X (Twitter) Followers Contact Extractor - Emails & Websites

Turn any X (Twitter) audience into a contact list. Enter an account, and the actor scans its followers (or the accounts it follows) and returns every profile that exposes an email address, website, or social link in its bio - filtered by keyword, location, follower count, and verification. No login or cookies required.

What you get

One row per profile with contact info:

• Emails found in the bio
• Websites - the profile link and any URLs in the bio, with t.co short links resolved to real URLs
• Social links - Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok, GitHub, Telegram, Linktree and more, kept separate from websites
• Matched keywords - which of your bio keywords each profile hit
• Username, display name, bio, location, follower/following/tweet counts, verification, account creation date, DM-open flag, profile picture and profile URL
• A resume cursor so you can keep scanning a huge follower list across multiple runs
• Export to JSON, CSV, Excel, or Google Sheets from the Apify console

Use cases

• Lead generation - pull emails and websites from the followers of a competitor, industry account, or event
• Influencer and creator outreach - find creators in a niche with a contact email in their bio
• B2B prospecting - filter followers by bio keywords like "founder", "CEO", "agency" and export their websites
• Partnership and PR lists - collect the sites and socials of everyone following a brand
• Recruiting - find developers, designers, or marketers following a company account, with portfolio links

How to use

1. Enter the X username (with or without @; profile URLs work too)
2. Choose Followers, Following, or Both
3. Optionally tick Only profiles with an email or Only profiles with a website
4. Optionally add Bio keywords, Location keywords, a Minimum followers threshold, or Only verified accounts
5. Set Max contacts to return (default 500) and Max profiles to scan (default 20,000)
6. Run the actor - results appear in the Dataset tab

Only a small share of profiles list an email (typically 1-3%), so the actor scans many more profiles than it returns. Scanning is fast and cheap; you are only charged for contacts actually returned.

Scanning very large lists

After the run finishes, open the Key-value store tab, copy the NEXT_PAGE_ID value, and paste it into Page ID on your next run to continue where you left off. If NEXT_PAGE_ID is null, the whole list has been scanned.

FAQ

Do I need to log in or provide cookies? No. No login, no cookies, no risk to your own account.

Why are there fewer results than profiles scanned? Most X users don't put contact details in their bio. The actor keeps scanning until it finds your requested number of contacts or hits the scan limit.

Can I get every follower, not just ones with contact info? Use the X Followers & Following Scraper for the full list.
