The problem it solves

Researching Instagram profiles for influencer partnerships or competitor tracking means opening each profile, jotting down numbers, and copying them into a spreadsheet by hand. Doing this for more than a few accounts quickly eats up your afternoon.

Who it fits

Marketers and talent scouts researching Instagram accounts for partnerships or competitive tracking.

How it works

  1. You submit the Instagram username through a simple form
  2. It scrapes the profile for follower count, following count, bio, and profile picture
  3. It formats the data into a consistent structure
  4. It logs the result as a new row in Google Sheets
What you get

Profiles you understand before reaching out

You submit a username and get follower counts, bio, and profile details neatly logged in a spreadsheet for your review.

What you get

An updated Google Sheet with each profile's follower stats and bio details.

What you need

An Apify account with an API token and a connected Google Sheets account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
