The 6 Factors

Every match is built on six weighted signals

Each factor contributes a weighted percentage to the final composite score. Weights are optimised for influencer marketing conversion outcomes.

Niche Alignment

25%

Exact match between brand industry and creator's content niche. Cross-references primary category, keywords, and audience interest signals.

Engagement Quality

25%

Combined likes, comments, and view-to-sub ratio. Rewards authentic interactions and penalises inflated follower counts.

Reach Scale

15%

Subscriber count tier converted to a 0–1 reach score — from Nano (10K) through Mega (5M+).

Growth Momentum

15%

30-day subscriber growth rate normalised to a momentum score. Channels growing fast score higher and flag early-mover opportunities.

Content Style

10%

Short-form vs. long-form ratio matched against campaign format preference. Penalises extreme ratios when the brief needs a balanced mix.

Consistency

10%

Videos-per-month converted to a reliability score. Consistently posting creators earn higher trust and better delivery guarantees.

Score Interpretation

What your Composite Match Score means

70–100Strong Match

High alignment across multiple factors. Pursue this creator — strong chance of campaign efficiency and audience resonance.

40–69Moderate Match

Some alignment present. May work well with the right content brief and creative direction. Worth a deeper conversation.

20–39Weak Match

Low alignment — notable friction in niche, audience, or style. Consider alternative creators in your roster first.

0–19Poor Match

Misalignment across most factors. Not recommended for this campaign. Use for reference against better-matched alternatives.
