BackerLens analysis

🟡 Below the Fiction category average. This project has hit 1% of its goal, while the average live Fiction project on Kickstarter sits at 290% (100% below the category).

Early Momentum: 7 / 100 — low potential. Project is in its first 28 hours, so the score reflects funding-velocity-per-hour rather than 24h trend.

How is this calculated? ›

BackerLens uses an empirical Kickstarter funding curve: ~30% of final pledged comes in days 1-3, ~70% by 85% of duration, then a final-week push to 100%. We divide current pledged by where the curve says we should be at this point in the campaign.

Project is in its first day or two — forecast is highly speculative and will tighten as more data comes in.

This is an experimental model. Don’t bet sourcing decisions on a single number — the funding curve cross-section is just a heuristic.
