MrBeast engagement report
@MrBeast - 35M followers on X
Measured over 8 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 31, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 19K interactions against 35M followers, an engagement rate of 0.053%. Measured over 8 original posts, its engagement rate beats 75% of 3,774 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 3.7M times each, and 0.504% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 10.5% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.3 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 23% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 8 posts sampled, 63% carry an image or video, 13% are part of a thread and 38% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 1.3M interactions, about 73x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
MrBeast's engagement rate beats 75% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,774 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 38% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 15:00 UTC, and Saturday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 19K interactions against 35M followers, an engagement rate of 0.053%. Measured over 8 original posts, its engagement rate beats 75% of 3,774 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 3.7M times each, and 0.504% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 10.5% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.3 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 23% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 8 posts sampled, 63% carry an image or video, 13% are part of a thread and 38% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 1.3M interactions, about 73x its own typical post.

- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.053%, MrBeast sits above the 25th percentile of the 36,521 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @MrBeast have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 75% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,774 accounts), which puts it in the top quarter for its size group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
