The Lifecycle
Predictor
Efficiency is a function of timing. The Predictor categorizes narratives into five distinct stages. Stop publishing into the void of "Declining" trends and start capturing topics as they hit the Scaling Velocity.
Emerging
Low news volume. High social velocity outliers. Maximum ROI window.
Scaling
Narrative is breaking into mainstream silos. High engagement expected.
Peak
Market saturation. Dominant headlines established. ROI begins to diminish.
Maturing
General consensus reached. High competition for scraps of attention.
Fading
Attention has shifted. Topic becomes "Noise." Pivot recommended.
The Resurgence Engine (Ghost Signals)
History doesn't repeat, but it does rhyme. Our Keyword Fingerprinting detects when a dormant topic is resurging. By comparing current RAKE keywords against historical peaks, we identify "Ghost Signals" before they hit the horizon a second time.
