Scrape public GitHub user profiles — no login, no API token, no rate-limit headaches from the GitHub REST API. Returns name, bio, company, location, website, Twitter/X handle, followers/following counts, public repo count, and pinned repo names.
Input
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
username | string | A single GitHub username, e.g. torvalds |
usernames | array | Optional: several usernames at once |
maxItems | integer | Max profiles to scrape (default 20) |
Example:
{"usernames": ["torvalds", "gaearon", "sindresorhus"],"maxItems": 20}
Output
{"username": "torvalds","name": "Linus Torvalds","bio": null,"company": "Linux Foundation","location": "Portland, OR","websiteUrl": null,"twitterHandle": null,"followers": 235000,"following": 0,"publicRepos": 9,"pinnedRepos": ["linux", "subsurface-for-dirk", "test-tlb"],"profileUrl": "https://github.com/torvalds","scrapedAt": "2026-07-17T00:00:00.000Z"}
Common uses
- Sourcing/recruiting research on developers
- Enriching a list of GitHub usernames with profile metadata
- Tracking follower growth or pinned-repo changes over time
- Open-source contributor and maintainer research
Notes
If a username doesn't exist, the output row for it will contain error: "not-found" instead of profile fields. Follower/following/repo counts are read from GitHub's exact title attribute when available, falling back to parsing abbreviated display text (e.g. "1.2k") otherwise.
