Instagram analytics tool development

Insights Instagram forgets, kept and explained.

An Instagram analytics tool pulls an account's insights through Instagram's official API, stores them, and explains what they mean. Acasa Labs builds them. Pullsy, our own Instagram analytics product, keeps insights Instagram discards after about 90 days, grades the account, and turns it into a media kit a brand can verify.

The problem

Ninety days of history is not enough to pitch with.

Instagram shows detailed insights for a short window and then lets them go. A creator who wants to show a brand last year's growth, or an agency reporting on a quarter, has nothing to show unless someone saved it at the time. The numbers that do exist are hard to read: reach, impressions, and engagement mean different things in different places. A good tool saves everything from the first day and says plainly what each number means.

What we build

  1. 01

    Sync through the official API

    Scheduled pulls through Instagram's official sign-in, with tokens, rate limits, and re-authorization handled.

  2. 02

    History that does not expire

    Every insight stored long after Instagram drops it, so trends cover months and years, not weeks.

  3. 03

    A grade, explained

    A scoring service that turns raw metrics into a grade, with what each number means in plain words.

  4. 04

    Media kits and reports

    A shareable media kit built from synced data, and reports for agencies managing many accounts.

From production

How Pullsy syncs and scores.

  • Crashed jobs come back

    Pullsy

    A scheduler watches heartbeats and recovers jobs that crashed mid-sync, so a restart does not leave an account with a hole in its history.

  • Re-authorization as its own state

    Pullsy

    When access needs renewing, the account moves to a re-authorization state, kept apart from errors, and Meta error codes map to backoff with jitter capped at 30 minutes.

  • A native iOS app

    Pullsy

    SwiftUI on iOS 17 and later, with push notifications when something on the account changes.

  • Tenants kept apart

    Pullsy

    Multi-tenant isolation is covered by tests, so one agency's accounts never show up in another's dashboard.

Honest trade-offs

Use Pullsy, or build an analytics tool?

If you need Instagram analytics and a media kit for your own account or a few clients, Pullsy does it today, on plans priced in INR or USD. Build your own when the analytics feed something bigger: an influencer platform matching creators to brands, an agency product with your own reports, or a tool that combines Instagram with other networks and your own sales data.

Questions

Instagram analytics tools questions we get asked.

Why do old Instagram insights disappear?

Instagram keeps detailed insights for a limited window, about 90 days. Anything older is gone unless a tool saved it at the time, which is why Pullsy syncs on a schedule.

Is it safe to connect an account?

Pullsy connects through Instagram's official sign-in, so it never sees the account password, and access can be removed from Instagram at any time.

Can it handle agencies with many creators?

Yes. Pullsy's entitlement service supports per-seat and per-storefront plans, and tenant isolation is covered by tests.

Is there an API?

Yes. Pullsy has a REST API with keys for developers, so the data can feed your own dashboards.

Can you build a tool for more than Instagram?

Yes. Pullsy's connector registry already reaches beyond Instagram, and a custom build can add the networks your clients use, within what each network's API allows.

What happens when Instagram changes its API?

Each network sits behind its own connector in Pullsy's registry, and Meta error codes are mapped to their own handling, so a change is fixed in one place rather than across the whole product.

How is Pullsy priced?

Pullsy has plans in INR and USD, billed through Razorpay, with per-seat and per-storefront options. A custom analytics tool built for you is quoted as a project.
