About Lemon8 Feeds Scraper

Need to track trends or gather data from Lemon8? This scraper pulls posts, images, videos, comments, and even post-level analytics directly from the platform. It works across all 22 content categories and more than 10 different regions, so you're not limited to just one market or topic. One of the best parts is how it handles infinite scrolling—it just keeps going, capturing everything in a feed without you having to babysit it. It downloads the full media files, not just links, and digs into the comments with detailed extraction. I've used it for a few projects where I needed to analyze content performance or monitor brand mentions, and it saved me a ton of manual work. Whether you're a researcher studying social media patterns, a marketer analyzing competitors, or a developer building a dataset, this tool gets you the structured data you need without the hassle.
