On Currently, not all moments are created equal. Some get noticed instantly, while others fade quickly. That’s where C-Rank (Currently Rank) comes in.
C-Rank is our real-time visibility ranking system — designed to make sure the most authentic, engaging, and timely moments rise to the top in the Discover Feed, Map, and other public views.
🎯 Why C-Rank Exists
Unlike other platforms, Currently doesn’t rely on likes, shares, or viral tricks alone.
C-Rank helps ensure that:
Your moment gets the attention it deserves
The platform stays fresh, real, and relevant
Discover isn’t just popular — it’s present
📊 How C-Rank Works
C-Rank assigns a visibility score to every moment, updated in real-time. That score determines:
How far your moment spreads
How long it stays in the Discover Feed
How likely it is to appear on the Map or Trend sections
The score is based on a combination of these key factors:
🔑 Core Factors of C-Rank
1. 🖼️ Content Quality
Clear, relevant photos or videos
Meaningful captions
Properly tagged activity, place, or people
Real effort, real engagement = higher score
2. 💬 Engagement Velocity
How quickly your moment gets views, reactions, or comments
Early interaction = signal of interest
More interaction in less time = boost in visibility
3. 🌟 User Reputation
Are you consistently posting genuine, engaging moments?
Have you built a positive presence over time?
No spamming or fake content
The more trusted your profile, the higher your moments rank
4. ⏰ Recency
Newer moments are ranked higher — because Currently is about now
Older moments lose visibility as they age or expire
Freshness is priority. Always.
5. 📍 Location & Relevance
Moments from popular or nearby locations often get better placement
Check-ins in trending areas or during live events may rank higher
Right place, right time = better visibility
🚫 What Hurts Your C-Rank?
Avoid these if you want your moment to shine:
Posting blank screens or unclear media
Repetitive, spammy activity
Low-effort or misleading content
Violating community guidelines
These can lower your visibility score or prevent your moment from reaching Discover entirely.
📈 How to Improve Your C-Rank
Be authentic – share real moments, not curated perfection
Be active – post consistently, not constantly
Add context – include activity, place, caption, timer, and people when possible
Engage with others – view, react, and connect genuinely
Respect the community – good vibes and good behavior get noticed
🧠 C-Rank is Smart, Not Controlling
Unlike traditional algorithms, C-Rank doesn’t manipulate what you see — it simply surfaces the most relevant, authentic content right now.
You don’t need to go viral — you just need to be real, present, and intentional.
