provider slug, and we normalize the response. If multiple actors back the same slug, we transparently retry on failure — opt out per request with fallback: false. Two endpoints share the same slug grammar: POST /v1/extract for URL-driven jobs and POST /v1/search for query-driven ones (e.g. Google Maps place search).
Why SocialRouter
One API, any provider
Switch providers by changing one parameter — the
provider slug. No migration, no rewrite.Automatic failover
When a provider returns an error or rate-limits you, SocialRouter retries on the next compatible provider in the same call.
Pay per extraction
No subscriptions. Compare providers side-by-side and pin the cheapest or fastest.
