Would you pay for a cloud IG target source database and screener

Hey guys,

Over the past few months I've been hammering through the data on Instagram and by now I've gone quite pro at scraping Instagram and their data. I'm now contemplating to create an online platform which would allow you to perform target source research in minutes (instead of scraping for hours or days by yourself). From there, you could just copy paste it in your automation tool of choice.

Specifically, you would get data like this for hundred thousands of accounts:

• Basic metrics (followers, following, engagement)
• Most used locations (helps you identify where they're from, or where they frequently are)
• The language the user uses in their captions
• Account age
• Average growth rate
• Niche
• ...

So it would be a platform that allows you to easily filter through this data and find relevant target accounts for your automation strategy.

At this point, it's just a concept, but I want to know if I should turn this into a product or not

Good idea
it could help many members

Maybe. People are always looking for more IG tools and data.

yes, add also:

- name
- profile picture
- bio words

How would you determine the niche?

I'm down for that, it sounds great!

Sounds useful. Every bit of data matters for targeting.

With that said, the better question is do we need it?
Just because we may want it doesn't mean we'll buy it unless we see it necessary.
Something to keep in mind if you plan on taking this commercially

I would pay for data of accounts that look real, and do engage constantly. For example, accounts that like and comment most often. Engagement on IG is king now, so this would be a very valuable asset.
