Questions about Reel Research
How do I find trending reels on Instagram for my niche?
Type your topic, like “home workout” or “budget travel”, and pick a time period. Pixtale searches public Instagram reels for that topic and ranks the ones getting the most views and likes, so you see what is trending in your niche without scrolling.
Can I see the views on these reels?
Yes. Each reel shows its views where Instagram makes them public, along with likes, comments, length and posting date, so you can judge how popular it is without opening Instagram.
Which plans include Reel Research?
Reel Research is part of Plus and Pro. Plus gives you 2 topics a day with 12 reels each and an AI playbook. Pro gives you 3 topics a day, 24 reels each, and explains why every reel worked. Each new topic uses one analysis from your monthly allowance, which is shared with account analyses.
How does it help me get reel ideas?
Pixtale reads the captions, hooks, hashtags and length of the winning reels and turns them into ideas you can film next, with hook lines and a caption template on Plus and Pro.
Which hashtags should I use on my reels?
The results list the hashtags the top reels in your topic actually use, how often, and how well those reels did, so you can pick tags that are working right now instead of guessing.
Do I need to connect my Instagram account?
No. Reel Research only uses public reels. You never share your password, and nothing is posted to your account.

Reels come from public Instagram search results for your topic, ranked by views. Reels that only share words with your topic are filtered out. The AI reads captions and numbers, not the video itself. Pixtale isn't affiliated with Instagram.
