PHOENIX ALGORITHM SIMULATOR

MASTER THE
X ALGORITHM

Test your content against the real X algorithm weights before you post. Based on the open-source xAI Phoenix ranker with 19 engagement predictions.

CORE MECHANICS

Phoenix Engagement Weights

These are the actual engagement weights from the xAI X algorithm source code. The Phoenix model predicts 19 different engagement actions.
