> Extract emails and phone numbers from Instagram profiles live — target competitor followers, hashtags, or locations for cold outreach campaigns.

IGLeads.ai is a live Instagram lead extraction tool built for cold emailers, SDRs, and growth teams who need fresh, targeted contact data. Unlike database resellers, it scrapes Instagram profiles in real time when a job is requested, pulling emails and phone numbers directly from current bios. The service positions itself explicitly against keyword-based competitors by offering source-based targeting — users specify exact accounts, hashtags, or locations rather than relying on opaque keyword matching.

## What It Is

IGLeads.ai is a web-based Instagram scraping and lead generation platform that extracts email addresses and phone numbers from public Instagram profiles on demand. Users define a lead source — such as followers of a specific competitor account, users who posted under a hashtag, or accounts active in a geographic area — and the platform visits each profile individually to collect current contact data. The tool is designed to feed cold outreach workflows in tools like Instantly, Lemlist, and Apollo, and requires no Instagram login from the user.

## How the Targeting Model Works

The platform offers six distinct lead source types, each targeting a different audience signal:

- **Competitor Followers** — extract followers from any public Instagram account
- **Hashtag Leads** — find users who posted with specific hashtags
- **Location-Based** — extract leads tied to a specific city or region
- **Hot Leads (Intent)** — AI scans comments to detect purchase intent signals like price or availability questions
- **Network Spy** — reveals who a competitor account follows, surfacing suppliers and partners
- **Lookalike Discovery** — input 3–10 seed accounts and find accounts with common followings

Each lead record can include email, phone, full name, engagement rate, follower count, business category, location, bio language, verified status, and website URL.

## Why Real-Time Scraping Is the Core Differentiator

The site explicitly argues that sub-30-minute delivery times for large lead batches are a sign of stale database reselling. IGLeads.ai states that delivering 1,000 fresh emails requires scraping 4,500+ profiles live — because only roughly 22% of Instagram accounts have a public email — and that this process takes 24–48 hours. The billing model reinforces this: users are only charged for leads where a verified email is actually found. No email found means no charge for that profile.

## REST API and Developer Access

A full REST API is available for teams that want to integrate lead extraction into their own applications. The API supports all six lead source types, webhook callbacks for job completion, and a range of filters including follower count ranges, engagement rate thresholds, business-only accounts, bio keyword matching, and intent keyword targeting. API access is gated to the Business subscription tier. The base URL is `https://api.igleads.ai` and authentication uses a Bearer token. The developer docs include quickstart examples in cURL, Python, Node.js, and PHP.

## Audience and Use Cases

The platform targets three primary user segments according to its own positioning: cold emailers and SDRs who need bounce-resistant lead lists, marketing agencies running campaigns for multiple clients (with API access for automation and volume discounts), and growth teams building targeted lists for product launches or ICP discovery. The site also advertises a white-label-ready data export and CRM integration via API for agency workflows. The vendor publishes a case study referencing IGBoost.io, an Instagram growth agency, citing email send volumes and reply rates — these are vendor-attributed claims.

## Current Status

IGLeads.ai is actively available with a 48-hour free trial (card required). The pricing page shows both monthly and annual billing options, with the annual toggle advertised as saving 20%. A pay-as-you-go option is also available with volume-based discounts scaling from $0.02 per verified lead down to $0.01 at higher deposit levels. An Agency plan for dedicated scraping infrastructure is listed at custom pricing starting from $1,500/month. The site claims over 50 million leads extracted and 600+ active users, and a 4.9/5 rating — all vendor-published figures.
