Inspiration

We wanted a way to better understand social topics by aggregating user feelings.

What it does

Use cases:

• As a daily consumer, I can analyze tweets and comments so that I can understand how others feel about a topic.
• As a business owner, I can analyze tweets and comments related to my business so that I can understand my customers' sentiment towards them.
