Automatically detect negative brand mentions across social platforms, analyze sentiment and context with AI, and generate appropriate response strategies for your PR team.

Workflow Steps

1

Brandwatch

Monitor social mentions in real-time

Set up Brandwatch to track mentions of your brand across Twitter, Reddit, TikTok, and news sites. Configure alerts for volume spikes or negative sentiment thresholds.

2

Zapier

Filter high-priority alerts

Connect Brandwatch to Zapier to trigger workflows only when mentions exceed normal volume or contain crisis-indicating keywords like 'lawsuit,' 'controversy,' or 'boycott.'

3

OpenAI GPT-4

Analyze crisis severity and context

Send the mention details to GPT-4 to assess crisis severity (1-10 scale), identify key stakeholders affected, and determine if this is viral content or isolated complaints.

4

OpenAI GPT-4

Generate response strategy options

Based on the analysis, have GPT-4 create 2-3 response strategy options: acknowledge and apologize, provide clarification, stay silent, or escalate to legal, with pros/cons for each.

5

Microsoft Teams

Alert crisis response team

Post the analysis and response options to your crisis management Teams channel, tagging relevant stakeholders (PR, legal, C-suite) for immediate review and decision-making.
