❓ FAQ

Do I need a Bluesky account or app password? No. It uses the official public AppView API (public.api.bsky.app) for public data — no login required.

Will it get blocked? It uses the sanctioned public API and backs off automatically on rate limits, so it's very reliable.

How is it priced? Pay per result — you're charged per profile, post, or user returned. No subscription.
