Modelfindr Market Pulse — May 2026

Powered by ObsidianSignal Intelligence • May 2026 snapshot vs April 2026

Engagement across tracked cam platforms showed selective expansion over the month of May, with demand growth outpacing engaged supply on some networks. Bonga recorded a 32.46% April through May increase in qualified user views, compared to a 14.71% increase in engaged supply, producing a compression signal of +17.75. Chaturbate showed similar directional strength, with demand up -6.49% versus supply up -8.70% (compression +2.21).

Platform Momentum (May 2026 vs April 2026)

Demand is measured as deduplicated qualified views. Engaged supply is the count of distinct models receiving at least one qualified view in the period. Compression is demand growth minus supply growth.

What Compression Signals Mean

Positive compression indicates demand expanding faster than engaged supply, which may improve visibility conditions for active creators.

Negative compression indicates engaged supply expanding faster than demand, which often corresponds to increasing competitive density.

This is directional signal derived from observed behavior across Modelfindr's network. It is not a census of the full industry.

Methodology

Demand is computed from qualified view events and deduplicated using hashed IP plus user-agent. Non-human activity is filtered using minimum time-on-page and scroll depth thresholds. Engaged supply is defined as the number of distinct models receiving at least one qualified view in the measured period.
