Understanding Your Quality Score
The Admin Dashboard: "Understanding Your Quality Score"
The Golden Rule: In CULTD, verified and attributed performance is not determined by how many people clicked, but by how much value stayed.
What is the Quality Score?
Influencers Quality Score is a dynamic rating (0–100) that determines thier payouts and reputation. It is calculated using two primary metrics:
- Net Retention: We measure the percentage of users who remain active 7, 14, and 30 days after the initial install. High churn (deleting the app immediately) lowers this score.
- Average Daily Balance (ADB): For financial and DeFi apps, we don't just look at the initial deposit. We track the capital held over time. $100,000 held for 24 hours is worth less than $100,000 held for 30 days.
Real-Time Analytics: "Sticky TVL" vs. "Total Clicks"
In your dashboard, you will see two competing lines on the main growth chart:
- Total Clicks (The Noise): This shows raw interest. While high clicks are good for reach, they do not guarantee a Settlement Criteria.
- Sticky TVL / Active Users (The Signal): This represents the users who passed the "48-Hour Settlement Floor." This is the only metric that directly feeds the goal. If this line stays flat while clicks go up, it’s a sign that your influencers isn't finding the product's long-term value or the positioning in their content wasn't right for the product.
