KOL Intelligence

What KOL Intelligence is​

KOL Intelligence shows which tokens KOLs are calling, scored by Cognivo. A KOL is a well known caller who posts publicly about the tokens they are buying or watching. Cognivo reads those public posts, works out exactly which token and which network each one is about, counts every call once, and then works out its own numbers from what it saw.

Use it when you want to answer a question like "who called this token, and when?", "is one person repeating themselves or are a lot of different people saying the same thing?", or "what happened to this token after it was called?".

Attention is not a recommendation. A high score means a lot of different people were talking about a token quickly, and nothing more than that.

Where to find it​

In the dApp sidebar, open the Intelligence group and select KOL Intelligence.

The banner at the top explains where the numbers come from, and every call links back to the caller's own original post so you can read the words yourself. The Ask about a token or caller box takes a plain question, such as "Who called SHRUB?" or "What is the Cognivo Call Score?". Asking is free, and the answer describes Cognivo metrics and the calls Cognivo observed. It is not financial advice.

The tabs​

The page is split into seven tabs: Live Calls, Tokens, KOLs, Trending, Outcomes, Alerts and Sources.

Live Calls​

Live Calls is the running feed. Each card gives the caller, the time of the call in UTC, how long ago that was, and the market cap at the moment of the first call. Pause updates freezes the feed so a card does not move while you read it. View original KOL post opens the post itself, and View full call opens everything Cognivo holds on that one call, including the Proof of Call trail: when the post appeared, when Cognivo imported it, and whether the contract could be confirmed on chain.

Tokens​

The Tokens tab groups everything by token instead of by post. Cognivo Call Score combines how many different callers named the token, how quickly the calls arrived, how early the first one was, and whether the contract checks out on chain. Security warnings subtract from it. Caller breadth is how many genuinely different callers named it, so three callers reads as "A few callers" rather than being dressed up as a crowd. Signal velocity says whether attention is speeding up, steady or cooling, and it describes the shape of the attention, never the direction of the price. The buttons on each card hand the token straight to Token Analysis, Holder Concentration, Liquidity or Security Check.

KOLs​

  1. Type into Search a KOL or caller name to go straight to one caller instead of scrolling the list.
  2. Open All chains to narrow the directory to callers active on one network.
  3. Change the Most calls dropdown to reorder the directory.
  4. Use the buttons on any card to Open KOL for the full record, Set alert, Ask Cognivo, or Pin to compare.

24h Pulse is a plain count of what Cognivo saw in the last day: posts analysed, structured calls, unique callers, unique tokens and repeat called tokens. Below it, the ranking uses calls from the last 24 hours weighted by how recent they are and how many distinct callers were involved. The range chips switch the view between Rising in 1 hour, Rising in 24 hours, Rising in 7 days, Multi source convergence and All time, and the Different callers filters hide anything below 2, 5, 10 or 20 separate callers.

Outcomes​

  1. Set Result to keep only the calls that turned out a particular way.
  2. Turn Being tracked on to see only the calls Cognivo is still following.
  3. Read Change since the call for the move so far, and the checkpoint it was measured at.
  4. Check the checkpoint timeline to see which follow ups are captured and which are still scheduled.

Outcomes follows a call forward in time. Cognivo takes a snapshot at 5 minutes, 1 hour, 6 hours, 24 hours and 7 days after the call, and reports the change since the call at each one.

Alerts​

Every alert lands in your Cognivo inbox. If you have connected Telegram, alerts can reach you there as well, and connecting is optional. The counters show how many of your alerts are Active, Paused, Triggered and how many hit Delivery issues.

  1. Pick A caller or A token under What should Cognivo watch?, which sets what the rest of the form asks for.
  2. Search a ticker, or paste a contract address, to tie the alert to one exact token rather than a ticker several tokens share.
  3. Choose the network in the Network dropdown, because Cognivo will not assume one for you.
  4. Set Wake me up when to the activity you want to hear about, such as Calls this token again.
  5. Select Create an alert once the yellow Still needed list is clear, and note that creating and managing alerts is free.

You can also watch a token instead of a caller. The form then asks for the token and its network, and Wake me up when offers triggers such as A new caller picks it up, which fires when a caller who had never mentioned that token calls it for the first time.

Sources​

The Sources tab is the methodology, headed How Cognivo KOL Intelligence works, together with a section called What this cannot tell you. Read it once before you rely on any of the numbers.

What an empty or unknown result means​

A blank is a blank, not a zero and not a clean bill of health.

  • Not measured yet on signal velocity means there were not enough calls spread over enough time to describe the shape yet.
  • Scheduled on a checkpoint means the follow up has not come due. Not recoverable means it passed with no snapshot, and Cognivo will leave it blank rather than guess a past value.
  • Not confirmed on chain confirmation means Cognivo could not tie the call to a contract. That counts for nothing positive.
  • Confidence: Low means there is little evidence behind the numbers on screen. Missing evidence always lowers confidence and is never quietly treated as a good sign.
  • An empty Outcomes result means Cognivo has not imported a call for that token, so there is nothing to measure.

Limits​

Cognivo only sees public posts it has observed, so silence is not proof that nothing happened. Historical snapshots for a token start when Cognivo starts watching it, which is why some checkpoints honestly read as insufficient data. Callers can be wrong, can change their minds, and can be paid.

None of this predicts price and none of it says a token is safe. The Cognivo checks that go deeper, such as Token Analysis, Holder Concentration, Liquidity and Security Check, cover Ethereum, Base and BNB Chain. Calls about tokens on other networks still appear in the feed, but those checks will not run on them.

Cost​

KOL Intelligence is free. The feed, the caller records, Trending, Outcomes, the Ask box and creating or managing alerts all cost nothing, and receiving alerts is free on every channel. Only three things in Cognivo charge credits: Bubble Maps at 1 credit, Smart Accounts at 2 credits and Wallet Intelligence at 6 credits. Cognivo quotes the cost first and only charges after you say yes.

Next​

Pin two to five tokens and take them to Compare token calls to see the call signals side by side. Before acting on anything you find here, run Token and contract analysis and check Holder concentration. To manage every alert in one place, see Alerts, and to add Telegram delivery see Link Telegram.
