What decides results in fitness and wellness

  1. 1

    Authenticity before anything

    Fitness attracts bought followers. Read the authenticity score and engagement against the tier benchmark before you pay.

  2. 2

    Claims need a transcript check

    Supplements, weight loss and medical claims in reels are a compliance risk. Transcribe the last 20.

  3. 3

    Track the deliverable, not the promise

    A deliverables tab that refreshes itself catches the post that never went live.
