AI-powered sentiment analysis uses Natural Language Processing (NLP) to automatically detect the emotional tone – positive, negative, or neutral – expressed within text data, such as customer reviews, social media posts, or survey responses. As of early 2026, current systems include sophisticated machine learning models trained on vast datasets to accurately interpret nuanced language and even detect sarcasm.
- Real-time Monitoring: Track brand mentions and customer feedback across platforms like Facebook, Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), and popular Australian review sites like ProductReview.com.au.
- Automated Categorisation: Automatically tag feedback based on sentiment, allowing you to quickly identify areas needing attention – for example, consistently negative comments about delivery times.
- Customisable Lexicons: Personalise the AI’s understanding of Australian slang and industry-specific terminology to improve accuracy.
- Integration with CRM Systems: Sentiment scores can now features direct integration with platforms like Salesforce and HubSpot, enriching customer profiles.
In 2026, Australian businesses must also be mindful of privacy regulations when collecting and analysing customer data. ROI.com.au’s sentiment analysis tools are designed with compliance in mind, ensuring adherence to the Privacy Act 1988 and relevant state legislation. We also account for the increasing use of colloquial Australian English, which can sometimes confuse generic AI models.
