The Data365 alternative
Data365 returns Instagram data through an asynchronous job with 1–5 minutes of latency (trigger, poll, then fetch); herascrape answers the same request synchronously in about a second. herascrape returns structured Instagram JSON across 37 endpoints over a single real-time REST call, at a flat $0.40 per 1,000 with only successful calls billed.
Data365 sits in the “multi-platform social data apis” tier. One API across many social networks, with Instagram as one target among several. Billed in units or credits that vary per endpoint, so the true per-call price is rarely a single number.
