Sort Feed is a Chrome extension: open a profile, search or saved collection on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube or Facebook, and it sorts the posts by outlier score or views, with a player, downloads and exports. Statly is a web app built for agency owners, social media managers and growth operators who monitor competitors and niches they do not own: it re-reads the public accounts you choose every 24 hours on its servers and scores every video against its own account’s median, so the numbers are waiting for you each day.

Sort Feed works on the page in front of you: open a profile, sort it, watch, download, export. Statly works while you are away: it re-reads the accounts on your list every day, so you see who broke out without opening each profile.
Statly does the reading every day. You decide what to make next.
Each account gets a baseline: its median views. A video’s outlier score is its views divided by that median, so a small account’s breakout is as visible as a big account’s.
Trend Finder shows what is growing fastest since the last daily scan, the top outliers and the top sounds across your niches. Save the winners to your Library with tags and folders.
