An API for public social media data. Profiles, posts, comments, and metrics from Instagram, TikTok, and X, returned in one unified schema with one error model. You integrate once and every platform answers the same way.

Which platforms are covered?

Instagram, TikTok, and X are live with deep endpoint coverage. More platforms are added based on what customers request.

Why does Openhandle have fields other providers miss?

Answers are enriched from multiple sources in a single request, so fields like share counts come back filled where others return nothing. It is still one request at one price.

Can my AI agent use it?

Yes. There is an MCP server at api.openhandle.dev/mcp, an OpenAPI spec at api.openhandle.dev/openapi.json, and every docs page is available as markdown by appending .md to the URL.

You pay afterwards for what you used. Every endpoint costs the same, one call is one request, and rates drop with volume. Failed requests are free; a confirmed not-found is a completed lookup and is billed. Every rate is published on the pricing page, and you start with 100 free requests without a card.

Do I get proper invoices?

Yes. Pay after use. Every charge includes an invoice. Card payment, no wallet top-ups.

Fetch anything you want from Instagram, TikTok, and X.

Openhandle returns public profiles, posts, comments, and metrics through one API. Responses use one format and usually arrive within one second. Pay only for completed requests. No credits or subscriptions.

We don’t charge for failures

If we cannot complete a request, you get a clear error and pay nothing.

Billing

You always know what you’ll pay.

Simple prices, hard caps, and the invoice comes afterwards. Here is what a month looks like.

01
Every endpoint costs the same
Profiles, posts, comments: same price. Your bill is requests times price, nothing else.
02
Failed requests are free
We only charge when you get a result. The 1,323 failures this month cost $0.00.
03
The cap is a hard stop
Set caps per API key and for the whole account. We stop before the cap, so you never exceed your budget.
04
The invoice comes afterwards
No credits, no top-ups. Pay after use. Every charge includes an invoice.
