Social Media Phone Finder

Find social profiles by niche keyword and extract publicly listed phone numbers across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Twitter (X), Threads, Reddit, Facebook, and VK.

Expected hit-rate (honest)

Public phone numbers on social profiles are much rarer than emails. Many profiles list no number. Treat this Actor as sparse contact discovery, not a phone directory.

What you can extract

• Validated E.164 phone_numbers[] (invalid strings dropped before charge)
• phone (primary), best-effort phone_country, phone_line_type (usually unknown)
• Name, username, about / bio
• Platform, profile link, thumbnail
• Followers / following / posts when present
• Keyword used for the run

Phone mode

Mode	Bias
creator (default)	WhatsApp / call-me / +country style bios
local_business	call us / hours / store wording (IG and Facebook often better)

Link-in-bio (Linktree)

When include_link_in_bio is on, the Actor also checks Linktree pages for a listed number. If none are found, the run continues with the profiles it already has. The input form starts with this off so the first run stays short.

How to use

1. Create a free Apify account.
2. Open the Social Media Phone Finder on Apify.
3. Enter a keyword, choose platforms, set max results (optional phone_mode / include_link_in_bio / location / exclusions).
4. Click Start, then download JSON / CSV / Excel or use the API.

Pricing

This actor uses pay-per-event pricing.

data_request (primary) is charged once per profile row with at least one validated phone, plus platform_usage at $0.001.

The Store page currently shows this Actor as under maintenance. Apify sets that after the daily test with the default input fails. The test input is keyword marketing, platform TikTok, and 5 results, with link-in-bio off. The notice stays until a later daily test saves at least one row.

Free users are capped and may see upgrade placeholders after a small reveal.
