Need to find real creators and writers on Substack without the manual grind? This scraper does the heavy lifting for you. Just feed it a keyword, and it pulls detailed public profiles directly from the platform. You'll get the essentials: the person's name, Substack handle, bio, and their social links. But it goes deeper, grabbing their list of publications and even when they set up their account, which is great for spotting established voices or fresh talent. I use this to build targeted lead lists for outreach and to research competitors or collaborators in specific niches. The data comes out structured and ready to go. You can easily pipe it into a Google Sheet via the Google Drive integration to sort, filter, and start working with it immediately. It’s a straightforward way to automate what would otherwise be hours of tedious copying and pasting, letting you focus on actually connecting with people or analyzing the data. For the price, it’s one of the most cost-effective ways to get clean Substack people data into your workflow.
