How this score was calculated

Component	Value	Weight	Points
Attention growth	30%	0.30	+8.9
Coverage growth	0%	0.25	+0.0
Cross-source breadth	33%	0.20	+6.7

Opportunity = trend 23.7 × (1 − saturation 48%) × stage weight 1 × niche relevance 0.5 = 6.2

Saturation parts: volume 84%, time elevated 18%, mainstream 0%. Spike ratio = mean of the last 3 days ÷ median of days 4–31. A source counts as spiking at ≥ 1.5× and robust z ≥ 2.
