See who engages with a competitor's posts
Brands mining a competitor's launch for warm creators and super-fans; agencies building seeding lists.
Paste the post URLs, choose which engagement to collect (likes, comments, comment likes) and whether to enrich. Zaver collects every liker and commenter across the posts, merges people who appear more than once, tags what each did, and, when enrichment is on, loads each profile for followers, bio, category and public contacts. A minimum follower count and verified-only filter keep it to creators.
You need
- 3–5 public post URLs (yours or a competitor's)
- A follower minimum if you want creators, not fans

Questions
Can I filter to creators only?
Use minimum followers and verified-only to drop ordinary fans, then run insight reports on the top names.
