How the score was built

The verdict is at the top of the page; this is the reasoning underneath it. Every sub-score prints its own weight and formula — no black box.

Archetype

High-Volume, Low-Signal

Posting very frequently with little response, which is a pattern often associated with automated or bulk publishing. Volume is not the constraint here.

Nominal weights: Reach 20% · Engagement 30% · Engagement Quality 20% · Consistency 15% · Content Performance 15% · Growth 15% · composite from 5 of 6 signals — unavailable sub-scores are excluded from both sums, not scored zero

Audience Reach

80 /100

Macro tier

581,896 followers (500K–1M followers). An asset score: how many people this account can reach. It does not move with how well the posts perform.

What this means

Engagement sits in the bottom quartile of its tier

Engagement rate 0.07% is below the 0.35% bottom quartile for 100K–1M followers, where typical is 0.70%. Closing to typical would mean roughly 840% more likes and comments per post at the current follower count.

A few posts carry the average

Median likes (226) are only 55% of the average (412), so a small number of strong posts is lifting the mean. Read the median as the typical result and treat the outliers as a template worth repeating.

Reach

80 /100

581,896 followers puts this account in the Macro tier (500K–1M 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 20% · 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(581,896) = 5.76, mapped as 25 + (L − 3) × 20 across the 1K–1M range (1K=25, 10K=45, 100K=65, 1M=85, 10M=100).

Engagement

10 /100

Engagement rate 0.07%, below the 0.35% bottom quartile for accounts with 100K–1M followers. Typical is 0.70%.

Weight 30% · piecewise-linear percentile curve for 100K–1M followers: 0%→5, p25 0.35%→30, p50 0.70%→55, p90 1.60%→85, 2.88%→100

Engagement rate 0.07% mapped onto the 100K–1M followers percentile curve (0%→5, p25 0.35%→30, p50 0.70%→55, p90 1.60%→85), measured across 10 of 10 sampled posts with visible like counts.

Engagement Quality

100 /100

5.17 comments per 100 likes, above the 1–3% healthy band, an unusually conversational audience. A comment costs far more effort than a like, so this ratio measures conversation rather than reach.

Weight 20% · comment-to-like ratio = avg comments ÷ avg likes × 100, mapped 0%→5, 0.5%→30, 1.5%→65, 3%→90, ≥5%→100

5.17 comments per 100 likes mapped as 0%→5, 0.5%→30, 1.5%→65, 3%→90, ≥5%→100. Caveat: the median post draws only 226 likes (0.039% of followers), so this ratio rests on a thin like base and should be read as indicative rather than precise.

Consistency

12 /100

Posting cadence 29.60 posts per week, far above the healthy 3–7 per week band — this is volume rather than rhythm. Gaps between posts vary by 1.04× the mean gap of 0.2 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 0.2d ÷ mean gap 0.2d) and cadence factor 0.30 from 29.6 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).

Content Performance

72 /100

The best post in the window drew 4.6× the median post's likes — 1× means no post ever breaks out, 3× or more means the account reliably produces outliers worth repeating. 0% 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 4.58× (top post 1,035 likes ÷ median 226) scoring 96, enrichment 0.00 (caption + ≥1 hashtag), format mix 1.0 (3 distinct product types).

Growth Signals

Not measurable

Weight 15% · 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.

Growth & cadence

Instagram publishes no follower history, so Instapect builds its own: every audit records a snapshot, and the trend below is measured across those snapshots. Everything else here comes from the visible posting record.

Methodology & caveats

What this report measures, how, and what it deliberately does not claim.

What this account does not make measurable

  • 2 pinned posts were detected at the head of the response and excluded from the content window, leaving 10 of the 12 returned items. Pinned posts hold permanent placement and keep accumulating engagement, and the oldest one manufactures a gap that never happened — so they are excluded from cadence, gaps, regularity, format mix and every average. They still appear in the content leaderboard, badged "Pinned".
  • The content sample is the 10-item recent-posts window. The reels endpoint reaches further back and covers Reels only, so it is used to enrich matched items with their play count — never to extend the sample, which would inflate the Reel share and corrupt cadence.
  • Play counts are published public counts shown only where the provider returns them. They are not reach, views or watch time, and none of those are available for a public-profile audit.

KPI definitions

  • Engagement rate by followers = (average likes + average comments) ÷ followers × 100.
  • Median engagement rate = the middle post's engagement rate in the sample; robust to viral outliers.
  • Posting cadence = (sampled posts − 1) ÷ days spanned × 7. Intervals, not posts: n posts span n−1 gaps. Unavailable below 2 posts or a zero-day window.
  • Instapect Score = 0.20 × Reach + 0.30 × Engagement + 0.20 × Engagement Quality + 0.15 × Consistency + 0.15 × Content Performance + 0.15 × Growth Signals, renormalised over the sub-scores that could be measured.
  • Comment-to-like ratio = average comments ÷ average likes × 100. A healthy conversational account sits between 1% and 3%.

Sample, source & limits

  • 10 public posts sampled (10 usable for like-based metrics) · retrieved 28 Aug 2026 · served from the 24-hour cache.
  • Only lawfully-visible public signals are used: published posts, visible counts, captions, hashtags, mentions and timestamps.
  • Instapect never reports reach, impressions, audience demographics, Story insights or Reels watch-time. Those are private to the account owner and any tool claiming them for a third party is guessing.
  • Benchmarks are published industry medians by follower tier and are indicative, not guarantees. Any forward-looking figure is labelled an estimate with its method stated.
