Influencers & brands
In the interests tab we will find out more about the audience and/or its segments’ affinities. This area helps you to understand what/who the audience are interested in, through the use of filters and rankings. People follow accounts they have an interest in, and they engage with accounts that are relevant to them.
This graph shows the brands and individuals the audience members have a greater affinity towards (who they follow). The larger the affinity, the greater these brands and influencers' reach is within your audience (meaning more of your audience loves them!). You can use this information to find influencers, potential partnerships, and keep an eye on competitor brands. This information will be particularly useful in identifying the unique characteristics for re-naming your segments.
You are able to order the profiles by uniqueness or by affinity (default setting). If you select order by uniqueness the accounts are ordered based on our uniqueness algorithm in comparison to the baseline. If you select order by affinity the accounts are ordered based on the percentage of the audience which follow these accounts. You also have varying levels of uniqueness to use too.
You can create a custom ranking, read more here.
Paid users, are able to filter the Influencers and Brands by type of account, category, and more:
- Country - any country, including globally (all).
- Category - select from a range of categories, such as Finance, Healthcare, Politics or Magazines.
- Content creators - choose from LinkedIn, Tiktok, Youtube, and more.
- Biography - search for keywords, e.g. 'gmail' to find users publicly sharing their email, or 'journalist' for journalists.
- Influence - the number of followers, macro, micro, or your own custom input
- Type of account – this can be brands or individuals
For example: You may want to just see individuals in the fashion industry in order to find fashion influencers within your audience.
Paid users are able to export this list of accounts by clicking on the Actions drop-down menu, and export influencers into XLS, or add them as an audience in the Connect platform.

Interests
The Interests Category Tab determines the interests of an audience by amalgamating two primary signals: user-generated posts and followed content/accounts on X. These signals are clustered according to The Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) content taxonomy standards and guidelines, representing the percentage of the audience or segment interested in each category.
This graph offers quantitative interpretation, showcasing the weight of various interest categories within either a segment or the full audience. By comparing against a baseline, you can pinpoint the most pertinent insights for your audience.
Utilize the filter to identify interest categories related to a specific topic or explore interests around a particular theme. For instance, filtering by "Sports" allows users to focus solely on Sports-related interests within the analyzed audience, minimizing irrelevant noise.
Please note that the ranking always displays the absolute position of the interests, even when filters are applied.
