A businesses--- ability to understand the answers to these types of questions before it---s too late is the key to whether they succeed or fail. Here---s the good news: The answers to these questions and many more just like them can be found by examining the world---s largest unfiltered data set, social media. Each day, millions of people all over the world post about their interactions with brands and products, giving us a unique and authentic perspective on consumer behaviors and attitudes. The bad news: Many social tools are not equipped to deliver clear and actionable answers to these questions. To gain an understanding of these posts, most brands currently use traditional social listening methods. Their ability to answer the questions falls short as social listening analysis is limited in its comparative capabilities. The industry has been in search of a tool that can structure the world---s largest unfiltered data set in an easy-to-use comparative analytics platform. Enter Social Standards. Social Standards has developed an industry-defining consumer research platform that harnesses the power of collective intelligence to deliver deep insights on consumer conversational data. The platform provides a powerful alternative data set that supplements market and investment analysis by driving a quant-based understanding of consumer motivations and market direction.

These structured data sets are accessed through an intuitive, multi-screen interface --- enabling true comparative analytics and relational mapping and allowing the user to dive deeply into the consumer conversation.
