  • Google Maps Menu Scraper API

    Nobody talks about this, but Google Maps menus are photos, not data

    The Google Maps Menu Scraper API reads dish names and prices from menu photos on Maps, not an empty data tab. Stop OCR-ing screenshot folders by hand.

  • Instagram Reel On-Screen Text Extractor API

    Transcribing Instagram Reels is actually wrong

    The Instagram Reel Text Extractor API reads the price, drop date, and code in the overlay at 00:02. Whisper hears the Reel; transcripts miss the frame.

  • Instagram Post & Carousel Text Extractor API

    Most people don't know the Instagram caption isn't the post

    The Instagram Post Text Extractor API reads offers burned into images and slides. The caption says 'details in post' — slide two is the announcement.

  • TikTok Video Text & Overlay Extractor API

    Stop screenshotting TikTok overlays. Read them instead

    The TikTok Video Text Extractor API reads the drop, the price, and the code already on the frame. Stop pausing videos into dated screenshot folders.
