It searches influencers by audience and performance filters, returns full profile reports, measures audience overlap between creators, tracks collaboration posts, and finds social accounts by email. AI-powered text search and lookalike operations turn a plain description into matching creators, and raw data endpoints return underlying profile, feed, and media records for custom analysis. ## For AI agents Search Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube creators by audience filters, pull profile reports, measure audience overlap, and find lookalikes or accounts by email. ## Scope Does not publish posts, run ad campaigns, or send messages to creators. Use for influencer discovery and audience analytics only. ## Capabilities - Search Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube creators by audience and performance filters - Retrieve a full influencer profile report for a creator - Measure audience overlap between a set of Instagram creators - Find lookalike creators from a seed profile or text description - Match social accounts to a list of email addresses - Track collaboration posts and summaries for creators ## Use cases ### AI agent creator discovery via Jentic An AI agent connected through Jentic finds creators for a campaign without reading the Modash reference docs. It searches by intent such as finding influencers in a niche, Jentic returns the matching Modash operation with its input schema, and the agent runs a filtered search and pulls profile reports to shortlist creators. The developer's own Jentic One instance injects the bearer token at call time. Example prompt: Call POST `/instagram/search` with audience filters, then GET `/instagram/profile/{userId}/report` for each shortlisted creator ### Audience fit and overlap analysis Brands avoid paying several creators who share the same followers. The audience overlap operation compares a set of Instagram creators, and profile reports expose audience demographics, so an agent can assemble a non-overlapping roster that reaches distinct audiences for a budget. Example prompt: Call POST `/instagram/reports/audience/overlap` for a list of creators to find shared-audience redundancy ### Lookalike and text-driven sourcing Teams describe an ideal creator in plain language instead of tuning filters. The AI-powered text search turns a description into matching Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube creators, and the lookalikes operation expands from a seed profile, so an agent can grow a shortlist from one good example. Example prompt: Call POST `/ai/instagram/text-search` with a description, then POST `/ai/instagram/lookalikes` from the best match to expand the list ### Email-to-account resolution Agencies holding only email addresses want the matching social presence. The email search operation resolves a list of emails to social accounts, letting an agent enrich a contact list with the creators' profiles before outreach. Example prompt: Call POST /email-search with a list of email addresses to resolve them to social accounts ## Key endpoints | Method | Path | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | POST | `/instagram/search` | Search Instagram influencers | | GET | `/instagram/profile/{userId}/report` | Get an Instagram influencer report | | POST | `/instagram/reports/audience/overlap` | Get Instagram audience overlap | | POST | `/youtube/search` | Search YouTube influencers | | POST | `/tiktok/search` | Search TikTok influencers | | POST | `/ai/instagram/lookalikes` | Find Instagram creator lookalikes | | POST | `/email-search` | Search social accounts by email | | POST | `/collaborations/posts` | Get collaboration posts | ## Key resources - **Discovery** — Search Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube creators by audience and performance filters - **Reports** — Full influencer profile reports and audience overlap analysis - **AI Search** — Text search and lookalike operations across platforms - **Collaborations** — Collaboration post and summary tracking for creators - **Raw Data** — Underlying profile, feed, media, and comment records per platform ## AI readiness This API is usable in Jentic One now. Its AI-readiness score against Jentic's framework shows where it stands today and where improvements would make it even easier for agents to use. - **Score:** 62 / 100 - **Maturity:** AI-Aware - **Dimensions:** - Foundational Compliance: 78 / 100 - Developer Experience & Jentic Compatibility: 62 / 100 - AI-Readiness & Agent Experience: 44 / 100 - Agent Usability: 94 / 100 - Security: 60 / 100 - AI Discoverability: 66 / 100 - **View full report:** https://jentic.com/apis/modash.io/modash/scorecard - **How the score is calculated:** https://docs.jentic.com/reference/api-readiness-framework/overview/ - **More about the dimensions:** https://docs.jentic.com/reference/api-readiness-framework/specification/#dimensional-model-overview ### Score it yourself Every API in the directory is allowlisted, so you can re-score it with no key required. - **Score your own API:** https://jentic.com/scorecard.md - **Scoring CLI agent skill:** https://github.com/jentic/jentic-api-scorecard/blob/main/skills/jentic-api-scorecard/SKILL.md ```sh npx @jentic/api-scorecard-cli score ``` ## Why Jentic - **Setup:** Wiring the Modash API by hand means learning its bearer scheme, shaping per-platform audience filters, and paging raw-data endpoints yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import Modash from the API Directory, store the token once, and your agent calls the search and report operations. - **Permission scoping:** Modash carries most search targets in the request body, so Jentic rules bound which operations your agent may call rather than which creator. A rule can limit it to the discovery and profile-report reads, so the raw-data and collaboration endpoints stay out unless you add them. - **Credential handling:** Your Modash bearer token is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context. - **Discovery method:** Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'find Instagram influencers' or 'get a creator report', and Jentic returns the matching Modash operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs. ## Related APIs - **Twitter API v2** — The Twitter API exposes raw account and audience data you analyze yourself, where Modash returns ready creator reports across three networks. - **TikTok Marketing API** — The TikTok Marketing API runs the paid campaign once Modash has identified which TikTok creators to work with. - **Late API** — Late schedules and publishes social posts, pairing with Modash's discovery to run a campaign end to end. - **Sendible API** — Sendible manages publishing and engagement across social profiles alongside Modash's creator analytics. ## FAQ ### What authentication does the Modash API use? The Modash API authenticates with an HTTP bearer token in the Authorization header, per its OpenAPI spec. The health check is open, while search, report, and raw-data operations require the token. Through Jentic, your token is stored encrypted by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so it never enters the agent's context. ### Can I search creators across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube with the Modash API? Yes. Each platform has its own search operation that accepts audience and performance filters, and a matching profile report operation returns demographics and engagement for a creator. An agent can run the same shortlist workflow across all three networks. ### What are the rate limits for the Modash API? The OpenAPI spec does not state numeric rate limits. Check the Modash documentation at https://docs.modash.io for current request and credit limits before running large discovery batches. ### How do I find lookalike creators through Jentic? Search Jentic by intent such as finding similar creators, and it returns the Modash lookalikes operation with its input schema. Pass a seed profile or a text description, read the matches, and pull each profile report, with your token injected at call time. To run it on your own infrastructure, install Jentic One from its GitHub repo. ### Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Modash API? Yes. Write a rule that allows only the search and profile-report read operations, so the agent can discover and analyze creators but cannot touch the raw-data or collaboration endpoints you leave out, and every call it makes is logged by your self-hosted instance. ### Is there a Modash API MCP server? You do not need an MCP server to give your agent the Modash API. Jentic connects it directly from the API Directory: import it, store your bearer token once, and your agent calls the search and report operations on demand without loading another server's tool definitions into its context.
