How we compare these accounts
All figures are computed from each account's public Instagram data. Engagement rate is the average likes plus comments on recent posts divided by follower count — the standard measure of how actively an audience interacts, and often a better signal of influence than raw follower count. Creator Score blends engagement, posting consistency, audience quality (comment-to-like ratio) and reach into a single 0–100 rating. Numbers refresh periodically, so a very recent viral post may not yet be reflected.
