Native-Language Analyst Review
Native-speaking analysts read the actual posts, threads, and comments in their original language so the sentiment scoring and context summaries reflect what local audiences really mean.
Native-Language Social Intelligence for Global Brands
Automated social listening platforms have mature sentiment models for English and a handful of major European languages. For everything else, raw scoring is unreliable, and the nuance that drives commercial decisions (slang, sarcasm, cultural references) is missed entirely. International brands monitoring in English-only miss the majority of the conversation that actually shapes purchase decisions in their target markets. Mentions in other languages can be reviewed with the help of expert translation services before they enter the report.
How we approach social listening
Our social listening service combines commercial monitoring tools with native-speaking analyst review across the major global platforms (Facebook, Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit) in 50+ languages. Reporting cadence (weekly, every two weeks, or monthly), output format, and the specific metrics we track (brand mentions, competitor share of voice, sentiment context, emerging topics) are agreed during onboarding and scoped to what each client actually needs. For region-locked platforms such as Weibo, WeChat, VKontakte, Naver, Line, and Xing, we recommend a specialist local listening tool or agency. Findings can be presented live through professional interpretation services, and official certified translations of the report can be prepared when a US board or a European regulator asks for an official copy.

Social Listening: Frequently Asked Questions
Which platforms and languages do you monitor?
Monitoring covers the major global social platforms: Facebook, Instagram, X, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, and Reddit, in 50+ languages. We do not directly monitor region-locked platforms such as Weibo, WeChat, VKontakte, Naver, Line, or Xing. For programs that need those platforms, we recommend a specialist local listening tool or agency.
How do you handle sentiment analysis in languages with no native tool support?
Commercial social listening platforms have mature sentiment models for English and a small number of major European languages. For languages such as Japanese, Arabic, Korean, and most Southeast Asian languages, automated sentiment scoring is unreliable. Our approach uses automated tools for volume monitoring and keyword flagging, with native-speaking analysts reviewing flagged content to score sentiment accurately and identify context that automated tools would misclassify.
How quickly will we be alerted to an emerging issue in a non-English market?
Alert thresholds are set during onboarding for each market. A spike in mention volume, a shift in sentiment score, or the appearance of defined alert keywords triggers a quick notification to your designated contact during active monitoring. For markets where your team does not speak the local language, the alert includes a translated summary of the flagged content and a brief context note from our analyst. Decisions on official response remain with your in-house communications team.
