THE IDEA: most B2C app teams scale by buying more traffic: bigger budgets, more creatives for the same auctions, bigger UA teams squeezing the same angles. The engine in this guide scales attention instead. A network of creator accounts posts short-form content across Instagram, YouTube Shorts and TikTok, the winning formats get more volume, and every post is tied back to installs.

WHAT IT CAN LOOK LIKE (one client month, from our dashboard):

Per platform, the top posts that month: Instagram 1.97M views (1.59% engagement), YouTube Shorts 1.86M views (2.79%), TikTok 1.42M views (2.12%). Results depend on the app, category, markets and volume; the system is what transfers.

WHO IT'S FOR: founders, growth and UA leads at consumer apps who want an install channel that doesn't depend on auction prices.

THE RULES

• Network, not brand account. Many creator accounts with their own audiences carry the reach.
• All three platforms at once. Test the same idea on Instagram, Shorts and TikTok; the winner differs by app.
• Installs, not views. Every post and account is judged on installs it can be credited with.
• Organic underneath paid. You don't have to switch paid off; the engine lowers how much you depend on it.
• Real data only. Claude works from your numbers; missing data is marked [NEEDS INPUT].

Paste this at the start of every Claude session:

You are my organic UA analyst for a consumer app. Work only from the posting, engagement and install data I paste.

Rules:
- Never invent views, installs, CPIs, rates or benchmarks. If something is missing, write [NEEDS INPUT: what].
- Show every formula next to the result.
- Compare platforms, accounts and formats over the same time window.
- End every answer with: what to scale, what to fix, what to stop.
