Products

edit

JamiQ offers a variety of products.

JamiQ Social Media Monitoring

edit

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]

ReputationWatch

edit

ReputationWatch is a reputation management service for small and medium-sized businesses and it is a collaboration between JamiQ and Singapore telecommunications company, Singapore Telecommunications (SingTel). Email alerts about local and relevant conversations on new sites and social media platforms such as blogs, forums, social networks and microblogs worldwide are sent to users.[9]

It is built on JamiQ’s social media monitoring technology to allow businesses to track real-time online conversations about their brands in their local market and it is only available on SingTel’s myBusiness Cloud Computing portal in Singapore.[10][11]
