Gossip

Solution: Crisis Detection

Stay ahead of the potential crisis.

Most modern reputation crises don't begin with a press release. They begin in a podcast comment, a TikTok moment, a livestream incident. By the time the article runs, the conversation is already two days old. Gossip listens to spoken media in real time, scores severity as it happens, and alerts your team while there's still time to act.

The new origin point

It's not a press release anymore. It's a clip.

Reputation crises used to begin in writing: a journalist's phone call, a press release going out, an article appearing in print. Most don't anymore. They begin in a podcast a CEO didn't realise was being listened to, a TikTok that builds overnight, a livestream comment that gets clipped and shared by morning. By the time a story is written, the conversation has been live in spoken media for hours or days. Gossip listens where the modern crisis actually starts: across podcasts, video, livestreams, and social video, so your team isn't reading about it in a newsroom alert at 7 a.m.

From mention to alert

Minutes, not the next morning's media report.

Most monitoring tools deliver a media report in the morning. By then, your team is reacting to a story other people are already telling. Gossip transcribes and scores spoken mentions within minutes of publication, and pushes high-severity alerts into your inbox, Slack, or email the moment a threshold is hit. The earlier you know, the more options you have: a quiet correction, an outreach to the host, a prepared statement. Speed buys you choices.

Alerts you can actually trust

A bad mention isn't a crisis. We tell the difference.

Comms teams who tried real-time monitoring before usually came away tired of false alarms. Every grumpy review pinging the inbox at 11 p.m. is worse than no alerts at all. Gossip scores each mention on severity, combining sentiment, emotion, speaker influence, source reach, and momentum, so your alerts surface the things that genuinely warrant a response. A single negative review stays a single negative review. A pattern forming around a high-influence voice does not.

The difference

Before and after.
