## Engagement
- status: peak_post_only
- peak_post_engagement_rate: 0.00417
- best_post_interactions: 5
- measurement_source: x_post_interactions
- measurement_formula: interactions on one post — likes, or likes + reposts + replies depending on the discovery path (the two are not distinguishable in the stored data)
- comparable_pool: peak_interactions
- status_note: We have only the single best observed post, so no mean exists. peak_post_engagement_rate is an UPPER BOUND, systematically higher than an average — never compare it against an average rate.
- unit_note: engagement_rate and peak_post_engagement_rate are ratios (0-1); avg_interactions_per_post and best_post_interactions are absolute counts. Read status before reading any number: a null rate has several different causes and status says which one applies here.

## Evidence
- [x_thedanielbudai#f1b4d437] One peptide client had five different Meta ad accounts banned within two months. We eventually stopped taking on Meta work for peptide brands entirely. The ROAS numbers looked great on the surface, sometimes 20x or higher including view-through attribution. Strip that down to 7-d (https://twitter.com/thedanielbudai)
- [x_thedanielbudai#a77167be] A 20x ROAS on a peptide brand sounds unbeatable. It's actually a trap. Here's the math nobody puts in the screenshot: On Meta, we've seen 20 to 25x ROAS on peptide accounts. That number is real, but it's view-through attribution. Strip it down to last-click and it drops to 6 to 8

- commercial.audience_buyer_fit: source_type=ai_inferred, confidence=0.6, freshness_days=80, method=llm_scorer — Relative signal within Koinon indexing, not a market-wide score.
- commercial.promotion_intent: source_type=ai_inferred, confidence=0.6, freshness_days=80, method=llm_scorer
- quality.anomaly_flags: source_type=heuristic, confidence=0.5, freshness_days=111, method=profile_snapshot_and_engagement_ratio_heuristic — Means "worth a manual check", NOT confirmed fraud. Flags can be wrong and are not a verdict about the person.
- quality.authenticity_score: source_type=heuristic, confidence=0.5, freshness_days=80, method=Profile-shape heuristic from a single snapshot (follower count, following ratio, account age, posting volume, verification), reduced for engagement red flags where post engagement was collected. Where only a follower count is available the score saturates at 58. — The input set differs by platform; do not compare this score across platforms.
- quality.koinon_bd_grade: source_type=ai_inferred, confidence=0.5, freshness_days=111, method=llm_partner_fit_classifier + fit_score >= 0.6 AND authenticity >= 60 => A; fit_score >= 0.4 AND authenticity >= 45 => B; else C. authenticity < 30 or a promotional-pattern flag => quarantine. — Koinon partner-outreach fit, not creator quality.
