Anatomy of a tag,
in three numbers.

Type a hashtag. The decoder hands back its rough volume, competition score, vibe, and any shadowban risk. The numbers are illustrative; the framework is what we use inside the product.

Numbers below are illustrative — we don't have live platform-API access. The framework (volume / competition / vibe / shadowban flag) is what matters: it's the same one we use inside the product.

How this works

Opinions,
not magic.

This tool runs entirely in your browser. Nothing goes to a server; nothing is logged. We keep it simple so you can see exactly what it's doing.

  1. Numbers come from a deterministic hash of the tag string — illustrative, not live platform data.
  2. Vibe classifier runs against six bucket archetypes (discovery / niche / aesthetic / saturated / branded / flagged).
  3. Shadowban risk is checked against a curated allow/deny list of well-documented soft-suppression tags.
  4. Companion suggestions stem from the tag root + a small library of editorial suffixes — clickable to re-decode.

Want this automated?

Aloha's Composer pulls live tag data per channel and suggests companions tuned to your voice — not a generic chart.
