Future gravitational wave detections will enable us to directly learn which binary black hole populations are astrophysically relevant. In turn, increased knowledge of these populations allows us to perform targeted modeling studies that enable the inference of bulk features, such as radiated energy and peak luminosity. In this talk I will present strategies to followup future detections with targeted modeling studies. As an example of utility, I will discuss the inference of radiated energy and peak luminosity of binary black hole mergers.
