Outlier Post Finder
Overview
Find social posts that beat an account's normal performance. The goal is not just to sort by views. The goal is to identify posts that performed unusually well for that creator or brand, then explain the repeatable patterns.
Use ScrapeCreators as the data layer. Pull recent public posts, normalize engagement metrics, calculate each account's baseline, and produce an outlier report with source URLs and practical takeaways.
When to Use
Use this skill when the user asks to:
- find outlier posts, viral posts, top posts, best reels, best shorts, best TikToks, or best tweets
- analyze why a creator's content is working
- find competitor posts worth copying or learning from
- build a swipe file from high-performing social posts
- compare performance across a creator's recent posts
Do not use this for raw endpoint lookup only. Use scrapecreators-api for direct API routing.
