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

Why this qualified

An outlier is a post that beats the account's own baseline, and this app demo one did by 430x - 394K views where a normal post on the account lands near 915. Reach on that scale is a signal about the post, not the audience size, which is exactly why Handler pulls it into the library instead of letting it scroll past.

The product behind the post is The Millfield Tapes. Pull came in at 5/5, 21.5% on the weighted scale - Handler's read on saves, shares, and comments, with saves and shares counted heaviest because they are the actions that carry a post into new feeds rather than just marking approval.

Broken out, the post drew 29K likes, 90 comments, 3.4K shares, and 10K saves. Those are the numbers the Outlier and Pull scores are built from, nothing modelled or projected.

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