About SocialData Insights

SocialData Insights, presented on its site as FollowCheck, is a browser-based tool for seeing who has unfollowed an Instagram account. Instead of asking for the account's login, it works from the official data export that Instagram provides, so there is no password and no ban risk from third-party access.

The user requests a followers-and-following export in JSON format from Instagram settings, waits a few minutes for the ZIP file, then drops it into the page. The tool compares who the user follows with who follows back and lists unfollowers, mutuals and fans. According to the site, all processing happens locally in the browser and nothing is uploaded to a server. A sample data option lets visitors try it first.

The analyzer is described as free and unlimited, and the site also has an account sign-up, a pricing page, a blog and a privacy policy. It suits Instagram users who want a private way to review their follower relationships.
