Pulls real hashtag and profile data (no login) to show which formats are actually traveling in your niche.
Marketing & SEOIntermediate★ 768⑂ 163AI score 9/10Last updated: Nov 4, 2026
What it does
- Scans a hashtag and ranks the posts traveling right now by likes + comments
- Extracts the repeatable pattern behind the winners: hook shape, caption length, image vs carousel vs Reel, presence of a specific number
- Pulls profile stats for any handle: followers, post count, bio, category, verified and business flags
- Produces a follower-normalized benchmark plus an action list (what to make more of, who to watch, where to route drafts)
Requirements & limits
- Reads data via Apify (no login, no cookies); needs
APIFY_TOKEN, or you can paste data you already have - On claude.ai, add the Apify MCP server as a custom connector instead
- Instagram hides who liked or commented on other accounts, so no engager roster
Who it's for
- Marketers, creators and small brands running an Instagram account
- Anyone needing hard numbers to size up a competitor
- Teams that want format decisions driven by data, not vibes
Examples
- "Scan #homecoffee and tell me what's working" → ranked top Reels plus the recurring hook pattern
- "Pull stats for this competitor handle" → followers, posts, bio, category, flags
- "Compare my account to theirs" → normalized benchmark and a concrete action list
