🕵️‍♀️ Detect hidden paid collaborations on Instagram
Use this template to identify covert paid partnerships in Instagram posts by analyzing the post caption and coauthors. It helps uncover sponsored content—even when it’s not explicitly declared.
The template checks for:
Sponsored language or indicators in the caption
Coauthor usernames, filtering out cases where the product creator is a coauthor (e.g., influencer promoting their own brand) Explicit sponsorship tags, like Instagram’s native disclosure
It then outputs a clean JSON with:
The post URL A likelihood score (0–1) estimating if it's a paid partnership The partnered brand/entity name Whether a paid partnership was officially declared
All results are sent to Google Sheets for easy tracking and reporting. Ideal for influencer audits, brand monitoring, and social media research.
