Why This Metric Matters
Facial control and category fit influence booking direction. High technical quality can still underperform if expression, angle, or category alignment are inconsistent.
How BModel Measures It
BModel combines face sub-scores, confidence quality, and category-fit matrix outputs to estimate market alignment.
