Score definitions and rubric
These are launch-record readiness heuristics, not product ratings.
Launch readiness
How complete and reviewable the launch record is, not the quality of the product.
Inputs and weights: Launch date 15%; qualifying source 10%; what launched 10%; demo 15%; category 10%; audience 10%; editorial assessment 10%; traction evidence 10%; creator or audience fit 10%.
Evidence inputs: Reviewed launch metadata, public source links, demo links, taxonomy, audience, editorial notes, and recorded traction signals.
Demo evidence
Whether the record contains useful, reviewable demonstration evidence; it is not a rating of product output quality.
Inputs and weights: Working demo URL 45%; video walkthrough 25%; clear description of what launched 10%; audience 10%; editorial assessment 10%.
Evidence inputs: Demo and video URLs plus the reviewed launch description, audience, and editorial notes.
Creator-story fit
Whether a launch has enough demonstrable evidence and audience relevance for a useful creator story; it does not predict views or guarantee coverage.
Inputs and weights: Demo evidence 25%; visual creator category 15%; audience 15%; editorial assessment 15%; traction evidence 10%; pricing clarity 10%; API or open-weight evidence 10%.
Evidence inputs: Reviewed demo, category, audience, editorial, traction, pricing, API, and open-weight fields.
- Scale
- 0.0–10.0. A present qualifying input receives its published weight; a missing input receives zero. Scores are rounded to one decimal.
- Assigned by
- Suggested by the deterministic field-completeness helper and assigned or approved by a Kingy editorial reviewer.
- Rubric and check date
- Rubric version P0-2026-08-10. The record’s “Last verified” date is the score check date. Checked: 2026-07-09.
- Confidence and missing data
- Confidence depends on source completeness. “Not scored yet” means no reviewed value; “Needs review” means the value or score set failed validation.
- Freshness
- Recalculate after a material launch, source, demo, pricing, audience, or traction change and during the record freshness review.
- Disputes
- Use “Suggest a correction” on the record and cite the relevant evidence. Commercial relationships cannot buy or alter a score.
