Frequently Asked Questions

Is it legal to scrape Instagram post comments?

Yes — it's entirely legal to scrape publicly accessible data. We only collect comments that are visible to logged-in users and not disabled by the post owner. For more details, see our guide on the legality of web scraping.

What data do you extract from each comment?

We collect 20+ attributes per comment, including full comment text, commenter username, profile URL, profile pic, likes count, replies count, timestamps, verified status and parent comment ID for threaded replies.

Does it capture replies to comments?

Yes. We extract both top-level comments and child replies, with a parent comment ID linking each reply to its original comment.

Can I get the commenter's profile info?

Yes — we extract the username, profile URL, profile pic, verified status and private/public flag for every commenter.

How many comments can I scrape and how fast is it?

All of them. We collect every comment on a post at a speed of up to 300 comments per minute. 1 credit = 1 comment — pricing depends on your plan, try the simulator here.

Can I tell if a comment is from a verified account?

Yes. We extract the ownerisverified flag for every commenter, so you can filter for verified accounts in your data.
