Paste an account’s public numbers and get a plain English read on whether the audience looks organic, inflated or bought. Nothing is fetched from Instagram and nobody is notified.
Are those followers real?
Open the profile, copy the public numbers in, and we’ll tell you whether the engagement matches the audience. Nothing is fetched from Instagram. The comments you paste stay in your browser.
A signal, not proof. Engagement varies by niche, and a small sample can mislead. We log the account name, follower count and verdict, with your IP address, for 30 days to prevent abuse. Dig deeper sends the account name and numbers to Anthropic to search the web; nothing pasted is sent.

What we noticed
Looks up the account on the web for context: what it is, how established, signs of ads. Sends the account name and these numbers to Anthropic’s Claude; nothing you pasted is sent.

How bought followers show up
We look at the ratios Instagram itself can’t hide: followers against following, likes and comments against audience size, and how the comments read. Then we check the pattern: real audiences give varied likes and specific comments even when reach is low. The score runs in your browser.
Likes and comments per post against the follower count. Bought followers don’t like anything.
Following thousands to gain a few hundred back is a classic growth hack. We flag it.
Paste a few comments. Emoji walls and ‘nice pic’ from strangers score differently to real conversation.
Twelve posts and 80,000 followers is a story worth questioning.
Organic, suspicious or inflated, with the reasons listed so you can judge for yourself.
We don’t scrape or log in to Instagram. We keep the handle and the result for 30 days, nothing else. The optional buttons send the account name, never anything you paste.
The numbers can point to a problem. They can’t prove one.
We don’t open the follower list or inspect individual accounts. That is against Meta’s terms and we don’t do it.
Only the account owner can see reach and saves. If you’re paying for a post, ask them for a screenshot of Insights.
A low score can mean bought followers, or an old account that stopped posting. Read the reasons, then ask.
No. The account isn’t told. The score runs on your device. If you press Fill it in, we ask Instagram’s official API for the public numbers; if you press Dig deeper, we search the web for the account name.
For accounts under 10k followers, 3 to 6 percent is healthy. Over 100k, 1 to 2 percent is normal. Under 0.5 percent at any size is a flag.
Yes, and you should before pitching to brands. If followers were bought in the past, the score will show it.
Send us the handle before you sign anything. We’ll give you an honest read, free, and tell you what a fair rate looks like.
