Our story

We ran Instagram pages completely blind

Tracky started with meme pages and a question we could not answer: which post actually brought the followers? So we built an Instagram follower tracker that checks every hour.

From one number a day to a count every hour.

How it started

From guessing to counting

Tracky did not start as a product. It started as a question we could not answer.

  1. 1

    Posting blind

    We ran Instagram meme pages. We posted, refreshed, and guessed. Instagram showed us a follower count, but not when it moved or which post moved it.

  2. 2

    Looking for the hour

    We wanted one answer: which hour brought the followers? A total at the end of the day said the day went well. It could not say why.

  3. 3

    Counting every hour

    So we built the tracker we wanted. Tracky saves the follower count of every public account it tracks, every hour. No Instagram login and no password: only public numbers.

  4. 4

    Sharing the history

    Tracky tracks each account once, for everyone. When you add an account that someone already tracks, you see its full history the moment you open it.

What we believe

Three rules we build by

  • Every hour counts

    A daily total hides the hour that mattered. Tracky saves a count every hour, for every account.

  • History belongs to everyone

    The first person to add an account starts its history. Everyone who adds it later sees all of it.

  • Public data only

    No Instagram login and no password. Tracky reads only what any visitor to a profile can see.

Updated every hour

A follower count is a live number. We think it should be tracked like one.
