Field notes
The tool separates qualification from ranking: the stated thresholds determine which videos enter, while the breakout score orders those that qualify. Its category and market boards can be filtered, sorted, or compared, and the page says each row exposes score components for scrutiny. Figures are captured snapshots refreshed on re-scrape, so views-per-day is an average since publication rather than a live rate.
