Instagram Tool 4 Scraping Specific Gender

dotc0m · Apr 17, 2018

Hello, BHW

Looking to get some insight if there are available tools or methods or filtering scape list or scraping users with Gender filters. Looking to exclusively get List of Male users, or those who have selected male as their gender. Pretty sure that metadata is available. GMT2 has Filter to follow gender specified user,

but need the ability to scrape this data in mass..

Anyone have a method for this?

If not ill just use GMT2's follow filter and have mass accounts follow the targeted audiences with gender filter. Then scrape those mass accounts followers to get my list.

I know it will be useful for others.

Thanks

For targeting purposes, I have campaigns that can be gender dependent.

Jarvee does this, but it's pretty slow if you want to scrape a ton of data.

yeah need a faster method, currently following accounts with set parameters, then mass scraping those accounts followers works decent.

But I want a more efficient method. lots of account management I have to deal with

Well I use these steps:
1. get List of Followers
2. use http-Request / Python and Tor to download profile and profile picture
3. use age/gender classification / machine learning

It is fast gender classification works like a charm (95% I would say). Age classification in age-groups works ok (65%).

Best luck

So u mean that u will use those scraped accounts when u have a gender specific campaign and will interect with those accounts only like follow/unfollow them comment on their photo and all? For eg to market your makeup kit or some other products for women u will scrape women gender profile in a city say New York. And only interact with those profiles?

I know how to do 1 and 2, but No3 - age/gender classification can you give us more info? Is that python script?

I hate to tell you that's not possible, if you want to filter users with gender you need to get alll usernames, then you will write a script to grab the html of each profil and look for the word gender inside the source code and get the female or male and store them in seperate place.

The problem here is instagram doesn't offer the gender in the profil :3

Kind of a python script. It Is based on tensorflow the machine learning / deep learning framework from google. If you google gender classification you will find some models for tensorflow some of them even pretrained (rdy to use). You call it from python with image url and the models tell you the most probable gender or even age agegroup and gender. Depends on model.
