Social Media Email Finder: YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, X, LinkedIn

Paste a list of YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, X (Twitter) or LinkedIn profiles and get the contact email for each one. Emails come from our creator database, built from profile bios, linked pages and other public sources, so you get more than what a scraper of one bio would find.

You only pay for emails found: $0.10 each. Profiles without an email, and lookup errors, are free. A run costs $0.0001 to start, whatever its size.

🎯 Who it's for

• Influencer marketing: build outreach lists of creators across platforms in one go
• Agencies: enrich client creator lists with contact emails, in bulk or through the API
• Brand partnerships and sales: reach creators and businesses in your niche
• Creator platforms and CRMs: fill in missing contact data

⚙️ How it works

1. Paste profiles. Profile URLs from any of the 5 platforms, mixed in one list, up to 1,000 per run. Usernames and IDs work too.
2. We look them up. Each profile is matched against our creator database, 10 at a time. Most runs take seconds.
3. Export and reach out. One row per profile with the email, its status and the profile link. Download CSV, Excel or JSON, or read the dataset through the Apify API.

Field	Description

Accepted formats:

Platform	URL	Username / ID

    "https://www.youtube.com/@TheDiaryOfACEO",
    "https://www.instagram.com/natgeo",
    "https://x.com/MKBHD"

}

Existing integrations keep working. The single-profile input of the first version (platform with user_id, username or url) is still accepted, and the output keeps the same fields.

💰 Pricing

	Price
Email found (success)	$0.10 ($100 per 1,000)
Profile without email (not_found) or error	Free
Run start (any number of profiles)	$0.0001

No subscription. Set Maximum cost per run to cap your spend: the run stops before going over and tells you how many profiles are left.

🎬 Need the hidden YouTube business email?

Many YouTube creators keep their business email behind the "View email address" button on their channel, which needs a signed-in account and a reCAPTCHA. For those, use our YouTube Channel Email Scraper: it reveals that exact address. YouTube rows here without an email carry a hint pointing there.

🏢 For high-volume teams

• Bulk: 1,000 profiles per run, as many runs in parallel as you need.
• API and integrations: start runs and read results from your own pipeline, Make, Zapier or n8n.
• Schedules: refresh your creator lists daily or weekly with Apify Schedules.

❓ FAQ

Do I pay for profiles without an email? No. Only rows with status: success are charged, $0.10 each. The run start fee is $0.0001.

Where do the emails come from? From our creator database, built from public sources: profile bios, linked websites and link pages, and other public data about the creator. It is not limited to what one bio shows right now.

Can I mix platforms in one run? Yes. Use profile URLs and the platform is detected for each line. Bare usernames and numeric IDs need the Platform option, since natgeo could exist on several platforms.

I used the single-profile input before. Do I need to change anything? No. platform + user_id / username / url still works and returns the same fields. To check many profiles at once, put them in Profiles instead of starting one run per profile.

Is this data public? The emails come from public sources where creators and businesses publish them for contact. Use them for relevant outreach and follow the anti-spam laws that apply to you (CAN-SPAM, GDPR and similar).
