Shadowban
An unannounced reduction in a post's distribution. PodSwap estimates the risk from seven measurable signals rather than asserting it.
The scan weighs an engagement cliff (30), growth stagnation (15), hashtag reach decay (15), follow/unfollow churn (10), a posting frequency spike (10), content repetition (10) and an engagement velocity drop (10).
Results band as 0–25 healthy, 26–59 warning and 60 or above suppressed. Instagram publishes no shadowban status, so this is an inference from your own account data — never a confirmation.
