or you could connect to instead and do this for half the cost

has anyone tried this yet or it this just another gimmick

We've got a bunch of DTC tools and automations like this built into @typedotcom with free credits!

Can use apify for scarping they $500 in free credits, also works super well with Ghostfeed MCP if you want to create clone content

The real advantage is not scraping more creators, but replacing vanity metrics with comparable engagement and contact intelligence that improves who you actually approach.

The scraping side is solved. The real time-sink is the step after: which of those 200 creators will actually hit a brief on time and not ghost after the product ships. Would love to see someone crack vetting for reliability, not just reach.

Influencer marketing platforms charging $1,500/month watching a CLI terminal obliterate their entire SaaS business model with one free MCP connector.

real engagement rate beats follower count

Wow! Does it also match the audience? If not, I’d transcribe the videos as well to shortlist influencers who align with the brand’s voice and mission.

Dude, this is crazy.

The interesting next step is making the connected tools legible: what they can access, what permissions they need, and whether the workflow is reproducible for another user. “Works once” is a very low bar for agent workflows.

informative

Follower count is such a weak signal. Actual engagement plus recent content gives you a much better shortlist.

Finding creators was never the bottleneck. Getting them to reply is. Though pulling real engagement at least stops you pitching someone whose followers are bought.

Days of manual sourcing gone, that's huge 🙌

influencer platforms discovering Claude has outbound now comment-mined hooks still need a place to go -

Code is Good. But don't forget to research, fact check, whet, and be the human in the loop. Don't automate everything. Then you will never stand out.

this is the real shift, agents doing the actual client work instead of just another dashboard

looks like a huge time saver for creator sourcing, especially when you need reliable engagement data across platforms

Will it work for X too? 👀

👀👀

same actor, new scenes — honestly the consistency is the whole cheat code lol

Thousands of creator profiles pulled from one niche run makes me wonder what rate limiting ScrapeCreators hits before Instagram starts blocking the requests.

finding the creators is half the job, the other half is having creative ready when they say yes 😄 that part's solved too, Sogni Creative Agent renders the assets inside the same claude setup: npx setup-sogni-agent-skill

Seems illegal at first
