API. The only machine-readable surface is a default WordPress RSS feed at /feed/, which aggregators parse for deals; it exposes no structured price, date, or route fields. Affiliate revenue flows through partner OTAs, with no developer or partner portal of its own.
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. Site terms may apply to any integration approach, and how they apply is a determination each team makes for itself.
Secret Flying is a free consumer flight-deal alert website founded in 2014 by Moroccan-British entrepreneur Tarik Allag.
Vertical: Consumer Travel / Flight Deals (does not map to any Supergood ICP vertical, closest fit is 'misc'). A reader lands on the website or opens the mobile app, sets a 'home airport' (city), and optionally subscribes to free email alerts.
Medium in the niche free flight-deal-alert category, negligible everywhere else.
Secret Flying holds very little 'platform-critical' operating data for any third party: Member account: email, home airport / departure city, notification frequency, opt-in preferences.
Founded 2014 by Tarik Allag; ~12 years old as of 2026. The consumer website is a WordPress-style content site (the public RSS at /feed/ is consistent with WordPress) with a clean, deal-card UI optimized for mobile and social sharing.
No public API exists, so there are no API-specific complaints to surface, and there is no developer community to file them. The RSS feed at /feed/ is unofficial in the sense that it is a WordPress default rather than a supported product surface, there is no SLA, no schema versioning, and no documentation of fields (origin, destination, cabin class, expiration) so consumers must regex-parse post titles.

Common alternatives include Going (formerly Scott's Cheap Flights), The Flight Deal, Holiday Pirates / Urlaubspiraten, Thrifty Traveler, Dollar Flight Club, Jack's Flight Club. 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.
