Stribr 2.0 - A better way to manage your Instagram account.

@tmoulos We'vs faced that problem too! You can handle multiple accounts with Stribr!

@vidarth91 @tmoulos thanks

@thejeremycarson I added the founders as makers. They don't have commenting access yet. Should be replying once they are given commenting access !

@thejeremycarson Thanks for the question! We built this tool because we were using too many little tools to accomplish the following tasks on Instagram : 1) Search and monitor hashtags, locations 2) Manage followers (nonfollowers, inactive etc) 3) Analytics 4) Scheduling. So we built a dashboard that did all these things. Try it out and let us know what you think!

@kwdinc not sure if you seen but Instagram is discontinuing a lot of the support in their api for the type of functionality you've built - something to look into as you progress into the future

@rickats Instagram has deprecated their /self/feed API which does not contribute to the major functionality of our product. We were approved by Instagram 6 months ago (all products have to be re-approved). API based consumer products will be the ones who will be hit the hardest.

@chingucha @kwdinc cool man :) i'd really work on your design though - seems like something that has been slapped together by engineers

@rickats thanks for your feedback 😄 been hearing a lot about our design here and improving that is definitely at the top of our todo list.

Hi @cnikitiadis, yes Instagram has limits set for the various endpoints and we adhere to their policies. We ration the use of each users access token to make sure you can view as much data as possible. You should ideally never hit any limitations when browsing our hashtag or location streams,. While collecting data for metrics and follower analytics we use a timeout mechanism to fetch all your data, this happens in the background so your normal webapp isn't affected.

Thanks for your reply @chingucha. I believe that it wont work for large accounts or popular hashtags, but will definitely work for hashtags that are not used by thousands of users. Best of luck!

@cnikitiadis For very large hashtags like foodporn, selfie we do have a cap on the posts we analyze for metrics, which varies by the tier of your account. For normal browsing of hashtag/location streams, you should not run into any API limits.

@chingucha Makes sense.

@esbvn Right now we have analytics. In a couple of weeks we'll launch scheduling as well. Think of it as Gramfeed + Latergramme + one of the Analytics tools (The good ones are extremely expensive).

@chingucha just scheduling — or posting as well? Just curious, from one Instagram tool to another, we allow posting as well, for thousands of customers, and it works perfectly fine for us, so far, but once you step into this territory (like we did) the new API policy changes (and partly what's been there before) now make it all pretty clear Instagram will not play nice on the long run if you're trying to be a part of the publishing end of things. Sooner or later, they'll want anyone who schedules promotional content to use their ad platform so they can cash in on it. Just curious to hear your thoughts.

@mittermayr You can schedule to post instantly from web using Stribr.

@nichlaswa This is the feedback we're hearing the most today. We'll get to work on it rightaway. Thanks again.
