247,615 followers puts this account in the Mid tier (100K–500K followers). This is an asset score — how many people the account can reach — and it never moves based on how well the posts perform.

Weight 0% · log-scaled followers: L = log10(followers); L≤3 → 5–25, 3<L≤6 → 25 + (L − 3) × 20, L>6 → 85 + (L − 6) × 15, capped 100

log10(247,615) = 5.39, mapped as 25 + (L − 3) × 20 across the 1K–1M range (1K=25, 10K=45, 100K=65, 1M=85, 10M=100).

Engagement rate 0.14%, below the 0.50% bottom quartile for accounts with 100K–500K followers. Typical is 1.00%.

Weight 35% · piecewise-linear percentile curve for 100K–500K followers: 0%→5, p25 0.50%→30, p50 1.00%→55, p90 2.20%→85, 3.96%→100

Engagement rate 0.14% mapped onto the 100K–500K followers percentile curve (0%→5, p25 0.50%→30, p50 1.00%→55, p90 2.20%→85), measured across 8 of 10 sampled posts with visible like counts.

Weight 25% · comment-to-like ratio = avg comments ÷ avg likes × 100, mapped 0%→5, 0.5%→30, 1.5%→65, 3%→90, ≥5%→100

The typical post carries 2 comments, below the 5-comment base at which a comment-to-like ratio is statistically meaningful. One or two reactions expressed as a percentage is not a measurement, so the weight is redistributed rather than scored.

Posting cadence 7.95 posts per week, above the healthy 3–7 per week band, where extra volume stops adding value. Gaps between posts vary by 1.20× the mean gap of 0.9 days — under 0.5× reads as a dependable rhythm.

Weight 15% · 60 × (1 − clamp(stdev(gaps) ÷ mean(gaps), 0, 1)) + 40 × cadence factor (0/wk → 0, 3/wk → 1.0, 3–7/wk → 1.0, 14/wk → 0.6, ≥21/wk → 0.3)

regularity 0.00 (1 − stdev 1.1d ÷ mean gap 0.9d) and cadence factor 0.95 from 7.9 posts/week (0→0, ramping to 1.0 at 3/wk, flat 1.0 through 7/wk, tapering to 0.6 at 14/wk and 0.3 at 21+/wk).

The best post in the window drew 2.4× the median post's likes — 1× means no post ever breaks out, 3× or more means the account reliably produces outliers worth repeating. 30% of sampled posts carry both a caption and at least one hashtag (a well-kept feed is usually above 80%), across 3 distinct formats.

Weight 15% · 60 × upside score (top-post likes ÷ median likes: 1×→30, 2×→60, 3×→80, ≥5×→100) + 25 × caption-and-hashtag share + 15 × format mix (1.0 if ≥2 product types, else 0.5)

upside 2.37× (top post 664 likes ÷ median 281) scoring 67, enrichment 0.30 (caption + ≥1 hashtag), format mix 1.0 (3 distinct product types).

Weight 10% · clamp(50 + weekly follower growth % × 25, 0, 100), where weekly % = (followers now ÷ followers then − 1) × 100 ÷ weeks

This is the first recorded audit of this account, so there is no observation window yet. Instagram publishes no follower history — Instapect measures growth by comparing snapshots it takes itself, and the trend appears from the second audit that is at least 7 days later.
