We're bringing these new models into Copilot, enabling it to take on increasingly complex work, from quick questions to delegated tasks and, increasingly, complete long-running jobs through Autopilots. Here's one fun example: using an Opal-powered Autopilot running on a secure Windows 365 Cloud PC, Copilot goes through a month of trail cam footage, finds every animal sighting, creates a highlight reel of the best clips, labels each one with the camera, date, and species, catalogs every sighting in a spreadsheet, builds a PowerPoint summarizing the findings, and shares everything in Teams for colleagues to review. This is the next frontier for Copilot: software that doesn't just assist with work, but can own and complete entire tasks that unfold over hours or days. Learn more about Opal, the technology powering one of these new Autopilot experiences (in Frontier rings now and coming to Copilot soon): https://lnkd.in/grsmeiNt",

By bringing together multiple models to plan, build, critique, and complete coding tasks, it can deliver outcomes at up to 67% lower cost.

· TWO REAL RESPONSES, PULLED LIVE 2026-09-05 ·
The problem

Post data goes stale in a day

A founder announcing a raise. A VP who just changed roles. A company launching. It is all public, and the vendors that captured it used fake accounts and got shut down.

logins or cookies needed
Gone
the market’s biggest LinkedIn API, sued and shut down
What that costs youIntent signals you never see. Outreach with no hook. Monitoring done by hand.

How to use

How do I use the LinkedIn Post Scraper API?

  1. 1

    Create a free account. No credit card required.

  2. 2

    Paste a profile or company address.

  3. 3

    Add comments=true if you want the comments too.

  4. 4

    Download the list as a spreadsheet, use your API key, or tell your AI tool to pull it.

In code it is one line:

curl "https://crustapi.com/v1/linkedin?type=posts&url=linkedin.com/in/satyanadella&num=3" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_KEY"
Input

What can I set?

ParameterWhat it doesExample
typeposts for posts. profile, company, jobs and search for the rest.posts
urlA profile or company address.linkedin.com/in/satyanadella
limitPosts per request, up to 100.50
commentsAlso return the comments on each post.true
FAQ

Common questions

One request that returns the latest public posts from any person or company as data: text, date, type, reactions, comment count, hashtags, media and the post link. No login anywhere in the loop.

Reactions and the comment count always. Add comments=true and the comments themselves come with each post.

Fifty a request by default, up to a hundred, latest first.

2.5 seconds for 25 posts. That is the median a customer sees, measured through crustapi.com on the day this page was built.

$6.00 for every 1,000 requests, with lower rates for larger individual deposits. A request that returns nothing costs nothing. $6 free every month, no card.

We read the public pages LinkedIn shows anyone, logged out, and never use accounts, cookies or fake profiles. That is the distinction that ended the vendors who did. Public, logged-out collection has repeatedly defeated computer-fraud and contract claims. Check your own use case. We are not lawyers.
