Content Analysis Metrics - Methodology

When we read or watch something, it's important to know how good it is and how well it matches what the persona needs. Subatomic has six important metrics to measure how well content does its job. These metrics are evaluated using AI to make sure the content is useful, clear, and engaging for the audience. In future enhancement's we'll allow you to create your own metrics using similar descriptives and scoring rubrics.

1. Alignment

What it Means: Alignment checks if the content fits well with what the audience is interested in, their values, and what they need. It's like making sure a story about pets is read by someone who loves animals.

How it’s Measured:

  • Relevance to Interests and Needs (0-40 points): Does the content talk about things the audience cares about?
  • Consistency with Values and Lifestyle (0-30 points): Does the content respect and reflect the audience’s way of life?
  • Problem-Solution Fit (0-30 points): Does the content clearly show how it solves a problem the audience has?

6. Unmet Need
