Abstract: As part of a business strategy, effective competitive research helps businesses outperform their competitors and attract loyal consumers. To perform competitive research, sentiment analysis may be used to assess interest in certain themes, uncover market conditions, and study competitors.

AI-powered sentiment analysis can be used to learn what the competitors’ customers think of them across all aspects of the businesses.
