What does the tool read?
Enter a handle and we read one page of the creator's most recent public posts. If that page is short of comparable posts, we read one more.
- 02
How is the usual measured?
We take the median views of the creator's recent posts. Instagram photos and carousels are measured on likes, because Instagram shows no view count for them. Pinned posts and posts younger than 48 hours are left out.

What counts as an outlier?
A post that reached at least 2x the median of the creator's other posts of the same type. The list runs from the biggest multiple down.

Is this creator's reach steady or one lucky hit?
A creator with one viral post and a low median is a different buy from one who clears the same number every week. The median shows which one you are looking at.

Judge reach by the median
The median resists a single viral hit, so it is a fairer read of what a sponsored post is likely to get.
