Public data
is public.
Act like it.
A developer-first API built to not get blocked. Extract real-time data from Instagram, X, and TikTok with zero infrastructure headaches — and built-in anti-ban from day one.
Public data only — no login bypass, no private data, no shady stuff.
Three platforms.
Zero headaches.
Focused coverage on the platforms that actually matter right now. Full depth on each one — not a shallow wrapper.
Profiles, recent posts, individual media by ID or shortcode, and Reels.
TikTok
Profiles and individual video details — views, likes, shares, comments, and audio.
YouTube
Public channel video listings — title, thumbnail, publish date, and views.
X / Twitter, LinkedIn, Reddit, Pinterest — shipping soon.
Built to not
get blocked.
Everyone ships an API. We built one that still works when the platform decides to push back — hard.
01 — DIFFERENTIATOR
Anti-Ban Infrastructure
Our distributed proxy network, browser fingerprint rotation, and automatic CAPTCHA layer means your requests look indistinguishable from a real human. We absorb the blocks. You see nothing.
- Residential proxy rotation
- Browser fingerprint spoofing
- Automatic CAPTCHA solving
- Rate-limit-aware retry logic
02
Live Data, Every Call
No caches. No stale data. Every response comes from the platform in real time, the moment you call it. What you get is what's actually live right now.
- Zero cached responses
- Real-time per-request fetch
- Always-current engagement metrics
03
One Header Auth
Pass an X-API-Key header and you're live. No OAuth dance. No SDK setup. No sandbox approval. Works with any language that can make HTTP requests.
- Single-header auth
- Works in curl, Python, Node, Go
- Minutes to first successful call
04
Clean JSON, Always
Predictable schemas across every endpoint. Flat, typed JSON you can trust. No XML. No nested nightmares. No undocumented fields silently changing on you in production.
- Consistent response shapes
- Flat, predictable structures
- OpenAPI schema available
05
Credits That Make Sense
1 request = 1 credit. No tiered math, no hidden multipliers, no surprises on your bill. Buy once, use whenever — credits never expire.
- Flat per-request pricing
- Credits never expire
- No subscription lock-in
06
No Artificial Limits
Run 1 request or 1,000 concurrent ones. We don't cap your concurrency or add per-minute throttles. Your credits are the only limit — nothing else.
- Unlimited concurrency
- No per-minute caps
- Auto-scaling infrastructure

"I built my own Instagram scraper three times. Got blocked every time within 48 hours. ScrapingIsNotACrime just works. Been running 6 weeks straight."

"The anti-ban layer is legit. We're running hundreds of concurrent requests for a client — zero blocks in 3 months. Other APIs would've died in a week."

"Finally an API that doesn't hide behind 'fair use policies' to justify charging per field. 1 request = 1 credit. Refreshingly honest pricing."
