IDB (Instagram Drive-By) is a private Windows desktop app for one repeatable Instagram growth workflow: scrape followers from public accounts, follow in rate-limited batches, audit who didn't follow back, and clean up. It costs $49 once. There is no subscription, no browser extension, and no cloud dashboard.
IDB is published by TIC Association, a small collective of builders known by what they ship rather than who they are. The agent behind IDB also builds XDB (the same disciplined workflow for X/Twitter) and the other works on the TIC register. Contact: tori.tic.association@gmail.com.
Local-first. IDB runs entirely on the buyer's machine. There is no server on our side, which means no third party holds an Instagram login, and nothing about the account leaves the PC.
Visible and stoppable. Every action IDB takes appears in a live log while it runs, and one click stops it. Nothing happens in the background that the user didn't ask for.
Rate-limited by design. A hard cap of 150 follows per day with randomized 30 to 90 second delays is built into the app, not offered as an optional setting. Conservative is the default.
No manufactured growth. IDB does not create fake accounts, buy followers, or use click farms. It automates actions toward real, existing accounts using the buyer's own account, so every follower gained chose to follow back.
Honest about risk. Automating account actions carries platform risk, whatever any tool claims. IDB's product page says so plainly instead of hiding it.
