Social listening answers the questions: “What are people saying right now?” and “How much are they talking about it?” It is the data collection and monitoring layer, focused on:
- Mentions of a brand, topic, or keyword
- Sentiment and engagement metrics
- Trends and spikes in conversation
Narrative intelligence detection and response is the critical layer that sits on top of social listening. Analytical, actionable, and now predictive, it focuses on:
- How harmful narrative attacks form, spread, and impact outcomes
- The threat actors and networks driving them
- Whether activity is organic, coordinated, or manipulative
