## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need fast, reliable access to public Instagram data without using the official Instagram Graph API, especially for profiles, posts, or hashtags at $0.1 USDC per call via x402 micropayments on Base chain. Prefer this over browser-based scraping or manual extraction when you need structured data programmatically.

## Known failure modes

- Rate limiting from Instagram anti-scraping measures — may return incomplete data
- Invalid username or URL input — returns error in result object
