AI Social Listening
Turn online conversation into consumer intelligence
Capturing, analysing and deriving action from every post, review and forum thread — with models that understand context, not just keywords.
Beyond mention tracking
AI-powered social listening goes well past counting mentions. It is the work of capturing and interpreting every post, review and discussion, and turning that into something a business can act on.
- Gauge brand sentiment and reputation as it moves
- Detect emerging trends and shifting consumer needs
- Uncover competitor strategy and market gaps
- Catch a PR problem before it escalates
- Surface product ideas and improvement opportunities
- Measure campaign impact with precision
The gap
Where conventional tools fall short
Traditional approaches produce real value, but they consistently miss the parts of human communication that matter most.
- No contextual understanding
- Keyword systems see words, not the situation those words sit inside.
- Sarcasm and irony
- The posts that read as glowing are often the most damaging, and the reverse is just as common.
- Multi-faceted comments
- One sentence can praise the room and condemn the check-in. A single sentiment score hides that.
- Coarse sentiment
- Positive, negative, neutral is not granular enough to act on.
- Multilingual content
- Most systems handle one language well and the rest through translation, which loses the nuance you were looking for.
The shift
What large language models changed
- Context is king
- Models grasp the broader shape of a conversation, including cultural nuance and industry jargon.
- Sentiment 2.0
- Granular enough to separate different aspects within a single sentence.
- Multi-attribute analysis
- Identify and score every attribute mentioned in one piece of content, not just the dominant one.
- Complex language
- Sarcasm, irony and regional dialect are interpreted rather than mis-scored.
- Language barriers
- Accurate analysis across languages without separate models or round-trip translation.
Capability
What that makes possible
- Effortless attribute discovery
- Manual attribute coding is slow and error-prone. Our models surface product features — battery life, packaging, interface — without being told what to look for, including attributes that fly under a human analyst's radar.
- Advanced LLM reasoning
- Beyond counting: generating data-driven hypotheses about behaviour, identifying causal links between attributes and sentiment, forecasting shifts, and returning specific recommendations rather than observations.
- Structured, multilingual output
- Consistently structured data across more than 20 languages, with no separate systems and no manual translation step.
