High-Signal Audience Filtering (GET /verified-followers)

What is it? The /verified-followers endpoint specifically filters an account’s follower list to return only those who hold a verified status (e.g., Blue checkmark, Organization, or Government status). Why use it?
  • Influence Identification: Quickly find the “VIPs” in an audience. Accounts followed by many verified users typically have higher organic authority.
  • Spam Filtering: By focusing only on verified followers, you significantly reduce the “noise” from bot accounts and low-quality profiles.
  • Whitelisting: Many Web3 projects use this to identify real, active users for exclusive alpha groups or early-access campaigns.
Python Implementation: 
import requests

API_KEY = "YOUR_API_KEY"
URL = "https://api.sorsa.io/v3/verified-followers"

params = {"link": "Tether_to"}
headers = {"ApiKey": API_KEY}

response = requests.get(URL, params=params, headers=headers)
data = response.json()

if "followers" in data:
    print(f"Found {len(data['followers'])} verified followers on this page.")
    for v_follower in data["followers"]:
        print(f"Verified User: @{v_follower['screen_name']}")
