Convergence detection

Changed on

Detect startups that 2 or more of your tracked accounts (threshold, default 2) followed independently within a time window. Startups only: A result is kept only if our curated companies table marks it a company, its entity type is company, project, protocol or product, and it has at most 25,000 X followers (the same ceiling the daily reports use). People, investors, VC firms, media, organizations, public companies and big established brands are left out, as is anything not yet classified. Results are ranked by how many tracked accounts converged (followed_by). Costs 60 credits; zero convergences cost 0 credits. threshold (alias min_accounts) sets the minimum converging accounts; use 3+ for high conviction. Default window is 7d when since is omitted. Typical chain: /convergence, then /company/{handle} and /company/{handle}/founders on the hits.
