What Reel Analytics shows

Viral Reels in the sidebar opens Reel Analytics: every reel from the accounts you track and from every account we track for you, the AvatarFactory Verified AI accounts and the Real human creators alike, in one table you can filter, sort and page through. The page is open on every plan and on every trial, Starter included. The one thing inside it that needs Creator or higher is Outperformers, covered below. The Copied tab is never gated either, so your own copies stay reachable on any plan.

The header has three tabs: Viral Reels, ☆ Favorites (the reels you starred) and Copied (your copy history, with a count). + Track New Account sits in the header too; a newly tracked account’s reels land in the table as they index.

The competitor tracking playbook covers how to read the table and which accounts are worth a slot.

Filter and sort

The toolbar above the table:

  • Sort by: Views / Hr, Views, Likes, Comments, Eng %, Followers, or Recently Posted.
  • Posted: 24 Hours, 7 Days, 30 Days, All Time, or Custom with your own dates.
  • Source: All, My Follows, or ✦ Verified. ✦ Verified is the AI influencer accounts we curate; it never includes the Real human creators, which sit under All.
  • Account and Category pickers, plus minimum and maximum fields for the numbers.
  • The number fields only take real values: counts start at 0 and Eng % runs from 0 to 100. A value outside that turns the field red with a note like “Eng % must be between 0 and 100” and is not applied until you fix it.
  • If a minimum is higher than its maximum, the pair turns red with “Min is higher than Max” and that range is not applied until you fix it.
  • Grid or table view. The grid plays the reel on the card; the table adds columns and a transcript drawer.

Save as default keeps your setup for next time. Starring a reel adds it to ☆ Favorites.

Outperformers

An outperformer is a reel that beat the account it was posted on. Open the filter panel and turn on the Outperformers Only switch, in the Performance group next to Views, Likes and Comments. The switch shows how many reels currently qualify. Turning it on also sorts the list by the multiple, so the biggest is first. If you picked your own sort, yours stays.

Filtering and sorting by outperformers comes with Creator and up, and it is the only paid line inside Viral Reels: on Starter and during the trial the switch and the Beats Its Account sort show a 🔒 Creator pill and open an upgrade prompt, while the badges below stay on every reel so you can still see which ones broke out.

A reel qualifies when both are true:

  • It has at least 5x the median views of that account’s other reels at the same age.
  • It has at least 10,000 views.

We compare a reel only to its own account, so a 40,000-view reel on a small account can outrank a 400,000-view reel on a huge one. We score an account once it has 10 reels with data. A reel is scored from 24 hours old until it turns 30 days old.

Qualifying reels carry a badge with the multiple, such as ▲ 6.2x. There are three tiers: 5x, 10x and 25x, shown as one, two or three arrows. Hover the badge to see what it is measured against, for example “6.2x the account’s own median at day 4”. This is not the same number as the reach chip next to the handle, which compares views to followers.

When nothing qualifies yet, the page says No outperformers yet. Track more accounts, or give the ones you track time to index.

Copy a reel into the wizard

Every reel carries two actions:

  1. ⧉ Copy Reel starts a Full Clone immediately (10 credits): the reel is broken into its shots, cuts, camera moves and props, and the wizard rebuilds the storyboard with your avatar. You go straight to the avatar step while the analysis runs.
  2. The transcript action pulls the words only, with no credit charge, and opens the wizard with the transcript as your script.

Either way you pick an avatar, the Source URL screen runs the flow with the link already filled in, and the Script step opens with the reel as the source card, including View Reel ↗. Full Clone and Transcribe explains both flows in detail.

Clicking ⧉ Copy Reel twice on the same reel does not start two clones. The queue recognizes the link.

The Copied tab

Every copy you start, from Reel Analytics, an account page or the wizard, is listed here with a badge:

BadgeMeaning
Queued”Waiting in line”
Copying”Copying the reel now”
DoneThe script is ready
FailedThe copy did not complete

Filter with All, In Progress, Done and Failed. A finished copy shows the first line of the script as its title, with New Video From This (opens the wizard in the same mode you copied with, replica or transcribe) and View Script. A failed copy has Retry and Cancel. Canceling asks “Cancel this copy?” and takes the reel off the queue, and you can paste its link again any time.

Use a reel from inside the wizard

The Source step’s From a followed account tile opens the same explorer inside the wizard, with Use ▾ on each row and ↻ Open to watch the original. Use ▾ transcribes the reel and jumps to the Script step with the reel’s handle and caption on the source card, along with its views, likes and comments.

If a reel is missing

The table shows reels that have been indexed by a scan. A reel posted after the account’s last scan appears on the next rescan. Tracked Competitors and Viral Radar explains the daily scan budget. Reels from accounts you archived drop out of My Follows but stay under All if the account is Verified.

Frequently asked questions

What does Views / Hr mean? +
It is the reel's views divided by the hours since it was posted, so a two-day-old reel with 200,000 views ranks above a two-year-old reel with a million. Sorting by Views / Hr is the fastest way to find what is climbing right now rather than what has already peaked.
