Straight answers

How many credits does a search use?: Credits scale with how precise your search is — a quick look uses a few, a highly targeted search uses a few more. Opening a creator's full profile uses a credit too. Every response tells you exactly how many credits it used and how many you have left.
Do credits expire?: Yes. A pack lasts 30 days from the day you buy it, so pick the one that matches a month of calls; your oldest credits go first.
Is this the same as a website plan?: No. The API is separate and pay-as-you-go for software. Website plans are for people browsing and shortlisting on CreatorFanBase.
Can my team share one key?: Each account holds up to five keys, so give every tool or colleague its own key and nobody has to share a login.
Need more than 2,500 credits a month?: Enterprise volumes start from $0.18 per credit. Contact us and we'll set it up.

Influencer API: what people ask

What is an influencer API?

An influencer API lets your software ask for creator data — names, platforms, follower counts, reach — instead of copying it by hand. The CreatorFanBase API returns verified creators you can filter by country, category, language, platform and follower range.

Is there a social media influencer API for Instagram, YouTube and TikTok?

Yes. One CreatorFanBase request covers every platform we track, so you don't need a separate connection for each network. Browse what's in it first on the search page.

Who uses an influencer data API?

Agencies building shortlists for clients, marketing tools adding creator discovery, and brands feeding creator data into their own dashboards or spreadsheets.

How is this different from using ChatGPT or Claude?

The API is for your code. If you just want to ask for lists in chat, use the influencer MCP instead; it works inside ChatGPT and Claude.

Do I need a subscription?

No. The API runs on credit packs — buy credits when you need them. Website plans are separate and listed on pricing.

Can I review the data before buying?

Yes. Explore a sample like creators in India with 100K+ followers, then choose a credit pack for the API records you need.

What a CreatorFanBase API search spends

A search costs 1 credit plus 1 credit for every filter you set. The filters are keyword, country, category, language, platform, minimum followers and maximum followers. Opening one full profile costs 1 credit. Every response tells you how many credits that call used and how many are left.

Credits expire 30 days after purchase, and the oldest credits are used first. The packs on this page are Trial (50 credits for 19 dollars), Builder (500 credits for 149 dollars) and Scale (2,500 credits for 599 dollars). You can create up to 5 keys, one per tool or teammate. The API is separate from a website plan: website plans are for people browsing CreatorFanBase, and the API is pay-as-you-go for software. The base URL is `https://creatorfanbase.com/api/public/v1`.
