How to Export Threads Posts by Profile, Keyword, or Post URL
Threads doesn't offer a public API or bulk export — just an app and web feed meant for scrolling. This tool reads public Threads posts by profile, keyword search, or a specific post URL (plus its visible replies), and returns them as structured data: text, engagement counts, media, and author info, with no login required.
In short: Manually scrolling a Threads profile or search and copying posts doesn't scale for social listening or tracking an account's activity. This tool automates it — you get structured, ready-to-use data instead of copying it by hand.
What the data shows: In this sample of 10 posts pulled from 3 brand accounts in a single run (Kim Kardashian, Netflix US, NASA), engagement ranges from a few dozen to over 22,000 likes on one post — the kind of side-by-side account comparison that means scrolling each profile separately otherwise.
