# Creator profile: cross-platform influencer lookup

Creator profile is a ready-made SocialToAI tool that returns one creator across platforms: the accounts found for the same person, with followers, posts, engagement and how strong the evidence is that each is theirs. A run costs from 14 credits and is priced before it starts; a run that fetches nothing is not charged. Run it here, in your AI over MCP, or over the API.

## What it takes

| Name | Type | Required | What it is |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `creator` | string | Yes | A link to the creator's page. |
| `platforms` | string[] | No | The other platforms to look on: up to 3, or 6 with scale medium. Left out: the usual three for the platform the creator starts on, as far as each is offered; the answer names them. |
| `scale` | string | No | medium adds a sample of the comments under the creator's latest posts and, where the platform has one, the creator's marketplace profile. `"small"` `"medium"` (default `"small"`) |
| `max_cost_credits` | integer | No | Refused, free, with the quote, if the run would cost more. |
| `confirm` | boolean | No | true: run it whatever it costs. false: answer the plan and its price, and run nothing. Left out: a costly run, and one that runs in the background, answers its price first. |

## What comes back

| Part | What it holds |
| --- | --- |
| Accounts by platform | The accounts found on each platform, with followers, posts and engagement. |
| Identity evidence | How strong the evidence is that each account belongs to the same person. Without links that point at each other, the most it says is “likely”. |

Main number: Followers across platforms. Every result states how much of the plan was read and which parts of the price were charged.

## Depths and credits

| Depth | What it reads | From (credits) | How it runs | On the 100 free credits |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Small | Looks on up to 3 other platforms. | 14 | runs while you wait | Yes |
| Medium | Looks on up to 6 other platforms, samples the comments under 3 recent posts, and adds the creator marketplace profile where the platform has one. | 34 | runs while you wait | On 9 of 11 platforms |

## Credits by platform

The table is for one creator, starting on this platform, looked for on the default platforms. For several links the total is stated before the run.

| Platform | Small | Medium |
| --- | --- | --- |
| TikTok | 35 | 59 |
| Instagram | 22 | 34 |
| X | 22 | 46 |
| Reddit | 35 | 47 |
| Facebook | 35 | 47 |
| LinkedIn | 35 | — |
| Threads | 35 | — |
| Telegram | 35 | — |
| Xiaohongshu | 46 | — |
| Douyin | 14 | 38 |
| WeChat Articles | 46 | 100 |
| Bilibili | 22 | 46 |
| Zhihu | 26 | 44 |
| Kuaishou | 46 | 76 |
| WeChat Channels | 46 | 100 |

## How credits are counted

- **You see the price first**: The total is stated before anything starts. It does not grow if there is more to read.
- **Nothing fetched, nothing charged**: If nothing could be fetched, the run is not charged. If it stops partway, you are charged only for the part that finished.
- **Each depth is one price**: A depth has a fixed price on each platform. It is not reduced when there turns out to be less to read, so start small and go deeper when you need more.

## FAQ

**What does a run cost?**

From 14 credits at the Small depth, for one creator, starting on this platform, looked for on the default platforms. The price depends on the depth and the platform, and the table on this page has every number. You see the total before anything runs, and a run never costs more than that.

**What am I charged if a run finds nothing or stops partway?**

If nothing could be fetched, the run is not charged. If content was fetched but the conditions you set filtered all of it out, only the first half of the fetching price is charged. If a run stops partway, you are charged only for the part that finished.

**What happens when a platform fails?**

The run goes on with what could be read, and the result says how much of the plan that was. The price has three parts: two for fetching and one for the AI analysis. When less than half of the planned reading came back, the second fetching part is not charged. The analysis part is charged only when at least nine in ten of the delivered rows were analysed. A call whose outcome is unknown is never retried on our own.

**Which platforms does it cover?**

15 platforms now: TikTok, Instagram, X, Reddit, Facebook, LinkedIn, Threads, Telegram, Xiaohongshu, Douyin, WeChat Articles, Bilibili, Zhihu, Kuaishou, WeChat Channels. A run starts from a page on one of them and looks on the others you name.

**Can I run it on the free credits?**

Sign-up includes 100 credits, no card. They can run: Small; Medium on 9 of 11 platforms. Running a tool on a schedule is available after your first purchase.
