Keeping with our series comparing Instagram automation tools from around the web, today we’re looking at Hypez.
The purpose behind these comparisons is to choose The Only Instagram Growth Agency you will need in 2022.
What is Hypez? According to their website,
“Hypez.com is the internet’s number one website for purchasing top-quality Instagram followers.”
Hypez has been getting a lot of traction recently, and it’s a service we’ve heard more and more about. We wanted to see what all the hype was about, so we put Hypez to the test against our own Instagram growth solution, AiGrow.
Our comparison consisted of four categories:
- Setup
- Connecting Instagram account
- Features
- Maintenance
Hypez vs. AiGrow – a comparison of the two Instagram growth services.
Setup
Hypez
Start by heading over to www.hypez.com.
To start, click “Buy Instagram Followers” or “Buy Instagram Likes.”
After providing your Instagram username, email, and payment information, your part is done.
Alternatively, if you are looking to buy automatic Likes, click “Sign up now” at the top of the homepage next to “REAL LIKES 7 DAYS FREE TRIAL”.
You are then brought to another site called www.promoder.com. Click “Free Trial” under any of the price options to start.
If you were buying Instagram followers, you are then required to provide your Instagram username and email. After providing your payment information, your part is done.
According to Hypez, you can expect to receive your Likes in a matter of minutes, but new followers may take up to several days to show up.
AiGrow
Get started with AiGrow in three simple steps:
1) Go to www.AiGrow.me, or search “AiGrow” in Google and choose the first result
2) When on the homepage, click “Free Trial” in the upper right corner.
3) Provide your name, email, desired password, and click “Register Now.”
Congrats! You’ve just set up AiGrow.
Connecting Instagram Account
Hypez
As described above, connecting your Instagram account is as simple as providing your username when making your purchase.
AiGrow
After logging into your AiGrow account, you will be brought to your dashboard, which looks like this:
Here you can see all of your connected Instagram accounts (you can add and grow multiple Instagram accounts simultaneously). To add a new account, click “Add Instagram Account.”
From here, log in to your Instagram account as you normally would on your phone.
AiGrow will ask you to provide a 6-digit verification code sent to your phone or email by Instagram.
AiGrow encrypts your password and will not share it with anyone or use it for anything not related to growing your followers.
Features
Hypez
Hypez offers the following features:
- Buy Instagram Followers in bulk
- Buy Instagram Likes in bulk for your posts
- Buy Automatic Likes for your post
Manual options require you to go and manually choose the posts that you would like to receive the Likes or Views. Automated options will automatically distribute your Likes whenever you upload a new post as shown in the video below:
If you choose the automated option, you also have access to a dashboard with statistics about your posts’ engagement.
AiGrow
Unlike Hypez, which delivers untargeted Likes and followers to your account, AiGrow uses your account to automatically like, follow, unfollow, and comment on real channels to drive relevant and organic traffic back to your own channel (and ultimately converting that traffic to followers).
This way, instead of buying new followers in bulk who don’t necessarily fit your target audience (which is especially important if you are a small business or brand), you’re gaining exactly the kind of new followers you want for your channel. You’re doing it almost as quickly as you would if you bought them in bulk.
With AiGrow, you can target Instagram users based on:
- hashtags they use
- competitors they follow
- where they’re located
- custom lists of usernames
- whether or not they’re public or private
- whether or not you have already followed (and then unfollowed) in the past
In addition to the above features, you can also select a category that you think best fits your channel. We’ll use this information to refine your targeting further.
You also don’t have to worry about engaging with irrelevant or risky channels as you have complete control over the types of users you interact with, and at no point will AiGrow perform any action from your Instagram account without your permission.
AiGrow also automatically unfollows any person you follow but who doesn’t follow you back within a certain amount of time. This helps keep your follower/following ratio proportional and natural-looking.
To gain a better sense of the number of targeting options available for each of these features, have a peek at the short video below:

Maintenance and Support
Hypez
If you are buying automated packages, the maintenance is super simple. Once you make the purchase, your part is done. All you have to do is wait for your Likes to show up whenever you upload a new post.
If you are buying manual packages, you will have to go in every time you upload a new post and manually distribute your Likes. The same goes for if you buy followers in bulk.
If you do experience any issues, both Hypez and its affiliate site Promoder offer extensive FAQs, as well as contact forms that you can use to voice any issues, questions, or concerns you may have.
AiGrow
After setting up your targeting options, hit “Start Growth.” AiGrow will start to run and continue until you tell it to stop, never overstepping the limits imposed by Instagram.
If for whatever reason, something forces your growth to stop, we will automatically let you know through email and provide possible solutions, as shown in the example below:
If you experience an issue, you can also likely find an answer on our 25+ FAQ page. We also offer free one-on-one appointments to help get your account set up, and we’re always available by email.
Price
Hypez
For followers, Hypez’s prices can be found below:
For Likes, the prices are as follows:
For automated Likes, the prices are as follows:
With automated packages, users are entitled to a 7-day free trial. For non-automated packages, while users get 40 free Likes for one of their posts, there does not appear to be any options for refunds.
AiGrow
AiGrow offers a five-day free trial offering absolutely full functionality with no limit for the number of followers you can receive.
Unlike generator services like Famoid, which only provide you with a set number of followers, when you use AiGrow’s automatic growth engine, there are no limits put in place – you can potentially gain an unlimited number of real, genuine followers with any of AiGrow’s packages.
Below is AiGrow’s starter price package for consideration after your five-day free trial:
For the price of a week’s worth of Starbucks, you get the opportunity for exponential Instagram growth (the use of automated DMs, a content scheduler (post photos from your desktop for days, weeks, or months ahead), 24/hour support, and the opportunity for unlimited growth on multiple accounts.)
Summary
While Hypez may give you an instant boost in the number of likes or followers you have, this does little for your long-term growth. Even if you choose their automatic Likes option, you only receive Likes on your own posts and do not draw real engaged followers back to your page.
This is why using an automation tool like AiGrow makes more sense for longer-term growth. While you don’t get the immediate surge in followers, you do grow real and engaged followers at a much faster, longer-lasting rate than if you were to grow your Instagram naturally. You also get access to far more features and targeting options, all for a more affordable price.
For example, $37/month with Hypez gets you the following:
- 250 Likes and/or Views per post (maximum 8 posts per day)
$29/month with AiGrow gets you the following
- Unlimited automated Likes, comments, follows, unfollows, and DMs
- Ability to target users based on hashtag use, location, and competitor connection
- Ability to target specific users from an excel list
- Ability to send DMs, respond to DMs, and manage your DM inbox all from your desktop
- Content scheduler to schedule your posts for days, weeks, and/or months ahead (all from your desktop)
- Daily safeguards for all actions (Likes, comments, follows, DMs, etc.) to help prevent your account from being flagged
- Customizable comments
- Customizable DMs
- Alternating tags for comments and DMs (Hey/Hello/Hi/What’s up… etc.)
- Daily safeguards to help prevent your account from being flagged
- Free one-on-one appointments to help get your account properly set up
- In-app analytics
- Automatic email notifications in the rare case you encounter an issue with our service (and a proposed solution to the issue)
