Public data from nine social platforms. One account, one credit balance.
InsightSocial collects public data from Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, X (Twitter), Threads, YouTube, Reddit and Pinterest, and hands it to you as rows: posts, comments, profiles, followers and contact details. There are two ways in. A Chrome extension scrapes the pages you are already looking at, with no code. A REST API returns the same kinds of data to your scripts and AI agents. Both draw on the same credit balance.

239 GET endpoints over nine platforms. Every call uses the same x-api-key header and returns the same JSON envelope, so switching platforms means changing one path segment.
curl "https://api.insightsocial.app/v1/tiktok/profile?handle=nasa" \
-H "x-api-key: $INSIGHTSOCIAL_API_KEY"- Priced per endpoint. A profile lookup costs 20 credits. Metered endpoints, such as paginated comments, hold a ceiling and charge only what the call used.
- Failed calls and empty results are free. Every response reports
credits_usedandcredits_remaining. - Free catalogue.
GET https://api.insightsocial.app/v1/endpointslists every path, parameter and price. It needs no key, so an agent can plan a job and price it before it spends anything.
