Partial The alert and follow-diff UI is simple, but reliably reading who a public Instagram profile follows requires scraping a platform that actively blocks it, so the data pipeline is the real obstacle.
What it would actually take: The stack is a scheduled crawler that snapshots follower and following lists and bio fields, diffs them, and sends notifications. The hard part is data access: Instagram's following lists and anti-bot systems make scraping unreliable, so a real version needs rotating residential proxies, a commercial data provider, or an approach that accepts gaps. It also carries meaningful platform-policy and privacy risk that needs careful legal handling.
