Could you build this?
Partial The REST wrapper and API key management are simple, but reliably scraping Instagram at scale requires constant anti-bot evasion and proxy pools.
What it would actually take: Requires an infrastructure of residential rotating proxies, reverse-engineered private mobile/web GraphQL APIs, session management, and automated fingerprinting evasion to avoid aggressive Meta rate-limits and IP bans.
