Research any competitor. Benchmark any rival.

The problem & the fix

You can pull your own numbers. You can't pull theirs.

The problem

You can pull your own Instagram numbers all day. What you can't do, without Statly, is pull theirs. Competitor research usually means eyeballing a feed, guessing engagement from likes alone, and writing “seems to be performing well” in a slide because that's all you actually know.

What Statly does instead

Enter a competitor's public handle and get the same depth of report Instagram gives them privately: views, likes, comments, engagement rate, duration, posting cadence and consistency metrics across their last 30 to 180 Reels.

Compare, don't just observe.

  • Put your account and a competitor's head to head, every KPI aligned
  • Interleave both accounts' Reels ranked by performance
  • Overlay their growth curves on the same chart
  • See who's winning on each metric, flagged automatically
Metrics

Go beyond view counts

Anyone can screenshot a competitor's view count. Statly tells you whether that number is actually good for that account, and whether their performance is a reliable pattern or one lucky viral Reel propping up the average.

Reach Consistency IndexRCI
Median-to-average view ratio, is their reach predictable, or just occasionally lucky?
High Performance FactorHPF
How often a Reel's views exceed the account's own follower count.
Breakout Performance RateBPR
How often they produce a genuine viral outlier that beats 3× their median.
Engagement Stability IndexESI
Is their engagement reliable, or propped up by one or two videos?
Views-to-Follower RatioVTFR
Did a Reel escape their follower graph and get picked up by the algorithm?

What it isn't

Statly is a measurement tool, not a growth hack

Statly won't schedule your posts or manage your ad spend. It answers one question well: what's actually working, for us and for them.

FAQ

For marketers: questions & answers

How do I do Instagram competitor analysis without their login?

Statly reads the public engagement data Instagram already shows on any profile, through your own browser session. Enter a competitor's handle and you get their Reels' views, engagement rate, posting cadence and consistency metrics, no account access, password or Meta API needed.

Can I benchmark my brand against a competitor?

Yes. The Compare dashboard puts two public accounts head to head, aligns every KPI, interleaves both accounts' Reels by performance and flags who wins on each metric, so you can prove whether you're actually beating them.

What metrics tell me if a competitor is really outperforming us?

Raw views alone are misleading. Statly's consistency suite, Reach Consistency Index, Breakout Performance Rate, High Performance Factor, Engagement Stability Index and Views-to-Follower Ratio, shows whether a competitor's performance is reliable or carried by one lucky viral Reel.

Does Statly use the Instagram or Meta API?

No. Statly computes everything locally from the public data on the page. It never logs into any account and never calls the Meta API, so there's nothing to authorise and no access to request.

Can I export competitor data into a report?

Yes. Every dashboard exports to CSV or Excel, and charts export cleanly too, so you can drop competitor benchmarks straight into your next deck.
