Where the conditions came from
Three sources, read side by side
Each is placed on a −1 to 3 scale from documented evidence, and the three are never added together. A combined total would rank Daisy Keech against other people. Held apart, they explain why this path ran differently from another one—which is the only comparison this project supports.

What capability, drive, or early skill is documented in the person rather than their surroundings?
Built a fitness modeling following on Instagram from January 2018, reaching 2.8M followers, then expanded to TikTok with 2.9M in seven months. Capable content creator with fitness modeling appeal but not exceptional cognitive endowment.

A −1 is a documented headwind, not a missing value; a 0 means the sources record nothing notable either way. Annotation confidence: Low. These are analyst readings of what the sources record, not measurements of merit, talent, or effort. The twenty-two scored dimensions remain available inside the deeper research detail.
What moved through the conditions
Perseverance and luck stay visible—not scored.
Documented perseveranceGrowing to 2.8 million followers within approximately two years.
This records repeated behaviour or recovery described by sources; it is not a grit or merit score.
Luck and unobserved varianceNo discrete luck event is documented in the reviewed biographical summaries.
A successful-only archive cannot recover all encounters, avoided setbacks, or alternative outcomes.

Notable, but primarily known within a niche. The tier summarizes documented career recognition through the data cutoff—not Daisy Keech's worth or future potential.
Each non-zero lever gets a best-supported origin, evidence signals, and confidence. Unresolved is the honest default when the biography cannot distinguish self-built, advantage-enabled, earned, external, or mixed.

This is a bounded inference from the current annotations—not a claim about private effort, merit, or the percentage of Daisy Keech's outcome attributable to any origin.
Luck is not a leftover score.
Structural luck, Encounter luck, Event luck, Outcome variance can change every arrow in the path. This successful-only dataset cannot observe the near-identical paths that did not break through, so luck stays visible and unscored.
Within Creators / artists, Daisy Keech's starting-advantage total is at the 27th percentile. Separately, their built or converted leverage total is at the 27th percentile. Other T4 profiles average 5.9 / 24 starting advantage and 10.4 / 25 leverage. Similar scores appear in other tiers, so these figures describe positioning—not a cause.
