The tool compares your rate against benchmarks for different account sizes (micro, mid, macro, mega) so you know where you stand. All processing happens in the browser.
This tool applies the formula (likes + comments) / followers x 100 to calculate engagement rate. It also supports an impressions-based formula. Benchmarks are provided for account sizes: micro (1K-10K), mid (10K-100K), macro (100K-1M), and mega (1M+).

How is Instagram engagement rate calculated?
The standard formula is (likes + comments) / followers x 100. Some variations include saves and shares. This tool supports both follower-based and impressions-based calculations.
What is a good engagement rate on Instagram?
It depends on account size. Micro-influencers average 3-6%, mid-size 2-4%, macro 1.5-3%, and mega accounts 1-2%. Above these ranges is considered strong.
Is my data sent to a server?
No. All calculation happens in your browser. Nothing is transmitted.
Why does engagement rate decrease with more followers?
As accounts grow, a smaller percentage of the audience actively engages with each post. This is normal and expected across all platforms.
Can I calculate average rate across multiple posts?
Yes. Enter the total likes, comments, and followers across the posts you want to average, or use the multi-post mode.
