You get an authenticity tier
A 0–100 score and a tier — from Authentic to Suspect — with the estimated real-follower share.
How the authenticity estimate works
You can't directly audit someone else's followers, so this is an estimate from the patterns that bought audiences leave behind — not a definitive verdict.
We look at view-through (what share of followers actually see a typical post — a very low ratio is the classic signature of an inflated base), engagement realism for the account's size, and comment quality, then combine them into a 0–100 score mapped to a tier.
We deliberately never return 0 or 100 — that's certainty we don't have. A “Suspect” tier is a flag to look closer, not proof. The full, measured Authenticity Score with five sub-signals lives inside the app.
Numbers you can act on
Inflated follower counts waste ad budgets and partnership deals. A quick authenticity read before you collaborate — or before you trust a competitor's numbers — is cheap insurance.
ViralVault's full Authenticity Score breaks the estimate into five measured sub-signals: follower realism, engagement realism, comment quality, growth pattern and audience health.
Common questions
How can you tell if TikTok followers are fake?
You can't see them directly, but bought audiences leave patterns — very low view-through, engagement that doesn't match the follower count, low-quality comments. This tool reads those signals into an estimate.
Is the score definitive?
No. It's a simplified estimate from public signals, deliberately never 100% certain. Treat a low score as a reason to look closer, not as proof.
What's a good authenticity score?
Authentic (90+) and Mostly Authentic (75+) are healthy. Mixed, Suspect and Unverified mean the signals are worth a second look.
How is this different from the full Authenticity Score?
The free check is one combined estimate. The in-app Authenticity Score breaks it into five measured sub-signals and is built for proper diligence.
