Replace the three demo links with your own reel links, one per line, and run. Each reel comes back as one row with the spoken script word for word, the text on screen, the opening hook and the call to action.
Yes. A music-only or silent reel still returns a full row: the transcript is empty and marked as having no speech, while the on-screen text, hook, structure and call to action are filled in.
No. No login, cookies, password or Instagram account. It reads public reels only, nothing is connected to your account and nothing is posted on your behalf.
One flat charge per analyzed reel at any length up to 3 minutes, with no per-minute fee. Reels that cannot be analyzed come back free with the reason. The price depends on your Apify plan; see the Actor's Pricing tab.
No. The script and on-screen text stay in the original language, mixed languages included. The summary and takeaways are written in the reel's own language too.
