Data

What you get from Kwai.

Kwai is Kuaishou's international short-video app, with a big audience in Brazil. Treat its follower figure with care, because it is unreliable: even the official Brazil account has reported 1. Views and likes on each post are the better signal. You start from a username or a post URL, because there is no search endpoint.

Profiles

Name, bio, verified status, follower count and post count.

Posts

Caption, publish date, length, hashtags, views and likes.
