Get Instagram and TikTok data with 100 free requests. We build production Instagram API and TikTok API services, open-source Python libraries (instagrapi, aiograpi), MCP servers for AI assistants like Claude Code and Cursor, and Telegram bots for content downloads and OSINT workflows.
Start here:
- HikerAPI — Instagram API for profiles, posts, stories, reels, followers, and OSINT workflows
- Lamatok — TikTok API for videos, profiles, comments, hashtags, and automation workflows
- Datalikers — Instagram & TikTok datasets, MCP server, and cached API for data-heavy workflows
Get Instagram data in 3 lines with the Python client:
pip install hikerapifrom hikerapi import Client
cl = Client(token="<ACCESS_KEY>")
user = cl.user_by_username_v2("instagram")Grab a free token (100 requests) at hikerapi.com.
Use our MCP servers from Cursor, Claude Code, Claude Desktop, OpenAI Codex, Zed, and Windsurf.
