Company profile
researched Sep 2026Sentiment Search operates a customer feedback analytics platform for the hospitality sector. The product consolidates feedback from review platforms, social platforms and delivery platforms into a single dashboard where operators can track, analyse and respond to individual pieces of feedback in real time. An industry-specialised AI model analyses each line of every review to produce quantified category-level sentiment scores and AI-generated summaries for any category and date range, intended to show how sentiment varies across different aspects of a venue.
Beyond aggregation and analysis, the platform provides automated review responses generated with ChatGPT and configured to a brand's tone, competitor analysis covering market and neighbourhood views with NPS and sentiment comparisons, and an insights bot that answers natural-language questions and surfaces recommended actions for general managers and operations managers. A feedback-collection module, Guest Signal Studio, lets operators build branded feedback journeys that connect to a POS or ordering app, generate dynamic forms from guest orders and produce dish-level insights; forms integrate with CRM systems and can be deployed via QR codes, post-visit emails or order-and-pay apps, and are positioned for A/B testing.
