Voxpopme advances video research automation with sentiment analytics
Voxpopme integrates IBM Watson’s machine learning and natural language processing capabilities to deliver advanced video sentiment analysis.
Voxpopme announced the release of new sentiment analytics for video. This is designed to bring brands closer to customers’ feelings towards products, services, adverts and more.
The new sentiment analytics is powered by IBM Watson, which uses machine learning and natural language processing to identify the underlying sentiment in each sentence. This is used to process the transcribed text of video in the Voxpopme platform. It determines each sentence’s sentiment and categories them into positive, negative or neutral.
IBM’s system aggregates huge volumes of text data from social platforms to build an understanding of sentiment without the human biases that are often present in manual analysis. The shift towards automated sentiment analytics removes the subjectivity of human conclusions, vastly increasing speed, scalability and accuracy.

A deeper level of analysis is also available when using this with sentiment applied to Voxpopme’s Theme Explorer. Here, Theme Explorer provides a quick look view to demonstrate the sentiment breakdown of each theme identified within a video project to identify the most positive and negative sentences related to that theme.
Dave Carruthers, Voxpopme CEO:
“We’re delighted to be releasing our new sentiment analysis tools. Clients will now be able to understand the subtle nuances of every comment made.
We’re focused on accuracy at Voxpopme, so any new automation is assessed to discover the best blend of human and machine analysis. With sentiment, it’s clear that automation removes the margin for human error and increases speed and accuracy. In contrast, we’ll still be crowd-sourcing human transcriptions within 15 minutes as this still deliver far greater accuracy than machine transcription.
Along with our other platform features, sentiment analytics builds a deeper understanding of large volumes video, in less time, to establish tangible insights that can drive business outcomes.”
