Project Status Update
Due to a recent health scare, this project is taking a very far backseat priority in my life. Updates and support will be very minimal for the foreseeable future. Thank you for your understanding.
If you're looking for a more actively maintained alternative with a full WebUI, live dashboard and VOD player, and automatic background monitoring and archiving, check out Accerso.
Warning
The Windows executable of this program is frequently being flagged as Trojan:Script/Wacatac.B!ml by Windows Defender and other AV. This is a false positive.
Why is this happening?
The !ml in the detection name means it was flagged by a Machine Learning model, not a human. Because this is an unsigned, open-source scraper tool that makes many internet requests, the automated system incorrectly flags it as suspicious. This is a common issue for many Go and Rust-based command-line tools.
Recommended Solution - Install via Go (should hopefully bypass AV issues):
GOPROXY=direct go install github.com/agnosto/fansly-scraper/cmd/fansly-scraper@latestWhat you can do:
- Trust the program: You can temporarily disable Windows Defender to download and run the program, and then add it as an exception.
- Build from source: If you have Go installed, you can build it yourself. The program is not flagged when you compile it locally or install via go.
The code is fully open-source for you to inspect. It is safe to use. but I understand if the AV warnings are concerning.
A simple all in one tool to download and monitor content from Fansly creators.
⚠️ Currently in development - Some features may not work perfectly. See known issues below.
- Optional but highly recommended: ffmpeg for livestream recording and saving higher quality videos. Follow this guide for installing to system path on windows.
- Optional: mt for better contact sheets
- Easy way: Visit the download page (auto-detects your system)
- Manual way: Get from GitHub releases
- Intall Via Go:
GOPROXY=direct go install github.com/agnosto/fansly-scraper/cmd/fansly-scraper@latest./fansly-scraperOn first run, the setup wizard helps you configure everything. Press 'a' to use auto login: it opens Fansly and provides a one‑line snippet to paste in DevTools Console. Your token and user‑agent are captured automatically and saved to the config.
./fansly-scraperFrom the main menu you can:
- Run setup wizard (choose save location, auto login)
- Reset configuration (restore defaults, re-run wizard)
# Download all content from a creator
./fansly-scraper -u {creator-name}
# Download specific content types
./fansly-scraper -u {creator-name} -d [all|timeline|messages|stories]
# Monitor for live streams
./fansly-scraper -m {creator-name}
# Start/stop monitoring
./fansly-scraper monitor [start|stop]Note: Live monitoring requires keeping your terminal session active. To run monitoring in the background, consider using terminal multiplexers like tmux or zellij on Linux/WSL. Starting from v0.6.3, you can monitor additional creators by running -m creator in separate terminal instances without restarting the existing monitor process.

Contributions are welcome and greatly appreciated! Whether it's reporting a bug, proposing a feature, or submitting a pull request, your help is valued.
Please read our Contributing Guidelines before you start. Check the Issues tab to see if there's a task you'd like to take on.
- Redownloading: As of v0.8.3, file naming convention was changed causing redownloading of media.
- Chat recording: May occasionally miss messages during reconnections
- MacOS users: May need to allow notifications in system settings
- Live status: Press
rin TUI to refresh live status - Duplicate files: Sometimes the same image may appear twice due to Fansly's API structure
- Date formats for livestream filename: In the event a stream gets interrupted and reattempts to record, if the date format isn't specific enough (ie, no timestamp), it may fail to save the stream after as both vods will be the same name, for now use one of these:
2006-01-02_15:04:05or20060102_150405
