Lexalytics announced new capabilities in its Salience engine to interpret emoticons, abbreviations, and slang. The update includes contextually appropriate interpretations of the @ and # symbols in Twitter.
Networked Insights launched SocialSense Categories, a syndicated research service that combines a simplified workspace with content curation and research summaries by NI analysts. Categories are defined around industry verticals and market segments (such as Automotive and Moms), and each includes preconfigured topics to eliminate the initial setup effort.
The simplified work environment is designed to accommodate more senior—and less analytically minded—users than the company's flagship SocialSense platform, but the full environment is available to users who want to go deeper in the data.
Pricing for SocialSense Categories is $500/month for the first category and $350/month for each additional category. NI offers the EcoGreen category as a free trial.
