Pull score
5/5

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

Why this qualified

Handler logged this app demo post at 89K views, a jump of 40x over the account's median. The Outlier score is exactly that jump, and with 2.2K 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 (15.3% weighted). It promotes A media curation and tracking 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.

Underneath the two scores sit the actual counts - 9.1K likes, 237 comments, 287 shares, and 733 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 seven-second silent video opens directly on a full-screen mobile app interface. The post moves at a rapid pace through two primary visual beats without spoken audio or custom text overlays. In the first beat, an in-app interaction triggers a digital unboxing or pack-opening sequence. The second beat immediately reveals the resulting character card graphic on screen. The featured application remains visible and active throughout the entire runtime, serving as the sole visual focus of the video, while contextual details about the specific character pull appear only in the accompanying post caption.
