Bird Scraper: Export Posts, Followers & Analyze Data

Export posts, followers, users and engagement data from your favorite microblog. CSV, JSON, Excel formats.

You need microblog data. But getting it out is painful. Copying post stats one by one. Scrolling through follower lists. Clicking into each profile to grab engagement numbers. If you've ever tried to collect social data at scale, you know the drill - hours of repetitive clicking for a dataset that should take minutes. Bird Scraper fixes this. One extension, all the public data you need, exported in seconds. WHY COLLECTING SOCIAL DATA IS SO HARD Most social platforms don't offer a public data export. Official APIs have strict rate limits, require developer approval, and charge per request. That leaves researchers, marketers, and analysts stuck with two options: manual copy-paste or expensive third-party SaaS tools that charge per row. - Post metrics are scattered across timelines, search results, and profiles - Follower data disappears behind infinite scroll - Engagement stats require clicking into each post individually - There's no native way to compare performance across multiple accounts Most people end up with incomplete spreadsheets and wasted afternoons. This extension solves that by intercepting the data already loaded in your browser and letting you export it cleanly. WHAT THIS EXTENSION DOES Bird Scraper runs entirely in your browser. It captures public data as pages load - no external servers, no API keys, no accounts required. Just navigate to any supported page and start collecting. No spreadsheet formulas. No manual copying. No third-party data brokers. Here's what you can extract: Posts and Tweets - Captures post text, timestamps, like counts, repost counts, reply counts, view counts, author details, media attachments, and hashtags. Works on timelines, search results, and profile pages. User Profiles - Usernames, display names, bios, follower and following counts, post counts, join dates, verification status, and location data. Followers and Following - Full follower and following lists including usernames, bios, engagement metrics, verification status, and account metadata. Comments and Replies - Reply text, timestamps, like counts, author information, and threading data from any post's reply section. Search Results - Extract posts matching specific keywords, hashtags, or advanced search queries with full metadata. HOW IT WORKS 1. Install the extension and navigate to any supported social page 2. Click the extension icon to open the scraper panel 3. Select what data you want to collect (posts, profiles, followers, or replies) 4. Choose your fields - customize exactly which data points to capture 5. Hit scrape - the extension collects data as you scroll or auto-paginates for you 6. Export to your preferred format That's it. Most extractions finish in under a minute. MONITORING AND ALERTS Page Watcher lets you track changes on any page and get notified instantly. Set conditions on specific fields - follower counts, post engagement, new content - and receive alerts via webhook or ntfy.sh when those conditions are met. Schedule regular checks to stay on top of changes without manually refreshing. Perfect for tracking competitor accounts, monitoring trending topics, or watching audience growth over time. BATCH PROCESSING Batch URL Opener lets you queue multiple URLs and process them all in one session. Add URLs manually or auto-collect them from search results, then batch-process and export all results together. Ideal for collecting data across dozens of profiles or posts without clicking through each one individually. EXPORT FORMATS - CSV - Open in Excel, Google Sheets, or any spreadsheet tool - Excel (XLSX) - Native Excel format with proper formatting - JSON - Structured data for developers and automation pipelines - HTML Table - Quick visual preview in any browser - Raw JSON - Unprocessed API response data for advanced users Choose the format that fits your workflow.
