The Problem

Why do most approaches fall short?

Customer surveys have a 2-5% response rate and massive selection bias. The customers who respond aren't representative. The ones who leave silently never tell you why. Meanwhile, they're telling everyone else on forums, Google Reviews, and social media.

Our Approach

How do we solve it differently?

We mine every public conversation about your brand: reviews, forums, social media, support communities, comparison sites. We build a complete picture of what customers actually think. Not what they tell you in a survey. What they tell each other when you're not listening.

Common Questions

Customer Intelligence FAQ

What is customer sentiment analysis?
Customer sentiment analysis measures how people feel about your brand, products, and services by analyzing reviews, forum discussions, social media posts, and support interactions. We go beyond star ratings. Our analysis covers 20 years of consumer discussions, 13.8 million consumer complaints (CFPB), and review data across major platforms to show what customers think and how that perception has changed over time.
How is this different from social listening tools?
Social listening tools like Brandwatch or Sprout Social track mentions and basic sentiment on social platforms. We analyze everything social listening misses: forum discussions, niche communities, review platforms, consumer complaint databases, and long-form discussions where people give honest opinions instead of performing for followers. The deepest insights live where social tools don't look.
How far back can you analyze sentiment?
Our consumer discussion analysis covers 20 years (2005-2025). Review platforms give us 3-10 years depending on the source. This historical depth shows you the trajectory, not a snapshot. You can see exactly when customer perception shifted and correlate it with product changes, PR events, or competitor intelligence.
Can you track sentiment for specific products or features?
Yes. We break down sentiment by product line, specific features, customer segments, price tiers, geographies, or any dimension you define. Want to know what enterprise customers think about your onboarding vs. what SMBs think? We can slice it that way. The more granular the question, the more useful the answer.
What are the 4 C's of customer intelligence?
The 4 C's are: Collection (gathering customer data from every touchpoint), Consolidation (merging data across sources into a single view), Contextualization (adding market and competitor context), and Communication (delivering findings as recommendations, not raw data). Most companies get stuck at Collection. We handle all four.
How do you handle fake reviews?
Our multi-agent verification flags suspicious patterns: sudden review spikes, duplicate language across accounts, and unusual reviewer profiles. We weight verified purchaser reviews higher and note when fake review campaigns are detected. If a competitor is running fake reviews, we flag that too. See our competitor customer capture service for turning that into leads.
