💰 Pricing

You pay $1.50 per 1,000 videos saved ($0.0015 per video), plus a small amount of platform usage (compute and datacenter proxy traffic). A typical run of 1,000 videos costs about $1.51 in total. Videos removed by your filters are never charged.

❓ FAQ

Is scraping Kwai legal? The actor only reads public data that kwai.com shows to any visitor without logging in. You are responsible for how you use the data, including privacy laws such as the GDPR and LGPD.

Do I need a Kwai account or a proxy? No account. The default datacenter proxy works; residential exits are pinned to Brazil if you switch to them.

How many videos can I get? Profiles return the creator's public catalogue. Search and hashtag feeds go deep (hundreds to thousands of videos per keyword); the run stops when Kwai stops returning new videos or at your limit.

Why is a field empty? Kwai does not have every field for every video: transcripts exist only for videos with speech, and genres are missing on some videos. Empty fields are null or an empty list.

Can I schedule runs or use the API? Yes. Schedule the actor in the console or start it through the API and fetch the dataset as JSON, CSV or Excel.

I used another Kwai scraper before. Will my input work? The urls, searchTerms and maxItems fields are accepted as they are, and the output keeps the familiar field names (authorMeta, playUrl, thumb, genres, ...).

⚠️ Limits

• Comments and replies are not scraped: kwai.com does not show comment text to logged-out visitors.
• Kuaishou (the Chinese app) is not covered; this actor is for the international Kwai at kwai.com.
• Keyword search follows Kwai's own ranking, so a very rare or nonsense keyword can still return loosely related popular videos.
• Private, deleted or region-blocked videos are skipped and listed in the run's status message.
