How we compute this
Engagement rate is calculated per video as (likes + comments + shares) / views, then the median, mean, and 90th-percentile are derived across 150 public TikTok videos sampled via the SocialCrawl API endpoint /v1/tiktok/search using several broad search queries. Videos with zero views are excluded. The snapshot was last computed on 2026-06-29.
