The Diversity Score Algorithm is calculated by adding the Number of Diverse in Film and 0.25 times the Number of Intersectional in Film. That value is divided by Number Known in the film. Then it is then multiplied by 10 and divided by the Percentage of Diverse in US population.

A diagram of Filmify’s tech stack. Data from Letterboxd, TMDb, and a Postgres database enter a box labeled “API”. Data from the API then moves toward a box labeled “Admin” and a box labeled “Web”. The “Web” box is then connected in a straight line to Heroku, then Cloudflare, and finally a glowing light representing the end users.
