Audience Growth Projector

Enter your current followers or subscribers and a monthly growth rate to see where you'll be in 3, 6 and 12 months — and how long it'll take to hit a goal number.

Your audience

How much your following grows each month, as a percentage.
Leave blank if you just want the 3/6/12-month projections.

This uses compound monthly growth: each month's total is the previous month's total plus your growth rate. So after n months, your audience is roughly current × (1 + rate)n. If you set a goal, we work out how many months of growth at that rate it takes to reach it.

Typical monthly growth rates for accounts posting consistently: Instagram and LinkedIn often run around 2–4%, TikTok and YouTube can be higher (5–10%) when a channel is finding traction, X (Twitter) tends to be slower (1–3%), and email lists usually grow 1–3% per month from organic sign-ups. These are rough starting points — your real rate depends heavily on consistency and content quality.
