The 30–60 minute wait

When you add a profile, its posts don't appear instantly — and that's expected.

Three things run back to back: Huntit collects the profile's recent history, reads every post with AI, then works out what top performance means for that exact profile. That depth is why it typically takes 30–60 minutes — and it's how the first winners can surface at all.

An empty feed during that window is normal, not stuck. None of it needs anything from you.

Add several profiles at once and they don't all start together. Huntit collects a few at a time; the rest wait in line, their pages say so, and each one's clock starts when its turn comes.

How do I know it's ready?

The profile's own page is the real status, and it carries one of two words.

Verifying means Huntit is still checking the account can be tracked at all — nothing is collected yet, and there's no need to sit and watch. Setting up means the first collection is running, and the card names how many posts have landed so far.

The note clears and the posts fill in when it's done.

The notification bell pings when the profile is ready — a shortcut straight back to that page.

Instagram takes longer

Instagram profiles can take longer than the others — up to around 30 minutes just for the first posts to show, and the full collection can run past the usual hour. A quiet Instagram profile in the first while is not a fault.

Is my feed broken?

Almost certainly not. Check its own page — it tells you which of two things is true.

A profile still in line hasn't started collecting yet, and needs nothing from you. A first collection that stopped partway says so, and carries a Try collecting again button that disappears once you press it — see a profile stopped collecting.

Either way, don't re-add the profile and don't delete it.

From here on there's nothing to run on your side: Huntit finds new posts on its own, about every 15 minutes.
