Could you build this?
Partial The web UI is basic, but anonymously scraping and bypassing Instagram's aggressive anti-scraping, rate limits, and bot detection systems requires advanced proxy fleets and reverse-engineering.
What it would actually take: The service requires a fleet of rotating residential proxies, headless browser scrapers (Puppeteer/Playwright), and continually updated private Instagram API session management techniques to evade Meta's bot mitigation and CAPTCHAs. The architecture also requires a high-bandwidth video/image caching layer (e.g., S3/Cloudflare R2) and background scrapers to fetch stories and private-state media anonymously on demand.
