Why switch?

Socify

  • 100 free credits every month
  • Pay only when lookups succeed
  • 99.97% uptime SLA · live on /status
  • Nine platforms, same schema
  • No concurrency ceiling
  • One Bearer + JSON envelope

ScrapeCreators

  • One-time free credit pack
  • Weaker contractual SLA story
  • Broad API surface to learn
  • Per-product limit knobs
  • Credits risk on failed paths
  • Less agent-first positioning

The free-tier cliff: one-time free credits and a broader catalog tax.

ScrapeCreators hands you a one-shot free pack and a wide API surface. Production agents usually want renewing monthly credits, a published uptime SLA, and a tighter social-only envelope.

On Socify free credits renew monthly and unsuccessful lookups are not charged. You keep a tight social envelope as you scale.

Switching from ScrapeCreators.

What is Socify?

Socify is a social-data API for builders and agents: nine major networks, credits as the only hard quota, a published uptime SLA, and one Bearer + JSON envelope across every plan.

How do I move from ScrapeCreators to Socify?

Mint a Socify Bearer key and remap ScrapeCreators clients to /api/v1/{platform}/{resource} on the overlapping networks.

Will Socify cover the same surface ScrapeCreators does?

ScrapeCreators spans a broader API catalog; Socify focuses on nine major social networks with one schema on every plan.

How close is Socify’s API to ScrapeCreators’s?

Both are REST social scrapers; expect field mapping rather than a drop-in swap. Socify uses one Bearer + JSON envelope.

Can I run Socify alongside ScrapeCreators before cutting over?

Yes. Keep ScrapeCreators on production paths while you shadow-read through Socify on the overlapping platforms. Compare payloads and latency, then flip traffic when you are ready: no need for a big-bang cutover.
