Monitor any public Instagram profile 24/7. Automatically archives new posts, reels (.mp4), carousels, and 24h stories directly to permanent storage so deleted content is never lost. Detects stealth deletions, profile edits (bio, avatar, username), and keeps non-expiring media links forever. Ideal for brand monitoring, creator archiving, competitive intelligence, and influencer compliance.
