The test confirms the input, output and per-row charging. It does not guarantee identical speed or coverage for every account.

The important distinction

Followers and following answer different questions

Keep both lists separate: one represents incoming audience relationships, while the other reflects accounts selected by the target.

followers

  • Profiles that follow the target account.
  • Useful for characterizing an audience sample.
  • Does not prove each profile is a customer or active.

followings

  • Profiles followed by the target account.
  • Useful for exploring public sources, peers and affinities.
  • Does not equal a commercial endorsement.
Multiple accountsThe input accepts a username list.
Up to 10,000Requested results per input line.

Quick calculator

Estimate rows and charge before running

Compare the public starting price with the effective rate observed in our test.

Project volume

Requesting both lists doubles maximum output because each mode runs separately.

When it helps

Three research questions

Which profiles follow multiple accounts?

Compare samples and find overlap using user_id.

What profile types appear?

Classify bios and locations while reporting missing data and sample bias.

Who do category leaders follow?

Explore followings as a signal of public sources and affinities.

A public relationship is not consent

Do not use the list for spam, surveillance or sensitive decisions. Minimize data and respect terms, privacy and applicable law.

Frequently asked questions

Before scaling

Are followers and following the same?

No. followers returns profiles following the target; followings returns accounts followed by the target.

Can I process multiple accounts?

Yes. Input_Search accepts a list and applies the same mode and limit to every username.

Are 10,000 profiles guaranteed?

No. That is the configurable maximum per line. Public availability, privacy and source limits may reduce output.

Why does the calculator show two prices?

Apify listed pricing from $0.14 per 1,000. FlujoDato's test recorded five events for $0.001, equivalent to $0.20 per 1,000. Your rate may include discounts.

Does this Actor download posts?

No. Use our X posts and replies guide for timelines, searches and conversations.
