Example prompt: Can you get me the transcript of what's being said in this Instagram reel? Here's the URL: https://www.instagram.com/reel/ABC123xyz/

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to extract spoken or captioned text from a specific Instagram post or reel without authentication or a subscription. It's ideal for one-off or low-volume transcript extraction where pay-per-request ($0.06 USDC) is preferable to a recurring API subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or inaccessible Instagram URL returns an error
- Private Instagram accounts may not be accessible
- Reels with no spoken content or only music may return empty or partial transcripts
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns a 402 error
- Deleted or expired posts return a not-found error

## How this service works

Pay-per-request access to social media data from TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, and LinkedIn. No auth, no subscriptions.
