Social Impact in 2023: The Data

The category grew by 27% compared to 2022, moving from 22 launches to 28. Average interest score across all 2023 launches: 108. Average engagement ratio: 0.21.

Frequently Asked Questions

More products means more competition for attention. The average drops as a category gets crowded, even if the best products keep scoring higher. That divergence is worth watching.

Use the year navigation at the top of each category page. The trends page for each category also shows top products by year in a single view.

Engagement ratio captures discussion quality. A product can game interest with a well-timed launch. It can't fake 200 substantive discussion threads. We default to engagement ratio because it's harder to inflate.

Highest community engagement at launch, measured by interest score and engagement ratio. These are traction rankings, not editorial picks.

Launch timing matters. Q1 products face different competition than Q4 products. Seasonal patterns affect both launch volume and community attention. Quarterly grouping makes comparisons fairer.
