Quick start

require "net/http"
require "json"

uri = URI("https://similariq.ai/api/v1/search")
req = Net::HTTP::Post.new(uri, {{
  "X-API-Key" => ENV["SIMILARIQ_API_KEY"],
  "Content-Type" => "application/json",
}})
req.body = {{ domain: "salesforce.com", limit: 100 }}.to_json

res = Net::HTTP.start(uri.hostname, uri.port, use_ssl: true, read_timeout: 180) do |http|
  http.request(req)
end

JSON.parse(res.body)["competitors"].first(10).each do |c|
  puts "#{{c['rank']}}. #{{c['company']}} (#{{c['domain']}}) — #{{c['matchScore']}} #{{c['type']}}"
