MoodwireBuzzRank™
BuzzRank captures the valid occurrences of companies or products in raw data. BuzzRank filters away
spam, repeated tweets, and non-relevant text. For example, a text passage containing the word “apple”
could be a discussion about the company Apple® or it could be a discussion about fruit. BuzzRank™
technology identifies and counts the relevant passages to provide a reporting mechanism for our
customers so they can see both the raw occurrences of terms (such as fruit and the company here) vs.
relevant occurrences of terms (regarding Apple® the company and not fruit) online.

Separate from buzz is categorization of passages in to logical groupings. For example, we categorize
comments about "hotels" by type such as “rooms”, “service”, “baggage” etc. This allows a customer (a
hotelier in this example) to view only those comments relevant to particular aspects of their business.
TypeRank™ is different than sentiment, as people may make statements which don‟t contain sentiment
but are still very valuable for our customers to see what is being talked about in public.
MoodwireMoodRank™
This is our sentiment engine output. It measures the degree of positivity or negativity of a given passage,
such as tweets, blog posts etc. MoodRank™ provides customers with a clear picture of the human
emotions that are being expressed about their company, brands, product lines and services.
MoodwireAPI™
The Moodwire API™ provides full programmatic access to all moodwire.com data feeds and analytics
for use in our partner's and customer's own data analysis products. We provide full access to all of our
metrics including MoodRank™, BuzzRank™, TypeRank™ in sortable JSON feed format in near real-time.
