Customers

Teams building on Social Fetch.

“Our TikTok and Instagram scrapers broke constantly. Social Fetch took us off that rotation — we ship product again.”

Daniel Reeve · Founder, Social Crow

  • “Transcripts at volume from one endpoint. No broken scrapers for our small team to maintain.”

    Marcus Lin · Founder, Voice Gecko

  • “Live profile data on every request. We never flag accounts from a stale cache.”

    Hannah Webb · Founder, Scam Finder

  • “Heavy concurrent load, no rate limits to negotiate. The rare API I haven't wrapped in retries.”

    Owen Pritchard · Founder, IP Flare

FAQ

Common questions

Is the free trial a real API?

Yes. The 100 included requests use the same live endpoints and response shapes as paid usage — not mocked data.

How fresh is the data?

Each request fetches publicly available data at request time. The current rolling average response time is ~3.2s.

What happens after the 100 free requests?

Buy a one-time credit pack or choose a monthly plan. Pay-as-you-go credits never expire.

Are there rate limits?

There is no published RPS cap on paid metered routes — your credit balance is the limit. Stay below 200 requests in flight per workspace and retry temporary 503 responses with backoff.

Can I use this in production?

Yes. Versioned routes, predictable JSON, explicit lookup statuses, and request IDs are built for production pipelines rather than demos.

Can my team share one account?

Yes, from Growth up. Pay as you go and Starter are just you. On Growth and Scale, invite teammates to your workspace from Settings. Everyone signs in with their own account, shares one credit balance and one bill, and creates their own API keys. Owners and admins can see who is spending what.

Do I pay per seat?

No. There is no per-seat price. Team members depend on the plan: just you on Pay as you go and Starter, up to 5 on Growth and up to 25 on Scale. People who only need to see billing don't use a seat.

What happens to a teammate's API keys when they leave?

They stop working immediately, and the workspace is not charged for anything further from them.

Can I limit what one key spends?

Yes. Owners and admins can set a monthly credit limit on any key.

What about compliance?

Social Fetch returns publicly available data. You are responsible for how you use it under your contracts, platform terms, and applicable law. See the privacy, security, DPA, and subprocessors pages for details.
