Vet the audience before you buy the reach

Fake reach is expensive twice: you pay for it, then you pay again when the campaign underperforms or the brand gets embarrassed.

BotShark helps agencies and in-house teams screen accounts before contracts, seeding plans, or “community amplification” retainers.

Common checks

• Influencer and creator shortlists

• Comment seeding / reply programmes

• Giveaway and contest entrant samples

• Partner or affiliate account quality

How to brief a client

Bring the report URL, the top findings in plain language, and a clear caveat: high likelihood means behavioural patterns lined up — not a legal finding. Recommend human review on anyone you would spend real budget on.

See pricing for plan fit, or contact for higher-volume agency work. For purchased-follower risk on a creator, run a follower audit after the account-level scan.
