Ranking method

CA Influence Index™ (CII): how we grade German running influencers

CII is a market-relative score from 0 to 99. It combines local audience fit, engagement against creators of the same size, average Reel views, and estimated real-audience share. The creators above are ordered by this score, not by follower count.

25%of the score

Audience fit

How much of the audience sits in the German market. Full marks once 80% of it is there.

30%of the score

Engagement

Likes and comments against creators of the same size here. Full marks at 3x that median.

30%of the score

View power

Average Reel views against follower count. Full marks at twice the following.

15%of the score

Audience quality

Share of followers reading as real people. Full marks at 90%.

Engagement is scored against the German median for a creator’s own size: around 1% under 50K followers, around 0.9% above 250K. Both are rounded, because the study measures them by search rather than by census.

  • A+90-99
  • A80-89
  • B65-79
  • C50-64
  • Dunder 50

The score is capped at 99 so it never implies certainty. Read the full CA Influence Index methodology. The benchmark is national, not global. Here is the market behind it.

Market benchmark

The German Instagram market behind this ranking

The 25 influencers above against the German Instagram market: each row puts their median next to the market's.

Read the Germany Creator Economy Report, the measurement this chart is scored against.

How the selected 25 compare with Germany

  • Pink = the 25 running influencers above
  • Grey = a typical German Instagram account with 10K+ followers
  • Each bar is a median, not an average, so one very large account cannot pull a row up

Median German audience share

the selected 25: 70%
German influencers: 27%

Median engagement rate

the selected 25: 4.6%
German influencers: 1.1%

Median Reel views per post

the selected 25: 29,017
German influencers: 6,500

Source: the Click Analytic German market study, measured 2 September 2026. Grey bars show median estimates for Instagram creators in Germany with at least 10,000 followers and at least 1% local-audience share. The study includes accounts with an inferred creator gender; market medians are rounded estimates. Pink bars are computed from the 25 cards above.

Frequently asked questions

What brands usually check before briefing anyone on this page.

01How were these 25 chosen?

German bios naming running returned 325 Instagram accounts inside the 10,000 to 1,000,000 band. Engagement of 2% or better, a German audience of 30% or more, a post inside the past month, a real-follower share above 70% and Reel views averaging 1,000 or more were the five conditions. The 25 published here scored highest on the CA Influence Index.

02Why is the biggest account not first?

Pius Saier (@pius_saier) carries 118,226 followers, more than anyone else here, and comes sixteenth with an A at 81, because only 55% of that audience is in Germany. Sabrina Müller (@themiles.mom) leads on 42,254 followers, an A+ at 99, 109,636 average Reel views and an 80% German audience. Only 2 of the 25 accounts here are bigger than the leader.

03What does the CA Influence Index measure?

Size earns nothing. The score comes from the German share of the audience, the proportion of followers scored as real, engagement set against accounts in the same size band, Reel views measured against the following, and whether the account is still posting. This page holds nine A+ grades, eight A grades and eight B grades, spread across 16 distinct scores.

04How much of each audience is in Germany?

The median here is 70%. Finn-Ole Martins (@finnolemartins) is highest at 87% and Alicia (@alicia.adc) lowest at 34%. No account here sits under 30%. For a campaign aimed at Germany, read this column early: at 39% German, the 26,240 followers of Nessi Albers (@vanessa.albers78) reach a smaller German audience than the 24,472 of Nicole Munzert (@nicolefit.running) at 59%.

05Who is actually on this list?

Read from the bios: 7 multisport creators covering running with cycling, triathlon or Hyrox, 7 lifestyle creators posting running alongside food and daily life, 4 marathon and ultra racers, 3 coaches and nutrition advisors, 2 mothers posting family life and running, and 2 broadcasters with their own podcasts. That adds to 25. The trade matters more than the size of the account when you decide who can carry a product claim.

06How current is this data?

All of it dates from September 2026, and nothing here had been quiet for thirty days when the pull ran. German Reel view averages in particular swing between weeks, enough to reorder neighbouring cards, so check a profile again before money moves.
