## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need live, up-to-date public Instagram profile data for a specific username, especially for influencer research or vetting. Prefer this over manual scraping or general social media APIs when you need quick per-profile lookups with pay-per-call pricing.

## Known failure modes

- Profile not found — username does not exist or is private
- Rate limiting if too many requests are made
- Payment failure — insufficient USDC balance for x402 microtransaction
- Invalid username format returns an error
- Instagram account may have been deleted or suspended
