The problem it solves

A bad review or angry post can spiral into a full-blown crisis before anyone on your team even sees it. By the time someone stumbles across the mentions, the damage is already spreading and you're reacting instead of getting ahead of it.

Who it fits

PR, marketing, or communications teams responsible for protecting brand reputation.

How it works

  1. Every ten minutes the system scans Twitter/X, Reddit, and news sites for mentions of your brand
  2. It filters out duplicates and anything already reviewed
  3. AI reads each mention for sentiment and compares it against your normal baseline
  4. If it detects a sharp negative swing, it classifies the severity and sends alerts to Slack, email, and a tracked ticket
What you get

Reputation crises you catch before they spread

You get an early alert the moment sentiment about your brand takes a sharp negative turn online.

What you get

An instant alert with a crisis severity rating and a tracked ticket, sent the moment sentiment turns negative.

What you need

Accounts for the social and news monitoring services, plus Slack, email, and a ticketing tool.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
