Bluesky Scraper — Posts, Profiles & Followers API

Scrape public Bluesky data — no login required. Built on Bluesky's official AT Protocol API, this scraper pulls an account's posts, profile, followers, and following into clean structured records. Perfect for social research, competitor monitoring, and building datasets on the fast-growing Bluesky network.

What it does

• Posts — an account's author feed with text, timestamps, and engagement (likes, reposts, replies, quotes).
• Profile — display name, description, and follower / following / post counts.
• Followers / Following — the accounts connected to a handle.
• No auth — uses the public AppView API; just provide handles.

Use cases

• Social monitoring — track an account's posts and reach on Bluesky.
• Audience research — export a handle's followers / following.
• Datasets — collect posts for sentiment, trends, or LLM training.
• Migration tracking — follow the growth of accounts moving to Bluesky.

Input

Field	Description
handles	Bluesky handles (e.g. bsky.app) or profile URLs.

Notes

• Uses Bluesky's official public AT Protocol API — reads public, logged-out data only.
• Keyword search across the whole network requires Bluesky authentication (an app password) and is on the roadmap; this version focuses on keyless, per-account scraping.
