Use looot to look up these Instagram accounts: [usernames]. 1. Set up https://looot.ai/skill.md. 2. Find an Instagram profile endpoint in the catalog and check its price. 3. Run it once per username. 4. Return a table of username, name, followers, following, verified, category and website, sorted by followers, and the total cost.

## What it costs

The tool on the web page runs live at no cost to you and is limited per hour. The results come from public data through looot. For heavier or repeated use, run the same job from your own looot account: looot bills per call and charges nothing while your agent is idle. The live price comes from the catalog and shows on the web page.

## Vet a creator

Check followers, badges and category before you send a partnership offer.

## Build a list

Give your agent a list of handles and get one row per account back.

## Spot fakes

Compare a lookalike account with the real one: badge, followers and website.

## Competitor check

See how a rival's bio and link have changed since you last looked.

## How do I view an Instagram profile without an account?

Type the username in the box at the top of this page. It returns the public profile header: name, bio, follower and following counts, badges and website. You never sign in to Instagram.

## Can I see private Instagram accounts?

No. A private account shows the same header anyone sees, with the private flag set. Its posts, followers list and stories stay private.

## Will the person know I viewed their profile?

No. The lookup reads public data on the server and leaves no trace on the account, so the owner gets no notification.

## Does it show the number of posts?

No. Instagram often hides the true post count from this kind of lookup, so the card leaves it out rather than show a wrong number.

## Is this Instagram profile viewer free?

Yes. Each lookup on this page costs you nothing and is limited per hour. For many accounts, your agent runs the same endpoint on your own looot account at the per-call price shown above.

## Can I see Instagram stories or download photos?

No. This page shows the profile card only. It does not view stories or download media.

## Can I check if a username is free?

Use the Instagram username checker linked below. It runs the same lookup and tells you whether the name is taken.

## How do I look up many profiles from an agent?

Copy the prompt above, add your list of handles and give it to your agent with the looot skill.md link. It runs one call per handle and returns a table.
