What we checked, in full
20 checks, 16 passed, 1 to review
| ✓ | Metrics came from the platform | Every audience figure here is a value TikTok's own API returned, never estimated or inferred. The price estimate is the one number we work out ourselves, and it is labelled and shows its arithmetic. | not published |
| ✓ | Enough recent posts to judge | 6 recent posts sampled (target 6). | not published |
| ✓ | Average plays ≥ 20,000 | 28,080 average plays, median 19,550, across 6 posts. | required |
| ! | Typical post also clears 20,000 | The average clears the floor but the median post gets 19,550 plays. The brief's bar is met on the average; a sponsored slot would more likely perform near the median. | integrity |
| ✓ | Tech / dev / software engineering | 10 distinct dev signals in the bio and post text: software, programming, coding, engineer, runtime, leetcode. | required |
| ✓ | Not a gaming channel | No gaming signal in the text. TikTok publishes no content category, so this is a text judgement. | required |
| ✓ | Not a hardware / gear channel | No hardware/gear pattern. | preference |
| ✓ | Target region (US / UK / EU / AU / NZ / SG) | United States (US), from the platform's own country field. | required |
| ✓ | Like rate ≥ 1.5% of plays | 7.88% like rate, 0.112% comment rate, averaged per post. | integrity |
| ✓ | Average is not one viral outlier (TikTok limit 26×) | Top post is 4.4× the median, within the normal spread for TikTok, so the average reflects repeatable performance. | integrity |
| ✓ | Comment volume matches the view counts | Median 17 comments against 1,005 median likes: a normal ratio. | integrity |
| ✓ | plays plausible for the followers count | 28,080 average plays against 4,076 followers (689%). | integrity |
| ✓ | Posted recently | Last post 6 day(s) ago. | preference |
| ✓ | Publishes on a regular schedule | Median 5 day(s) between posts; the 6 sampled posts span 23 days. | preference |
| ✓ | Sampled posts are recent enough to compare | The 6 sampled posts span 23 days, close enough together that their plays counts are comparable. | integrity |
| ✓ | Same numbers from two endpoints of the same API | 3 post(s) appeared in both the TikTok search index and the profile feed. View counts agree to within 0.0%. | integrity |
| – | Verified against the platform's own published feed | TikTok publishes no independent public feed to check the API's numbers against. YouTube is the only platform here where that second source exists. | not published |
| ✓ | An independent creator, not a company's own channel | Nothing marks this as a company-run channel: it is not a known company account, the name carries no corporate designation, and the bio is not written in a company's voice. | required |
| – | Same person confirmed on other platforms | No other public profile was linked from this account, so this record covers one platform only. | not published |
| – | Runs paid promotions (platform-declared) | Sponsorships shown for this creator are parsed from the text of their own post descriptions, so they are suspected rather than platform-confirmed. | not published |
