# Bridgly

> Fast, affordable APIs for live, structured social media data, available through REST, a TypeScript SDK, MCP and a CLI.

Bridgly provides structured JSON from LinkedIn, X (Twitter), Reddit, GitHub, Instagram, YouTube and TikTok. Depending on the platform, endpoints cover profiles, companies, posts, comments, search, engagement counts, media and transcripts. One API key and one credit balance work across all platforms, with no social accounts, cookies or proxies to supply.

The REST API uses HTTPS POST requests to https://api.bridgly.app with a JSON body and bearer-token authentication. Successful responses include data, timeMs and creditsCost. The TypeScript SDK, CLI and MCP server use the same data and account credits. The remote MCP endpoint is https://mcp.bridgly.app/mcp.

Start with 100 free credits on an eligible new account, with no card required. Pricing is pay as you go, with no subscription or minimum spend, and credits do not expire. Credits cost $2 per 1,000 on pay as you go, with volume packages reducing the price to $1 per 1,000. Costs vary by endpoint: most single-record lookups cost one credit, while list and search endpoints can charge per result. Failed requests do not consume credits. Each endpoint's documentation specifies its cost.
