Show HN: Scrape Creators – Real time Social media scraping APIs for devs

2 CodeBrief 3 5/9/2025, 6:42:21 PM scrapecreators.com ↗

Hey HN!

I built Scrape Creators: a set of real-time scraping APIs that let you pull fresh data from TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, Truth Social and more.

It's great for:

> Feeding social data into AI agents (e.g. summarize latest TikToks about a product) > Analyzing creators based on their posts, bios, hashtags, and music > Getting video transcripts, post captions, music metadata, and engagement stats in real time

No signup required to browse the docs: https://docs.scrapecreators.com/ Test it out: https://scrapecreators.com

Would love any feedback or questions!

Do people still need social media APIs? My experience is most of the use cases require accounts and login

How do you deal robustly with the changing cat/mouse game of unofficial api access/scraping?

Do you use your own “bot” accounts?

All public information, so no accounts needed.

If you scrape via the API's (which I do in most cases), then the security on those doesn't change all the much. And responses also stay consistent.
