JamiQ Social Media Monitoring

JamiQ's flagship product is its automated and localised social media monitoring and measurement solution that provides coverage of social media in any language. [6] Data mining methods and natural language processing technology are used to produce real-time buzz trending, sentiment detection, influence scoring, and market segmentation. [7] Unlike other similar services based in the US that do not cover local markets in local languages, JamiQ offers reach and coverage of all languages and markets and does so in every language for Asia and other multilingual/segmented market regions. Algorithms developed by JamiQ can determine the location of a blog/site even if it is not hosted locally. [8]
