Use Upscrape to look up @instagram on Threads. How many followers and threads does it have?
With Upscrape, open threads.com/@instagram/post/DeRpgdFlhJa and tell me its likes, replies, reposts and quotes.
Using Upscrape, get Mark Zuckerberg's (@zuck) latest media posts on Threads and rank them by likes.
The short answers. The docs have the long ones.
Meta's Threads API is built for managing your own account, and it needs app review. Upscrape reads public Threads pages, so you can look up any public profile, post or tag with one API key.
No. You send a handle, a link or a tag and get JSON back. Nothing runs on your account, and you share no password or cookie. Private profiles are not part of it.
Yes. The post and profile feed endpoints return likes, replies, reposts and quotes for each post.
Profile, post, profile feed, tag, search, user search, post replies, profile media posts and home feed. Each is its own endpoint with a published input schema, and the response is JSON.
Every Threads endpoint costs 1 credit per successful call. You buy credits once, with no subscription, and paid credits never expire. New accounts get free credits to try it.
Yes. Connect any MCP client to the Upscrape MCP server with OAuth or an API key. The agent finds the Threads endpoint, checks its price and runs it with the same credits as the REST API.
Upscrape reads public pages only and needs no login. How you use the data is yours to decide under the laws that apply to you; we sign a data processing agreement for your legal review.
We fix the endpoint. Your request and the response fields stay the same.
Up to 100 free credits to start, no card needed.
