Veedcrawl is a REST API and MCP server that lets your code and AI agents understand public social media videos. Point it at any YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X/Twitter, or Facebook URL and it returns clean, normalized data — video facts, spoken transcripts, or structured answers extracted from the content — without you building platform-specific scrapers.

​
Supported platforms

Veedcrawl reads public videos from five platforms through a single, consistent API surface:
  • YouTube
  • TikTok
  • Instagram
  • X / Twitter
  • Facebook

​
Core capabilities

Every Veedcrawl request falls into one of three tiers. Start with the cheapest one that answers your question.
CapabilityEndpointCostWhat you get
MetadataGET /v1/metadataFreeTitle, author, view count, like count, duration, thumbnail, platform
TranscriptPOST /v1/transcript1–5 creditsFull spoken text with timestamps — native captions or AI-generated
ExtractPOST /v1/extract10 creditsA structured answer to any prompt you write about the video
Use metadata as a cheap first pass. Only invoke transcript or extract when you know the video is worth deeper processing.

​
What you can build

AI agent tools

Connect the Veedcrawl MCP server to Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible host. Your agent can pull video data, transcripts, and extraction results from natural language.

Creator research

Feed a TikTok or Instagram username into the profile endpoints and get back 24 recent videos with per-post engagement stats — no video URLs needed up front.

Competitive analysis

Pull the last 24 posts from multiple competitor accounts in parallel, compare posting frequency, average views, and top hashtags across all of them at once.

Content pipelines

Drop Veedcrawl into analytics jobs, moderation tooling, internal search, or RAG systems. The same API and response shape works for all five platforms.
New accounts receive 50 free credits on signup — enough to run hundreds of metadata lookups, dozens of transcripts, or a handful of extract jobs while you evaluate the API.
