Could you build this?

Partial A developer can easily wrap scrapers into an API, but reliably bypassing anti-bot protections (Cloudflare, Akamai, Instagram/TikTok fingerprinting) across all major social networks requires dedicated anti-scraping infrastructure.

What it would actually take: A production scraper API requires large-scale rotating residential proxy pools, browser fingerprint spoofing (TLS/JA3/canvas), reverse-engineering internal mobile app APIs, and continuous maintenance as social platforms patch scrapers weekly. Building and maintaining this requires dedicated reverse-engineering and infra expertise.
