## What we believe. And what you can check.

218 endpoints on 33 platforms, each checked on a schedule, with the results on our [status page](https://socialtap.dev/status/index.md).

- ### Public data only

  We return what anyone can see on a platform without an account. No private profiles, no paywalled content.
- ### Logged out, every time

  Every request is read logged out. We never use logins, fake accounts or anyone's cookies.
- ### Failed requests are free

  You pay only for successful requests. An error costs 0 credits, so trying costs you nothing.

  [See pricing](https://socialtap.dev/pricing/index.md)
- ### One schema

  A profile, a post or a comment comes back in the same fields on every platform that has one, null where a platform doesn't show a field. You write one parser.
