Sonder APIs

Data on public social posts across every platform Sonder covers, so developers and teams can build their own tools.

Sonder reads public posts on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube (long-form and Shorts), Facebook, X, Threads, Reddit and Snapchat: the posts, their stats, what is said and written in them, the comments under them, and who made them. Sonder APIs give you that data directly: search public posts, look up accounts, pull comments and transcripts, and track a launch across platforms in one shape.

What makes it different

  • One shape for eight platforms. A TikTok, a Reel, a Short, a Snapchat Spotlight and a Reddit thread come back as the same post object, with the platform's quirks written down, not hidden.
  • Missing is not zero. When a platform doesn't publish a number, you get null and a flag, never a silent 0.
  • Checked, not just matched. Campaign posts are read (caption, speech, on-screen text) and judged against your brief, so fan edits that never say your name count, and keyword noise doesn't. See Concepts.
  • Every number is dated. Each post carries asOf: when its stats were last read.
