Press footprint sparse

Percentiles computed over the modeled cohort (embedding + signal + tags). Sparse dimensions — network and press — reflect that most products have zero, so a single edge or mention lifts the rank; read those with the coverage flag.

Low risk

Higher risk than 0% of the universe.

This is a model estimate, not a verdict. 78,505 of the 79,105 modeled products are unlabeled and scored by the model only.

n=600 is thin → 95% CI on AUC ≈ ±0.10. Treat as a directional signal, not a calibrated probability.

Analyst read

Nextdoor sits in the 46th percentile of Launch Sentinel's 79,105-product universe by signal, ranked #3,920 of 11,555 in Entertainment. The mortality model puts its probability of going inactive at 0% — a model estimate with a wide confidence band. It sits on the competitive-alternatives graph with 6 linked rivals, so the comparable set below leans on curated edges. Signal momentum is positive (WoW +92.7).

Comparable set

curated alternatives → functional tag-similarity

Company	Basis	Signal	P(dead)
ScorIQentertainment	similar	15.7	80%
Ubicommunication	tag-overlap	15.7	92%
Foursquare Trip Tipstravel	tag-overlap	11.4	37%
Hike Messengercommunication	tag-overlap	18.6	78%
ALWcommunication	tag-overlap	15.7	77%
Hago gamesgaming	tag-overlap	30.0	1%
Words with Friendsentertainment	similar	18.6	7%
Bashentertainment	similar	15.7	81%

Confidence reflects source and category coherence: curated = an editorially linked alternative; similar = strong functional tag-overlap in the same category; tag-overlap = shared tags only and may be noisy. Signal & P(dead) are real / model.
