At VineSight we fight disinformation on social media. Specifically, we built an early warning system that helps our clients protect their brand’s reputation and messaging from disinformation and toxic attacks. Our network-based AI analyzes share-patterns - not the content itself - to identify toxic narratives. This allows us to move fast and review toxic trends across the social graph, no matter whether the medium is text, images, videos, or deepfakes. Once our clients are aware and informed of relevant disinformation attacks, we help them respond quickly to defend their reputation and messaging. We also provide our clients and selected journalists with a daily feed of viral misinformation that our AI detects on social media. These narratives often focus on vaccines, COVID-19 and other current subjects.
