Compared to alternatives

• vs other Truth Social scrapers on the Store — profile and post rows come back in one flat dataset with consistent field names, ready for CSV or JSON export.
• vs building your own — no infrastructure to run or maintain; paste handles and consume the dataset.

Limitations

• Public accounts and posts only — private content is out of scope.
• Up to 40 recent posts per account per run; older posts are not paged.
• Trending topics are not available yet; trends mode returns profiles only.
• Not affiliated with Truth Social or TMTG.
• bio can be empty HTML markup (e.g. <p></p>) when an account hasn't filled in a bio.

FAQ

Do I need an account or cookies?

No — the Actor reads public data only. There is no login to configure and no account to risk.

What happens when a handle is not found?

If a handle can't be found, the dataset gets a row for that handle with error: "lookup_failed", and the run continues with the remaining handles.

Can I run it on a schedule?

Yes — attach an Apify schedule or use the saved tasks to re-run the same inputs daily or weekly.
