# What SaTT can measure on each social network

> The tracking capabilities matrix: ownership, views, likes, shares and followers on YouTube, X, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn today.

Published by SaTT · Last updated 2026-10-29 · Features · https://satt.com/guides/features/network-capabilities

## In short

SaTT measures YouTube fully, X, TikTok and Instagram with limits, and cannot yet measure Facebook or LinkedIn posts. The app reads a live [capabilities](https://satt.com/guides/glossary#capabilities) matrix and only offers networks and prices it can actually measure, marking the rest “Limited” or “Coming soon”.

## What can SaTT measure today, network by network?

## Why are some networks “Limited”?

- **Data quota**: X, TikTok and Instagram numbers come from a data provider whose daily quota is small during the [alpha](https://satt.com/guides/glossary#alpha). The cells become fully available with a larger plan.
- **App reviews pending**: Meta (Instagram, Facebook) and TikTok apps are still in development or sandbox mode, so official sign-in works only for test accounts until the networks approve the apps. A [bio code](https://satt.com/guides/glossary#bio-code) works meanwhile.
- **What the network exposes**: Instagram photos have no view count; YouTube and Instagram do not expose shares; LinkedIn sign-in proves the person but not their posts.

## How does the app adapt to the matrix?

- In [Create](https://satt.com/create), a network that cannot be measured for the chosen payment mode is disabled and badged “Coming soon”; one with restrictions is badged “Limited”.
- Price editors only show the prices a network can earn on (no per-share price on Instagram or YouTube).
- Fixed-price pools need a readable follower count to place creators in an [audience tier](https://satt.com/guides/glossary#audience-tier).
- When a creator submits a post from a network that cannot be measured yet, the app says it will be reviewed manually.
- My stats shows only measurable columns per network.

## What about Quest action checks?

Quest actions have their own [verification tiers](https://satt.com/guides/glossary#verification-tier). Today a YouTube subscribe is checked automatically, comments with a code are checked on YouTube, TikTok and Instagram, and X follows, likes and reposts are honor-based until an X app bearer is configured. Other networks’ follows and likes are honor-based because no public API exposes them. See [Quests](https://satt.com/guides/features/quests).

## Key takeaways

- YouTube is fully measurable; X, TikTok and Instagram are limited by quota during the alpha.
- Facebook and LinkedIn posts cannot be measured yet.
- Instagram photos have no views; YouTube and Instagram expose no shares.
- The app only offers networks and prices it can measure, with “Limited” and “Coming soon” badges.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I run a LinkedIn campaign?

Not as a measured AdPool today: LinkedIn sign-in proves identity only, so LinkedIn posts cannot be verified. For B2B audiences, see [B2B and LinkedIn](https://satt.com/guides/use-cases/b2b-linkedin).

### Is the matrix fixed?

No. The server builds it at runtime from its configuration and a daily probe, so cells change as quotas and app approvals change.

### Why does my Instagram photo show no views?

Instagram exposes view counts only for videos and Reels. A photo post can be paid on likes in a performance pool, or by a fixed price per post.
