🎙️ Instagram Transcripts Scraper API

Turn Instagram videos into clean, structured transcripts with ease.
This API helps you extract spoken content (auto-generated transcripts) from public Instagram videos — designed for developers, data teams, and AI agents that need text, not just media.

📌 Overview

The Instagram Transcripts Scraper API allows you to provide an Instagram video URL and receive:

• 📝 Accurate auto-generated transcript text
• ⏱️ Timestamped segments for precise alignment
• 📊 Rich video & author metadata
• 🎥 Direct video and audio URLs (when available)

It is built to be AI-ready, automation-friendly, and cost-effective, making it ideal for large-scale content processing and language-focused workflows.

⚠️ This API works with public Instagram videos. A valid sessionid may be required for stable access.

🎁 What You Can Get From This API

For each Instagram video URL, the API returns:

• ✅ Full transcript text (auto speech-to-text)
• ✅ Segmented transcript with timestamps
• ✅ Video title & thumbnail
• ✅ Video, audio playback URLs
• ✅ Engagement metrics (likes, comments)
• ✅ Creator profile information
• ✅ Error status per request (safe for automation)

All data is returned in structured JSON, ready to feed directly into databases, AI pipelines, or downstream services.

🧩 Typical Use Cases

• 🧠 Content understanding & summarization
• 🔍 Social media content analysis
• 🎧 Audio-to-text & subtitle generation
• 📊 Trend and language research
