Parsing the Vine account status page

Most of this is pretty self explanatory, so I will only talk about the vague or not very well explained parts.

Total reviews, is exactly what it says. This display may lag a bit from what your review page says. It can take a couple days to catch up. I believe it turns green when you get 80 items reviewed. I have never gotten 80 items in an evaluation period. Your evaluation period is 6 months generally starting on the day you sign up (not 100% sure).

Review-to-order ration, once again pretty clear, but some people do not understand that during any 30 day period you need to keep your reviews above 60%. This is where many people slip up usually because they don't read the information provided. Mine rarely falls under 90% as I do most of my reviews pretty quickly. This display also lags a bit, by as much as 2 weeks in come cases. Which is why you should be on top of doing your reviews at all times.

Review Insightfulness score, first implemented in early summer 2025, and a cause of great panic in the vine community, especially for those that are gold tier. This metric (at this time) does not seem to apply too much to those who are silver. No one knows exactly how "insightfulness" is determined but you can see my article about it here. If you want to be Gold Tier, then (as of 9-1-2025) you will need to keep your score at excellent. This metric also lags by several days. I noted almost 2 weeks from when my last evaluation took place, and I posted my first review before it changed from "poor" to Excellent. It always resets to poor at the beginning of an evaluation period. I believe that this metric was introduce to combat the scores of poorly written reviews by gold tier viners who order tons of cheap or zero ETV items just to up their numbers I also think that at some time they might drop viners who cannot keep their score above a certain rating. Amazon shot themselves in the foot when they implemented the tier system and this is their attempt to fix it. 

Reviews with media, Also a bit controversial, and implemented at the same time as the insightful score. At this time this metric mostly does not factor in to your becoming gold, but vine cs communications indicate that at some point it might. Some people believe that you have to upload pictures to every review because why would that have that metric? The rest of us sane people are just going to continue uploading pictures and video only when needed. Some emails from vine cs indicate that a media score of between 20% and 30% will be the minimum needed to be gold in the future. My normal media upload rate is around 25%. I only upload images when it is necessary, and not just to pad my score.
