What is Threads?
Threads is Meta's text-based social network, launched on July 5, 2023. It hit 100 million signups in its first five days — the fastest-growing consumer app launch in history.
Threads doesn't use a separate identity system. It is built directly on top of Instagram's account graph, so every Threads account inherits its parent Instagram account's permanent numeric user ID.
How Threads user IDs evolved
From the very first IDs to today's modern numeric format — here's how the system grew alongside the platform itself.

Jul 2023
Threads launches with Instagram identity
You don't sign up for Threads — you log in with your existing Instagram credentials, and Threads automatically reuses your Instagram numeric user ID. Adam Mosseri's ID on both platforms is
95561. -
Late 2023
Web client adds @-handles
Threads launched the threads.net (now threads.com) web interface, exposing public profiles whose URLs follow the pattern
threads.com/@username. The numeric ID stays inherited from Instagram. -
Dec 2023
ActivityPub & federation
Threads began federating posts via ActivityPub (the same protocol Mastodon uses). Federated identifiers are derived from the same Instagram numeric ID.

2024+
Instagram unlinking trial
Meta has been testing the ability to use Threads without an Instagram account. Even in those flows, the underlying numeric ID is allocated from the same Instagram ID space.
What you get from a Threads lookup
Every Threads profile resolved through IDInfo returns these fields, all from public sources.

Why your Threads ID matters
- Cross-platform attribution: the shared ID lets you track the same creator on Instagram and Threads in a single record.
- Threads API (closed beta): Meta's upcoming Threads API uses the same Instagram-style numeric IDs.
- ActivityPub interop: federated mentions, reposts, and search reference the numeric ID under the hood.
- Survives renames: if a user changes their Instagram @handle, their Threads handle changes with it — but the numeric ID stays put.
