IdolStats Predicts American Idol Winner Through Social Media Monitoring
Attensity360 Monitors Millions of Conversations to Help Organizations Understand Consumer Sentiment
PALO ALTO, Calif., June 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Attensity™ Group, the leader in business user applications that generate value from unstructured data, successfully monitored millions of conversations on the social web to predict that Lee Dewyze would be the season 9 American Idol. Throughout the season IdolStats.com utilized the Attensity360 social media monitoring and analytics product to track the power of social media conversations in order to make educated decisions based on the social media insights.
Attensity's IdolStats.com presented a summarized view of the sentiment, coverage and general buzz about the show and each of the contestants. Powered by Attensity's social media monitoring and analytics application, Attensity360, the site presented information gathered from across the web in order to gauge American sentiment toward contestants. Attensity360 automatically aggregates and evaluates the chatter happening on blogs, message boards, forums, micro-blogs, online news media and social networks. Using this analysis, IdolStats.com then presented a rank of the contestants based on negative and positive sentiment and their share of the total American Idol conversation.
"Over 23 million Americans tuned into the American Idol finale this year to find out whether Crystal or Lee would be this season's winner but at IdolStats.com we knew the answer well in advance," said Brad Brodigan, SVP and General Manager of Attensity. "Attensity360's advanced social media monitoring technology provides organizations with predictive and actionable results by listening in on conversations across the web and analyzing them for sentiment, opinions, issues and opportunities."
Attensity has used American Idol as an exciting case study for how Attensity360 can measure conversations about companies, products, issues and competitors with broad strokes as well as provide very detailed and granular data points, such as the influence of Judge Simon Cowell, fan power-dialing and contestant "crushes." Attensity offers clients this same level of detailed insights around specific product attributes or brand messages. The social web holds invaluable information and insight into what consumers think about brands, products and services.

Attensity offers the industry's most powerful and easy-to-use analysis, delivery and response capabilities, enabling businesses to effectively listen, relate and act on information, both inside and outside of the firewall.
