Pull score
5/5

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

Why this qualified

Running 1299x the account's own baseline, this post reached 1.4M views against the 1.1K a normal post there sees. That is the whole test for an outlier in Handler - reach measured against the account's own median rather than against other accounts, so a small account with a genuine breakout still qualifies while a big account coasting on its size does not.

A recipe organizer and importer app is the product on screen. Where reach gets a post seen, Pull - here 5/5, 12.9% weighted - is what says viewers acted on it, since saves and shares weigh in hardest and a save is the clearest sign a viewer means to come back.

Underneath the two scores sit the actual counts - 53K likes, 40 comments, 11K shares, and 20K 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 17-second video opens directly on a mobile screen interface, pairing silent footage with a bold on-screen text overlay about hoarding saved cooking videos. The post moves through roughly three distinct UI beats at a steady pace. First, it displays a saved recipe clip from a social feed, followed by copying the link and switching directly into the cooking app interface. The subsequent scenes show the app automatically parsing the video content into an organized ingredient list and step-by-step instructions. Text overlays guide each transition in place of spoken audio, keeping the product screen front and center from start to finish.
