How does PULSE pick the best time to go live for Sneakers?

PULSE sweeps Sneakers about once an hour, around the clock, and reads the live viewer count of every room Whatnot's feed lists in the lane. For each hour of the day it measures the lane's live viewers and its typical room (the median room outside the 3 biggest) across 686 sweeps since 2026-09-11. It names an hour only once every hour of the day has been read at least 3 times. It leads with the hour the typical room is biggest while that hour still draws at least 60% of the busiest hour's audience, and with the busiest hour otherwise. These are PULSE's own observed counts, not official Whatnot figures.
