Pull score
5/5

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

Why this qualified

1.2M views on a app demo post, 962x the account's usual reach. The Outlier score reads reach as a multiple of the account's own median, and that median sits around 1.2K views, which is why the multiple matters more than the raw view count - it isolates the posts that outran their own channel instead of the ones riding a big following.

Its Pull score of 5/5 (19.3% weighted) measures how hard it moved viewers to save, share, and comment - the actions weighted heaviest because they signal real intent rather than a passing tap. The product it puts forward is Mise meal planning app. Reach gets a post seen; Pull is the read on whether it landed.

Underneath the two scores sit the actual counts - 76K likes, 177 comments, 13K shares, and 26K saves - the raw engagement Handler reads to place the post in its niche.

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

Anatomy

The video opens directly on an app interface without spoken audio, running for about 47 seconds. Text overlays and the caption frame the demonstration with an expressive, reactive hook. Across roughly five distinct visual beats, a hand or on-screen tap navigates through the meal-planning software, moving from recipe browsing to ingredient selection and an automated grocery cart builder. The pacing stays steady throughout, with cuts aligned to each step in the workflow rather than spoken cues. On-screen text labels and platform captions guide the progression across the interface, keeping the product's mobile UI centered in the frame from start to finish.
