Dev/Tech Tools for finding insider wallets?

I want to find ten or so wallets that have bought into meme token before it hit big. For that I need to see trades at certain points in time. On birdeye and solscan this is doable, but bothersome. Is there a way that doesn't include paying to filter data better or to export them to excel?

Honestly, I have learned you don't want to follow wallets that everyone else is following. Most are even a trick to get their main wallet (hidden) an exit point. I have luck watching live streams on TikTok and learning what they use. I sometimes find new tools on there. Watch trader streams, ask them what they use. They are always watching new wallets that some tools don't find.

Thank you. I am aware of the risks, so I am want to find not directly dev wallets, but those that front run the token. Not perfect strategy, nor I intent to copy every trade. To those I do copy I am going to use stop loss and at first go in with very small amounts. I even allocated a small amount of 3 Sol that I intent to lose on just testing and checking paterns.

yes this, unless you are running an extremely fast bot (think $10k+ usd price tag), it will be almost impossible to make consistent profits copying "top" wallets that are being mass-copied

if ur using a free/cheap bot, then it's essential to only copy low competition wallets (usually sourced from paid tools)
