How do I calculate Instagram reach rate?

Divide accounts reached by follower count, then multiply by 100. Use values from the same reporting period.

Can Instagram reach rate be above 100%?

Yes. Accounts reached can exceed follower count when content is seen by people who do not follow the account. This calculator does not infer how many reached accounts were followers versus non-followers.

What is the difference between reach and impressions?

Reach is the number of unique accounts reached. Impressions count total views or displays, so one reached account can create more than one impression.

Does this calculator connect to Instagram?

No. Enter your own Instagram Insights values manually. The calculation runs in your browser.

Instagram Insights remains the source of truth. Reach does not tell this calculator how many reached accounts were followers versus non-followers, so it does not invent that split.
