About 🚀 Instagram Followers and Following Scrapper

Need to analyze an Instagram audience but dread the manual work? This scraper pulls followers and following lists from any public profile, so you can focus on the insights, not the data entry. I built this because I needed a reliable way to gather this data for client research. It runs fast—you can expect around 500 followers per minute—and it’s built to handle Instagram’s restrictions. It uses smart delays and mimics real browsing behavior to avoid blocks, and you can route requests through proxies if you're working at scale. You also have control over pagination to grab exactly the amount of data you need. The output gives you detailed user lists, which is perfect for a few key jobs: understanding a competitor's audience, identifying potential leads in a niche, or analyzing community growth over time. It's become a go-to for my own market research and building targeted outreach lists. Just plug in a profile name, configure your run, and get clean, structured data delivered. It automates the tedious part, letting you get back to the actual strategy.
