How to find viral Instagram Reels in your niche

A million-view Reel from a mega-creator is not a niche signal. A 3x lift on a peer account is.

Short answer

Follow peer accounts, note what beats their usual views, and ignore vanity totals from accounts ten times your size. Ospri automates that for public Instagram (plus TikTok and YouTube) accounts you add. Insights still wins for your own Reels.

Choose Ospri when

  • Baseline lift on named competitors.
  • Alerts when a Reel clears your threshold (default 2x).
  • Remix into an original script instead of copying the clip.

Choose Insights or Explore when

  • Your own Insights metrics.
  • Casual browsing of Explore.
  • Spreadsheets for a tiny list you already screenshot.

FAQ

No. You add specific Instagram accounts. Outliers are vs that account’s baseline, not vs Explore.
