Graphtreon Patreon Creator Earnings Scraper

Scrape estimated Patreon creator earnings, patron counts, and ranking data from Graphtreon — the only publicly available source that reverse-engineers Patreon income by analyzing tier and patron count data.

What you get

For each Patreon creator, the actor returns:

Field Description
patreon_creator_name Creator display name
patreon_url Direct Patreon page URL
graphtreon_url Graphtreon stats page URL
category Patreon category slug (e.g. video, gaming, music)
paid_member_count Number of paying patrons
estimated_monthly_earnings_min_usd Lower bound of monthly earnings estimate (USD)
estimated_monthly_earnings_max_usd Upper bound of monthly earnings estimate (USD)
earnings_rank_overall Overall earnings rank across all Patreon creators
earnings_rank_in_category Earnings rank within the creator's category
launch_date ISO 8601 date the Patreon page launched
scraped_at ISO 8601 timestamp of the scrape

Around 250,000 creators are indexed in Graphtreon. Earnings estimates are null for creators who opt out of the feature.

Why Graphtreon

Patreon itself does not expose creator earnings — it only shows patron counts at the tier level, not the dollar amounts. Graphtreon back-computes earnings estimates from public tier pricing and patron count data, making it the canonical data source for:

  • Creator-economy market analysis
  • Influencer pricing benchmarks
  • VC and brand research
  • Journalism and industry reports

How to use

Set maxItems to limit the number of records. Set to 0 or leave empty to scrape all ~250k creators.

{
  "maxItems": 1000
}

The actor walks Graphtreon's sitemap (12 child sitemaps, each listing ~20k creator URLs), fetches each creator's detail page, and extracts all available data via the server-rendered HTML.

Proxy note

Graphtreon blocks datacenter IP ranges via Cloudflare IP reputation filtering. The actor automatically routes requests through Apify Residential proxies — no additional configuration needed.
