first.
A sponsorship decision costs $2,500–5,100 when it goes wrong — and the biggest mistake is chasing the athlete everyone already knows.
Search an athlete by name and ScoutGlimpse pulls the public numbers behind their X account in under a minute: verified followers, snapshot-backed growth, and matched news coverage — so you can move while they're still affordable.

How it works
From a name to a decision in minutesSearch a name
Over 12,000 college athletes from 68 schools are already in our directory. Type a name, or paste an X @handle for anyone else.
Add and read the report
One tap pulls the live public numbers. You get a report in under a minute: audience, rank among peers, growth, news and on-field stats.
Keep watching
Each athlete stays on your watchlist. We refresh them daily, so growth is real history, and we email you when a risky headline appears.
What is in every report
- Audience — live followers and posts, with the date they were read
- Audience rank — where they sit among comparable athletes (for example: top 8% of football players we track)
- Momentum — real growth over time, from snapshots, never an estimate
- Benchmark rates — a starting-point range for a post, a story, a campaign and a year, with the method explained
- Brand safety — news headlines matched to the athlete, with risky ones flagged
- On the field — season stats and national rankings where available
- PDF — a clean export to hand to whoever signs off (Growth plan)
- Before you sign — a short checklist of signals worth a second look, never a verdict
Why teams switch
Stop trusting a pitch deckSee the real numbers before you sign — for less than the cost of one bad sponsorship.
CreatorIQ and Traackr price for teams managing hundreds of deals. Most agencies sign a handful a year.
Average deal size on the open market, per OpenSponsorship's 2026 data. One stalled-audience athlete costs more than the subscription that would've flagged it.
No demo required. If it's not useful in the first lookup, cancel — no one will call you.
A sponsorship isn't a one-time purchase — it's a commitment to whatever that athlete does for the next 6–12 months. You don't want to find out about a problem from your client's angry email.
Product
One tool instead of threeLookup, tracking, and brand safety in a single subscription — everything you need to vet an athlete's real audience before you pay them.
Search & lookup
Search over 12,000 college athletes by name, then pull their live X numbers in one tap — or paste any X @handle. Real follower count and growth, plus Instagram and TikTok links from their school's roster page — no cooperation from the athlete required. YouTube channels work too, though few college athletes have one.
Watchlist
Track athletes you're considering or already work with. Every check builds a real, snapshot-backed growth history — never an estimate.
Brand safety
Real sports-news headlines matched to your watchlist by name. When one is flagged (investigation, arrest, lawsuit, suspension), we email you within hours, so you're not the last to know.
Discovery Growth
Browse athletes that fit a brand: filter our directory by sport, school, position, class and home state, narrow by audience size and see peer rank, an estimated post rate and who has more public lists than their audience suggests. Fast-growing YouTube channels are there too.
PDF export Growth
Turn any report into a clean PDF you can hand to whoever signs off on the deal — the real numbers, not a screenshot of your dashboard.
Compare Growth
Put up to 3 athletes side by side — followers, growth, audience rank, benchmark rates, standout stat — as one report or one exportable PDF.
Team logins Growth
Up to 5 separate logins for your agency, all sharing the same watchlist and reports — no passing around one shared password.

NCAA & NIL
Evidence, not a certificationSince NIL Go (Deloitte's clearinghouse) launched in mid-2025, every outside NIL deal over $600 has to clear a "fair market value" review — and the system has already rejected roughly $90 million in submitted deals, mostly for lack of justification, against $355 million approved.
On3, INFLCR, and NIL Go's own tools already do that job, mostly for free. We don't certify compliance and we're not a substitute for one of those.
Export a report or a side-by-side comparison as a PDF (Growth plan) — real follower counts, growth trend, and on-field stats, ready to attach as supporting evidence for your own NIL Go filing.
Reported local-business NIL deals cluster in exactly this band — not the seven-figure headlines. See real, sourced examples →
What we're not
Scope, on purposeBeing clear about this upfront saves everyone a support ticket later.
- Not a marketplace — we don't broker deals, collect commission, or handle payments between you and an athlete.
- Not a fair-market-value calculator — we don't certify NIL deal compliance. On3 and NIL Go already do that; we give you the raw comparable data to support your own assessment.
- Not a compliance or immigration advisor — talk to a lawyer for anything involving international student-athlete visa status.
