What Makes This API Special

Reels & IGTV Support

Works on Reels, standard video posts, IGTV videos, and story highlights. One endpoint, all formats.

AI Audio Transcription

Instagram rarely provides captions. Our AI model transcribes speech with high accuracy across all major languages.

Rich Metadata

Get caption text, hashtags, mention tags, like counts, comment counts, and posting date alongside the transcript.

Creator Profile Data

Pull follower count, biography, and engagement rate for the posting account in the same request.

Story Transcript Support

Access transcripts from saved Stories and Highlights to analyze ephemeral content strategy.

Cached for Speed

Popular content is cached — frequently-accessed Reels are served from cache near-instantly on repeat requests.

Instagram Transcript API Questions

Do I need an Instagram account to use this?

No. We access public content without requiring you to provide Instagram credentials.

Does it work on private Instagram accounts?

Only public posts are accessible. Private accounts require session authentication, available on Pro/Scale plans.

Can I get transcripts for Instagram Stories?

Active Stories cannot be accessed. Saved Highlights are supported for public accounts.

What languages are supported?

40+ languages including Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, French, German, Japanese, Hindi, and more.

How is this different from the Instagram API?

The official Instagram API does not provide transcripts. SupaCrawlX fills this gap with AI transcription of any public video.
