Just using this data alone on both IGCheck and Hypeauditor , you can easily to identify spikes and dives that indicate that the influencer either bought followers or used follow for follow (F4F) groups etc.

Hypeauditor takes a more black box approach to this with just numbers and indicators to say good or bad.

This is where IGCheck takes a more statistical approach with a trending graph to help identify engagement spikes either because the campaign was super engaging or if the influencer has paid for engagement or used an engagement pod to get the numbers up.

IGCheck uses trending and post breakdown to make more meaningful sense of which and what content worked rather than a pre-processed analysis.

This is where we feel Hypeauditor excels beyond IGCheck and other competitors. It is able to figure out the demographic breakdown of the influencer just by scanning their public information. This is usually only available with authentication to the Instagram account but they have combined other 3rd party sources to determine this. Kudos and for this, we feel is definitely worth the $7-30 per report. Afterall you won't want to be marketing to the wrong demographic.

IGCheck and Hypeauditor has pretty much the same amount of data on the Influencer on Follower/Following and Engagement monitoring. The demographic data could be the premium that one could pay for.
