What is How It Spread?
How It Spread is a research tool for strategists, marketers and their AI agents that documents how films, products, memes and campaigns went viral. Each case study traces events from the first post to the peak, showing who amplified it, where it jumped and which platforms were involved, with dated and sourced timelines. A Spread Score lets users compare cases, and an MCP library connects the data to agents. The site offers a free sign-up to open full timelines and paid plans for deeper access.
