Features

  • Real-time Instagram data — results are fetched live at run time, never cached or stale
  • No login, cookies, or proxy configuration needed — just provide the input and run
  • Each result is pushed as a separate dataset item, exportable as JSON, CSV, or Excel
  • Fast: a typical run finishes in seconds

Pricing

This Actor is billed per run — a flat $0.006 per run.

  • One run returns all matching results for your input, and costs $0.006 — whether it comes back with one result or hundreds.
  • You’re only charged when a run succeeds. Failed runs are free.
