About

LLM-backed alternative to VIRALITY for predicting whether a piece of content is likely to go viral. Reach for this when the base NLI operator can't read the social dynamics behind the text — timing, cultural references, in-joke signals, outrage triggers — and you need judgment-heavy reasoning rather than label-matching. Like VIRALITY, it supports an optional `mechanism` argument to focus the prediction on a specific viral driver (humor, outrage, inspiration, controversy, novelty). For content-strategy workflows scoring thousands of posts, VIRALITY is far cheaper and good enough for trend detection. Use the LLM variant on edge cases.
