Follower Tracking

Follower tracking is the core Metrika datapoint. Give the API a public account handle on Instagram, X, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook, or Threads, and it returns the current follower count as clean JSON, ready to store, chart, or display.

Why follower counts matter

Follower counts are the simplest health signal a social presence has. Agencies use them to report growth to clients, brands use them to vet creators before a campaign, and builders use them to power live counters on landing pages and dashboards.

One request shape for every network

Without Metrika, tracking followers across platforms means integrating a different official API for each network, each with its own registration process, rate limits, and response format. With Metrika it is one bearer token and one response shape, whatever the platform.
