How this service works
Search Apify Store actors, start actor runs, and fetch results over x402 and MPP.
Output
Returns structured data from the Apify actor run, including the follower count and available profile-level stats (such as following count, post count, and bio details) for each requested Instagram username. Results are returned synchronously after the actor run completes.
Example use cases
Influencer vetting for brand campaign
“I'm evaluating three influencers for a campaign — can you pull the current Instagram follower counts for cristiano, kyliejenner, and leomessi so I can compare their audience sizes?”
Competitor social media benchmarking
“Pull the Instagram follower counts for nike, adidas, and underarmour so I can benchmark our brand's social reach against the competition.”
Tracking a new account's growth
“Can you check the follower count on the Instagram account 'morningbloomcafe' for me? I want to see how many followers they have today.”

Endpoint
POSThttps://stableapify.dev/api/actors/apify/instagram-followers-count-scraper/callWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need programmatic, on-demand access to Instagram follower counts without an official Instagram API token or developer account. It is ideal for bulk lookups across multiple usernames in a single call, competitive benchmarking, influencer discovery pipelines, or any workflow that needs fresh public Instagram follower data without building and maintaining a custom scraper.
Side effects
- Private or non-existent Instagram accounts may return empty or error results
- Instagram rate limiting or anti-bot measures may cause actor runs to fail or return partial data
- Invalid username format may cause input validation errors
- Payment failure via x402/MPP will prevent the run from starting
- Actor timeout if Instagram is slow or the username list is very large
