Scoring & Ranking
Score each creator by:
followers→ normalized 0-1 (cap at 1M), weight 0.35engagement_rate = (likes + comments) / views→ weight 0.35video_views→ normalized 0-1 (cap at 1M), weight 0.30
python
score = 0.35 * min(followers / 1000000, 1.0) + 0.35 * min(engagement_rate / 0.10, 1.0) + 0.30 * min(views / 1000000, 1.0)Classification
| Score | Tier | Label |
|---|---|---|
| ≥ 0.70 | A | PRIME_CREATOR |
| 0.40–0.69 | B | GOOD_FIT |
| < 0.40 | C | LOW_PRIORITY |
Edge Cases
- No music URL: Requires TikTok sound page URL. Tell user to find the sound on TikTok and copy the URL from the "sounds" page.
- Sound removed: If sound was taken down for copyright, URL returns empty. Try alternative sound.
- Trending sound has too many creators: Use maxItems cap and sort by engagement.
- Duplicate creators: Same creator may use the sound multiple times — deduplicate by channel.username.
- Regional sound: Some sounds trend in specific countries — results may reflect that audience.
