Bot Score Deep Dive
The Bot Score is our proprietary metric that quantifies how likely an account's followers are to be fake or automated. Understanding this score is crucial for making informed decisions.
How It's Calculated
Our algorithm analyzes multiple signals:
- Follower-to-Following Ratio — Real accounts typically have balanced ratios.
- Engagement Rate — Low engagement relative to followers suggests fake audience.
- Profile Completeness — Bots often have incomplete profiles.
- Posting Patterns — Automated accounts show irregular posting behavior.
- Account Age vs. Growth — Rapid growth in new accounts is suspicious.
Score Ranges
- 0-15% — Excellent. Very authentic audience.
- 15-30% — Good. Normal range for most real accounts.
- 30-50% — Concerning. Notable fake follower presence.
- 50-75% — Poor. Majority of followers are likely fake.
- 75-100% — Critical. Almost entirely fake audience.
