Why this scored 18

every term, weighted
Velocity+0.0 / 40 max

Its fastest-moving item, measured against the pace of its own source

Acceleration+11.2 / 25 max

Whether that velocity is itself speeding up, as a per-hour rate

Cross-source spread+0.0 / 25 max

How many independent communities its own items come from

Recency+8.4 / 10 max

Decays to zero over 14 days, counted from when we first saw it

Saturation penalty2.0 / 30 max

Subtracted once something is big and old — sized by its biggest item, aged from when we first saw it

Composite17.6

Weights are hand-tuned, not learned — we're calibrating them against realized trends as history accumulates. On an entity's first sighting there's no previous reading to compare against, so acceleration starts from a neutral prior rather than a measurement, and velocity falls back to engagement over its whole lifetime until a second reading exists.

Not enough history yet — the trend line fills in as snapshots accrue (every 30 min).

The evidence

The live items this entity's score aggregates — every community independently talking about it right now. This is the corroboration, shown, not claimed.
