Social media scraping API for public profiles, posts, comments, videos, transcripts, and metrics from TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, X, LinkedIn, and more. Pay-as-you-go credits, 100 free to start.
I built Social Fetch because I kept running into the same problem.
Every project that needed public social media data started out simple enough. Grab some YouTube data. Add Twitter. Then someone asks for TikTok. Then LinkedIn. Then Reddit.
Before long, I wasn't building the product anymore, I was maintaining scrapers.
Platforms change. Formats are all different. Something is always breaking.
It felt like a solved problem that nobody had actually solved.
So I spent the last couple of years building Social Fetch: one API for live public data across 20+ platforms.
What surprised me wasn't that people wanted social data. It was how many different things they were building with it. AI agents. Creator tools. Lead generation. Brand monitoring. Research. Things I never would have thought of myself.
One thing I care a lot about is keeping it simple: • one API • live data • consistent responses • subscriptions + pay-as-you-go credits that never expire
I'd love to know what you'd build with it.
Or if you've ever built your own scraper... what finally made you regret it? 😅
I'll be hanging around all day if anyone wants to chat or has questions.

Who hunted Social Fetch?
Social Fetch was hunted by Chris Messina. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
