Everything you need to know about detecting fake followers

Yes — we offer a free basic audit for single public profiles. You can check any Instagram account for fake followers without any cost. Pro and Enterprise plans unlock bulk scans, exports, and API access for advanced users.

No — audits run on public profile data and do not require account login. We respect privacy and only analyze publicly available information to detect suspicious follower patterns.

Our model uses multiple signals including profile completeness, activity patterns, engagement metrics, and follower-to-following ratios to estimate likely fake accounts. While highly indicative (90%+ accuracy), results are probabilistic — use reports as one input in decision-making.

No — only public accounts can be analyzed. Private profiles do not expose the data necessary for audience audits. The account must be public for our tool to access and analyze follower quality.

Common indicators include incomplete profiles, no profile pictures, low engagement despite high follower counts, suspicious usernames (random letters/numbers), accounts following thousands but with few followers, and inactive accounts.

Instagram allows you to manually remove followers from your account. Go to your profile, tap followers, find suspicious accounts, and select "Remove". For bulk removal, consider Instagram's built-in tools or third-party services that comply with their terms.
