Social Fetch is the social media data API for teams that need to ship features, not maintain scrapers.
Every major platform changes its DOM, blocks proxies, and breaks homegrown integrations. Social Fetch handles that infrastructure โ headless browsers, rate limits, normalization โ so you get clean, live JSON back on every request. No stale cache. No per-platform parsers in your codebase.
What you can fetch: profiles and follower data, posts and reels, comments and threads, video transcripts, hashtag/keyword search, ad library intelligence, and engagement metrics โ across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, X, LinkedIn, Facebook, Reddit, Threads, GitHub, Spotify, and more.
Built for: creator tools, marketing analytics, brand safety and impersonation detection, competitive intelligence, enrichment pipelines, monitoring dashboards, and AI agent workflows. Integrate with cURL, Python, Node, our official TypeScript SDK, or our MCP server for Cursor and Claude.
Pricing: pay-as-you-go credits that never expire. No monthly subscription. Start with 100 free credits โ no credit card required.
Stop spending hours scrolling through Telegram groups looking for leads. LeadGenRunner does it for you.
LeadGenRunner is an AI-powered tool that monitors Telegram groups and channels for buyer-intent messages matching your keywords. When a potential client posts a message, you get an instant notification with the message content, sender info, and a direct link.
What makes it different:

Channel Discovery โ AI finds relevant Telegram groups and channels for your niche automatically, expanding your reach.
Scale Without Hiring โ Monitor 500+ chats simultaneously without additional staff. One person can handle what used to require a team.
Real-Time Analytics โ Track which chats bring the most leads, which keywords perform best, and optimize your strategy with data.

LeadGenRunnerSocialFetch.dev's answer
Social Fetch provides a unified REST API that lets developers collect public data from 20+ social platforms โ TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, X, LinkedIn, Reddit, Facebook, Threads, and more โ using a single consistent JSON schema. There is no need to learn or maintain separate APIs for each network. Credits never expire, and you only pay for what you use, making it ideal for both prototyping and production-scale data pipelines.
LeadGenRunner's answer:
LeadGenRunner is the only tool that combines real-time Telegram group monitoring with AI-powered lead classification. While other tools scrape member lists or require manual searching, LeadGenRunner monitors public messages 24/7 for buyer-intent keywords and uses AI to classify every lead as Hot, Warm, or Cold - so you only focus on prospects ready to buy. It also generates contextual reply suggestions, letting you respond in seconds instead of hours.
SocialFetch.dev's answer
Unlike solutions that require you to set up and maintain separate API integrations for each platform, Social Fetch gives you one API key and one consistent schema across all supported networks. You get the same response structure whether you are fetching TikTok videos, Instagram posts, or YouTube channels. The pay-as-you-go model means no wasted monthly spend on idle subscriptions, and credits never expire so there is no pressure to use them up.
LeadGenRunner's answer:
Three reasons: (1) It's Telegram-native - built specifically for Telegram's ecosystem using the official API, not scrapers that risk account bans. (2) AI does the heavy lifting - instead of reading hundreds of messages yourself, AI classifies leads by intent and urgency, and drafts ready-to-send replies. (3) Scale without hiring - one person can monitor 500+ chats simultaneously, replacing what used to require a team of 3-5 people manually scrolling through groups. Plans start at $9/month with a free 5-day trial, no credit card required.
SocialFetch.dev's answer
Social Fetch is primarily used by developers, data engineers, and growth marketers who need programmatic access to social media data without building and maintaining individual platform integrations. Common use cases include social analytics tools, influencer research platforms, content aggregation pipelines, brand monitoring dashboards, and AI training datasets that require large-scale social content.
LeadGenRunner's answer:
Digital marketing agencies, B2B sales teams, freelancers, and small business owners who use Telegram as a sales channel. Particularly popular with agencies managing client outreach in Telegram communities, crypto/Web3 projects monitoring industry conversations, real estate professionals tracking buyer inquiries, and consultants looking for project opportunities in niche groups. The common thread: they know their ideal clients are posting in Telegram groups right now, but finding those messages manually is unsustainable.
SocialFetch.dev's answer
Social Fetch was founded by Luke Askew, a developer who repeatedly ran into the same problem while building social analytics tools: every platform had a different API, different authentication flows, different rate limits, and different response shapes. Building and maintaining integrations for even a handful of platforms was a significant ongoing burden. Social Fetch was created to solve this by acting as a single abstraction layer, so developers can focus on what they are building rather than on the plumbing beneath it.
LeadGenRunner's answer:
LeadGenRunner was born out of frustration. I was spending 3-4 hours every day scrolling through dozens of Telegram groups looking for potential clients - people asking for recommendations, looking for services, discussing problems I could solve. The messages were there, but finding them was like looking for a needle in a haystack. I built a simple keyword monitor for myself, then added AI classification when I realized that even with keyword matches, 70% of messages were noise. The AI layer changed everything - suddenly I was only seeing high-intent leads. I turned it into a product in 2025, and now it saves users hours every day while finding leads they would have otherwise missed.
SocialFetch.dev's answer
Social Fetch is built on Next.js and TypeScript, deployed on Vercel. The API layer is serverless and runs on edge infrastructure for low latency globally. Data is processed and stored using cloud-native services, and the platform uses tRPC for type-safe internal APIs. The codebase is a TypeScript monorepo, enabling shared types between the API, frontend, and internal tooling.
LeadGenRunner's answer:
LeadGenRunner is a web-based SaaS application built with Python (FastAPI) on the backend and Vue.js on the frontend. It uses the official Telegram API via Pyrogram for real-time message monitoring, OpenAI GPT for AI lead classification and reply generation, and PostgreSQL for data storage. The platform is hosted on cloud infrastructure with real-time WebSocket notifications.
