The short answer
Choose by the posts you work with and how you call it
Choose mamitsu when your app or agent asks questions about social posts and wants the answer back in the same call, including posts made of photos. Its per-minute price makes short videos especially affordable.
Choose Supadata when you also need transcripts, Facebook videos, direct media files or web scraping from one provider, or its batch endpoints.

How mamitsu works
A post URL and a question, with an optional schema
Send a public post URL and a prompt that says what you want to know. mamitsu watches the video, listens to the audio and reads the caption and post text, then returns one JSON object.
With a schema, the result uses your fields. This request asks a YouTube workout for its exercises in order, and the response carries the reps, hold times and form cues the coach says out loud.
Without a schema, mamitsu chooses the structure from your prompt. The second example asks a YouTube Short for its opening hook and calls to action.

}Request and response
One call with mamitsu, a job and a poll with Supadata
mamitsu holds the request open while it works and answers with the JSON, so your code makes one call and reads the result. Both examples above came back that way.
Supadata's extract endpoint starts a job and returns its ID. Your code then polls the job endpoint until the status is completed. That flow suits large queues of videos where your system already works with background jobs.
# Documented by Supadata, 8 November 2026
# 1. Start a job: POST returns 202 with a job ID
curl -X POST 'https://api.supadata.ai/v1/extract' \
-H 'x-api-key: YOUR_SUPADATA_KEY' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"url": "<video URL>", "prompt": "<what to extract>"}'
# { "jobId": "..." }
# 2. Poll until "status" is "completed"
curl 'https://api.supadata.ai/v1/extract/JOB_ID' \
-H 'x-api-key: YOUR_SUPADATA_KEY'API and MCP
The same extraction in your code and in your agent
mamitsu offers one capability through two interfaces. The REST API uses an API key; the MCP server uses OAuth sign-in and exposes an extract tool with the same inputs, the same result and the same credits.
The agent gets the answer from a single tool call, so a long video costs a few lines of context. Supadata's MCP server offers a wider toolbox, with extraction as a job the agent starts and then checks.
What a video costs
The same two videos priced on both services
mamitsu credits cost US$0.01 or €0.01 each. During the early access launch offer, purchases get 2 credits per cent, which halves that price. New accounts start with 200 free credits. For Supadata, the figures use the Pro plan: US$17 a month for 3,000 credits, excluding taxes. Its free plan includes 100 credits a month.
| Video | mamitsu credits | mamitsu price | Supadata credits | Supadata Pro price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 45-second Instagram Reel | 1 | US$0.005 | 5 | US$0.028 |
| 10-minute YouTube video | 6 | US$0.030 | 50 | US$0.283 |
Prices checked on 8 November 2026. Supadata's price per credit depends on the plan, and unused plan credits expire at the end of each month. mamitsu also charges 1 credit per started 3 photos. See mamitsu pricing
