ViralWise

For Instagram Reels

Find the Reels that beat a creator's usual views. And see why.

ViralWise badges every reel on a creator's Reels tab with its Wise Score, then shows the transcript, the hook and why it worked. Right inside Instagram, in Chrome.

  • Free plan
  • Google sign-in
  • No Instagram password, ever

How it works

Three steps. No setup.

  1. Step 1

    Install and sign in with Google

    Add the extension to Chrome on your computer and sign in with Google. We never ask for your Instagram password.

  2. Step 2

    Open any creator's Reels tab

    Go to instagram.com, open a creator's profile and click the Reels tab. That's the only place ViralWise works.

  3. Step 3

    See what broke out, and why

    Badges appear on every reel. Click one for the transcript and why it worked. Press Scan for a full report.

The Wise Score

One number that says "this one beat the usual."

Wise Score (×) = the reel's views ÷ the creator's usual views. A 4.2× reel got more than four times what that creator normally gets.

Usual views = the median of their 30 most recent qualifying reels. Pinned reels and reels under 72 hours old are left out, so one lucky post can't skew it.

A Wise Score of 3× or more means the reel broke out. The virality score (0–100) blends reach, engagement and speed.

Creator report

Press Scan on a Reels tab. ViralWise builds 12 cards (usual views, Wise Score hit rate, posts per week, engagement and more), a chart of Wise Scores over time, a "when they post" heatmap in India time, length, audio and hashtag breakdowns, and a sortable list of every reel.

Every transcript stays in the language and script it was spoken in. Many Indian languages are supported, and Hindi is never shown in Urdu script.

English

English stays English

"Here's the exact framework I used to grow."

Hinglish

Hinglish stays in Roman letters

"Yeh trick try karo, reach double ho jayegi."

Hindi

Hindi in Devanagari, with a Roman switch

"यह ट्रिक ज़रूर आज़माइए।"

Spoken hook with one-click copy Existing transcripts are free; new ones use credits
