VidScore results are not permanent. They reflect what is publicly available at the time you view them, and they update as content changes.
Why results shift
When new videos are published, old ones are removed, or metadata is updated, VidScore's analysis adjusts accordingly. A score you saw last week may look different today. Neither version is wrong - they reflect different snapshots of the same evolving content.
What to do about it
Treat results as current, not historical. If a change seems significant or confusing, note the page URL and contact support.
Detailed reference
What you can expect
- Information appearing, disappearing, or updating without any action on your part
- Results looking different on repeat visits to the same page
- Score values shifting as the content landscape evolves
- New associations appearing as new content is published
- Existing associations disappearing as content is removed or changed
Limits
- Guarantees that results will remain stable over time
- Historical results or previous versions. VidScore shows current results only
- Explanations for why a specific change occurred
How it works
VidScore analyzes content at the time of each request. The system does not maintain a permanent record of past results. It generates fresh analysis based on what is currently available. This design ensures results stay current, but it also means they are inherently dynamic.
Several factors contribute to changes. New content is the most common: when a creator publishes a new video that mentions a person or brand, that association may appear in results for the first time. Content removal has the opposite effect. When a video is deleted or made private, associations derived from it may disappear. Updates to VidScore's own analysis methods can also produce different results for the same content, as improved methods yield more accurate outputs.
Common misconceptions
- Assuming a score drop means something negative happened. It may reflect content changes or improved analysis
- Believing a disappeared result was deliberately removed by VidScore. Most changes reflect upstream content changes
- Treating a previous result as more accurate than a current one. Current results reflect current data
- Expecting to receive notifications when results change. VidScore does not track or notify on changes
What to do
- Do not rely on screenshots of previous results as evidence of current information
