About
Social Intel API provides programmatic Instagram influencer search at $0.10 per request — no signup, no subscription, no API key. Search by keyword, niche, country, gender, and follower count; get back structured JSON with usernames, emails, and follower data for up to 50 profiles. Payments are via USDC x402 micropayments, and an MCP server endpoint makes it directly callable from agent workflows without a REST client wrapper.
Agent builders and growth marketers running automated influencer prospecting or outreach workflows who need programmatic creator lookup for small-to-medium search volumes without committing to an enterprise influencer platform subscription.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- check $0.10 per search is dramatically cheaper than $299–$799/month SaaS influencer platforms for low-to-medium volume needs
- check No signup required — pay with USDC and call immediately
- check MCP server endpoint works natively with Claude Code and compatible agent runtimes
- check Live demo with `?demo=true` parameter lets you evaluate results before spending anything
- check Returns emails alongside profile data — useful for outreach workflows without a separate enrichment step
Cons
- close Instagram only — no TikTok, YouTube, Twitter, or cross-platform creator discovery
- close $0.10/query adds up at scale; high-volume campaigns could still be expensive
- close x402/USDC payment requirement creates friction for teams without crypto infrastructure
- close No clear explanation of data freshness, sourcing methodology, or Instagram ToS compliance
- close Small team product with limited track record; reliability at production scale is unclear
