Descrición

The internet has become the key stage where users explore, comment and read the opinions of other users to make their travel decisions. Empathising with visitors is key to understanding what their experiences are, and what the destination needs to improve.

With a unique methodology, the solution proposes tracking in all public internet media: social media, blogs, forums, opinion communities, digital media, videos, etc., where the destination is talked about, and with an unlimited number of keywords.

Empath Design Factory’s Empathic Listening combines technology with a large part of human analysis. Its team, a pioneer in the area of internet listening and with 20 years of experience, is an expert in maximising the contribution of knowledge and avoiding infoxication.
