A typical post picks up 40 interactions against 753K followers, an engagement rate of 0.005%. Measured over 8 original posts, its engagement rate beats 25% of 3,758 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 8.3K times each, and 0.474% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.11% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.
Measured over 8 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 1, 2026.
