Get the full follower or following list from any X (Twitter) profile. You get clean lead data for each account: handle, name, bio, email, website, location, follower and following counts, and verified status.

This actor uses your own X login, so it can reach the full lists that tools without a login cannot.

Please read first: the risk is yours

This tool logs in as you, using your own account. X does not allow automated scraping. If X notices, your account can be limited or even shut down for good. That risk falls on you, not on us.

So please:

  • Use a spare account, not your main one. Never use an account you care about.
  • Keep runs small at first. Big pulls raise the risk.
  • Stop if X starts slowing you down. Give the account a long rest.

This tool only reads. It never posts, follows, likes, or changes anything on your account.

What you can do

  • Pull followers of any public profile.
  • Pull who a profile is following.
  • Pull verified followers only for higher quality leads.
  • Run many profiles in one go. Paste handles or full links.

What you get back

One row per account, ready for outreach:

FieldMeaning
usernameThe @handle
fullNameDisplay name
bioEmailAn email the person put in their public bio, if any (we never pull private emails)
websiteLink in the bio
locationThe location they typed on their profile
followersCount / followingCountAccount size
isVerifiedHas a blue check
bioProfile bio text
sourceThe profile this account came from
relationfollowers, following, or verified_followers

There are two table views: Accounts (everything) and Bio emails (a short view for outreach).

You bring your own X login

You paste your own X login (your cookies) into one field. The actor acts as you, so it sees the same lists you can see when logged in. We use it only for the run and never store it.

How to get your cookies in one click

  1. Add the free Cookie-Editor browser add-on (get it here).
  2. Log in to X with a spare account, then open x.com.
  3. Click the Cookie-Editor icon, press Export → As JSON, and paste into the Your X cookies field.

That is it. One paste.

You only do this once (reuse for weeks)

You do not need to keep the tab open, stay on the page, or paste again each run. The cookies work on their own from our side, even after you close the browser. Save your settings as a Task and run it again any day.

The one thing that breaks them is clicking Log out on that account, or X ending the session for safety (this can happen after a few weeks, or sooner under heavy use). So do not log out. If the cookies ever stop working, just export fresh ones the same way.

(If you prefer, you can also paste a raw cookie string that includes auth_token and ct0. The actor reads either one.)

How long it takes

  • The first 15 to 20 seconds of each run is the actor starting up.
  • After that, plan for about 10,000 to 15,000 accounts per hour. X sets this speed, not us, and we keep it steady to protect your account.
  • Small pulls are quick: a few hundred in well under a minute, a few thousand in a few minutes.
  • Very large accounts can run for hours. Raise the run timeout for those, or pull in batches.

Pricing

You pay per account we return. If a profile has no results, you pay nothing. There is no start fee.

Notes

  • A home-country residential proxy is on by default. It lowers the risk to your account but cannot remove it. Pick a country that matches your account.
  • Big lists take time. X limits how fast one login can read, so plan on roughly 10,000 to 15,000 accounts per hour. We go slowly on purpose so your account stays healthy.
  • Very large accounts (hundreds of thousands or millions of followers) will not finish in one run. Raise the run timeout, pull in batches across runs, and expect X to stop handing over more after a while. This is an X limit, not a bug, and it is the same for every tool that uses one login.
  • The Verified followers only mode is the fastest way to get high quality leads from a huge account, since that list is much smaller.
