Why Not Use the Instagram API Directly?

| | Instagram Graph API | Xpoz Instagram Search | |--|-------------------|----------------------| | Setup | Meta developer account + app review | One-click Xpoz auth | | Keyword search | ❌ Not available | ✅ Full-text + subtitles | | Find influencers | Only if you know their username | Search by topic/content | | Reels content | Metadata only | Captions + spoken words | | Export | Manual pagination | One-click CSV | | Cost | Free but painful setup | Free tier available |

The Instagram Graph API doesn't support keyword search at all. Xpoz fills that gap.
