Can you sponsor them?
Not known. Nothing on record either way. Ask them directly.
Estimate about $540 for one sponsored post
Ask them directly 271,070 followers x $2 per 1,000 followers as a rule of thumb (Sprout Social, 30 May 2024). Benchmark: Sprout Social, Influencer pricing ↗. This is our arithmetic on a published benchmark, not a quote from the creator.
What we checked
20 checks, 15 passed, 1 to review
| ✓ | Metrics came from the platform | Every audience figure here is a value X'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 | 12 recent posts sampled (target 12). | not published |
| ✓ | Average impressions ≥ 20,000 | 2,738,823 average impressions, median 582,743, across 12 posts. | required |
| ✓ | Typical post also clears 20,000 | Median impressions 582,743 and outlier-trimmed mean 1,873,576 both clear the floor. A sponsored post should land in that range. | integrity |
| ✓ | Tech / dev / software engineering | 3 distinct dev signals in the bio and post text: software, llm, copilot. | required |
| ✓ | Not a gaming channel | No gaming signal in the text. X 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 creator's self-entered location text. Self-reported by the creator, same as a platform country field. Shown with its confidence rather than treated as independently verified. | required |
| ✓ | Like rate ≥ 0.15% of impressions | 0.65% like rate, 0.029% comment rate, averaged per post. | integrity |
| ! | Average is not one viral outlier (X limit 15×) | Top post is 23.8× the median (13,888,077 vs 582,743 impressions), against a typical X spread well below 15×. The average is carried by one hit. Budget against the median, roughly 582,743 impressions, not the headline average. | integrity |
| ✓ | Comment volume matches the view counts | Median 196 comments against 4,451 median likes: a normal ratio. | integrity |
| ✓ | impressions plausible for the followers count | 2,738,823 average impressions against 271,070 followers (1010%). | integrity |
| ✓ | Posted recently | Last post 9 day(s) ago. | preference |
| ✓ | Publishes on a regular schedule | Median 1 day(s) between posts; the 12 sampled posts span 331 days. | preference |
| ✓ | Sampled posts are recent enough to compare | The 12 sampled posts span 331 days, close enough together that their impressions counts are comparable. | integrity |
| – | Same numbers from two endpoints of the same API | No post from this account appeared in both the search index and the profile feed, so there was nothing to cross-check. | not published |
| – | Verified against the platform's own published feed | X 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 | x labels this a "Creator" account. | 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 |
