MIRAGE · America’s Future R&D
See who’s really behind it.
A manufactured crowd — bought or coordinated accounts working together to make someone look popular, or to pile on and bury someone — distorts what everyone else sees. MIRAGE maps that network and shows the pattern in plain language.

What Mirage is
How to use it
Fake popularity
A crowd is boosting someone
Map the ring inflating an account — synchronized likes, reposts, and copy-paste praise that fake momentum.
Map this network →Coordinated pile-on
A crowd is attacking someone
Map who's organizing a pile-on. MIRAGE flags the coordination in the behavior — never the opinions, and never to silence real criticism.
