Our reviewer read version 38.5.1 — the most recent version we have reviewed — and found no malicious behaviour. The version shown here has not been individually reviewed yet.

What our analysis found

INSSIST | Web Client for Instagram, used by 600,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. It comes from a trusted publisher and was last updated in October 2026.

Analyst notes

The extension's permissions and code are fully consistent with its stated functionality as an Instagram assistant. All data communication is limited to the publisher's own domains ([domain withheld], [domain withheld]) and the payment processor FastSpring, with no evidence of exfiltration, tracking, or credential theft. The ML model likely overfit on high DOM manipulation and XHR interception patterns necessary for interacting with Instagram's web interface.
