Threads Lead Generator & Social Listening

Stop wasting hours manually scrolling through Threads to find potential customers. Threads Lead Generator is built to help growth hackers, sales teams, and AI developers instantly extract high-intent leads and market sentiment from Threads—without logging in and without risking your own accounts.

🎯 What pain points does this solve?

1. "I need leads, but my competitor is using the same LinkedIn scrapers." Threads is an untapped goldmine for organic, authentic conversations. People here complain about software, ask for recommendations, and discuss pain points openly. This Actor lets you harvest this blue ocean before it gets crowded.

2. "I don't want to get my personal account banned." Most scrapers require your session cookies, putting your personal or brand accounts at massive risk. This Actor is 100% cookie-free. You provide the keywords, and we do the invisible heavy lifting.

3. "I need clean data for my AI / RAG pipelines." LLMs hate messy HTML. We extract, clean, and structure the data (Author, Post URL, Timestamp, Clean Text, and Metrics) into perfect JSON/CSV format. Feed it directly to your OpenAI/Anthropic workflows for sentiment analysis or auto-reply generation.

✨ Features

• Keyword Targeting: Input multiple exact intent niches like "looking for CRM", "SaaS recommendation", "hiring a web developer", or "Polymarket".
• No Login / No Cookies Required: Zero risk of bans.
• Pagination & Deep Scraping: Automatically scrolls to extract up to your defined limit per keyword.
• Clean Output: Structured JSON/CSV stripped of UI noise.

⚠️ CRITICAL: PROXY SETTINGS
