Pull score
5/5

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

Why this qualified

1M views on a app demo post, 41x the account's usual reach. The Outlier score reads reach as a multiple of the account's own median, and that median sits around 24K 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 (10.1% 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 Mela - Recipe Manager. Reach gets a post seen; Pull is the read on whether it landed.

By the raw numbers the post logged 22K likes, 355 comments, 14K shares, and 5.8K saves - the metrics Handler weighs into its Pull read, and the same figures you see in the panel above.

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

Anatomy

The 16-second video opens immediately on an in-app demonstration of a cooking application. A brief single-word spoken hook line, 'What?', plays at the start while the screen displays the digital recipe interface. The video moves across two main visual beats at a brisk pace, showing direct screen interactions and feature navigation within the software. Visual text overlays remain minimal, keeping the primary focus on the screen recording itself. The mobile app interface stays front and center across the full duration of the clip, concluding on the final recipe result generated within the tool.
