Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find sports influencers via the Social Intel API?
Send a GET request: GET https://socialintel.dev/v1/search?category=Sports&limit=20. Payment is $0.10 per search via x402 (USDC on Base or Solana) — no account required.
What data is returned for each influencer profile?
Each profile includes: Instagram username, full name, follower count, following count, bio text, business email (when publicly listed), profile category, and verification status.
Do I need a subscription or API key?
No. Social Intel uses x402 micropayments — you pay per search with USDC on Base or Solana. No signup, no monthly fee, no API key. AI agents (Claude, GPT-4, etc.) can pay automatically.
How do I find sports influencers for specific athletic disciplines?
Use category=Sports with sport-specific queries: query=basketball, query=soccer, query=tennis, or query=swimming. Athletes and coaches always mention their sport in their bio.
Can I find college or amateur athlete influencers?
Yes. Use query=NCAA, query=college athlete, or query=amateur athlete. Since NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) rules changed in the US, college athletes are an emerging and highly authentic influencer category.
What brands get the best results with sports influencers?
Sports equipment, activewear, sports nutrition, energy drinks, and sports tech (fitness trackers, apps) see the strongest ROI. Sports audiences are particularly action-oriented buyers, especially for gear they see their favorite creators use.
