Finding the right Instagram influencers manually is time-consuming and often inaccurate. Scrolling through hashtags, checking profiles, verifying engagement - these tasks can take days or weeks.

With this n8n workflow powered by Piloterr's APIs, you can automate influencer discovery based on precise criteria and get a curated list of potential partners delivered straight to your Google Sheet.

What does this workflow do?

  • Automatically searches for influencers based on your specific niche and keywords
  • Filters results by follower count, location, language, and other criteria
  • Detects and removes duplicate profiles
  • Retrieves detailed information about each influencer
  • Stores all data in a structured Google Sheet for easy analysis
  • Runs on a schedule or manually with a defined number of influencers to find
