Pull score
5/5

How hard it moved viewers to save, share, and comment.

Why this qualified

Handler logged this app demo post at 844K views, a jump of 62x over the account's median. The Outlier score is exactly that jump, and with 14K views being ordinary for this account the breakout stands well clear of its own baseline. That is the bar every post in this library has cleared.

Saves and shares carry the most weight in a Pull score, and this post's landed at 5/5 (27.9% weighted). It promotes A daily affirmations widget app. Pull is the intent side of the two scores - a post can rack up views and still convert nothing, so Handler tracks reach and Pull as separate reads.

The counts behind those scores: 132K likes, 531 comments, 14K shares, and 12K saves. Saves and shares are weighted heaviest because they are the actions that carry a post into more feeds.

The full breakdown - why the hook works, the comment-intent read, and the ready-to-shoot dupe kit - lives inside Handler.

Anatomy

The six-second video opens directly on a screen recording of an affirmation app interface. There is no spoken audio. A prominent on-screen text overlay establishes the hook, framing a relationship scenario about receiving a text message before midnight. The video unfolds across a single continuous scene with swift pacing, displaying the mobile UI as daily affirmation widgets and notifications appear on the screen. The accompanying post caption repeats the relational hook and includes a clear call to search for the specific app name in the app store, keeping the product interface front and center for the entire duration of the clip.
