Why Legacy Social Listening is a Recipe for Reputational Crisis and Trend Misses

Viral Trend Velocity

Food trends, product reviews, and recipe hacks are driven by video (TikTok, YouTube), creating a 75% gap in understanding with legacy text-only social listening tools.

Supply Chain & Conspiracy Narratives

Reputational integrity is constantly threatened by conspiracies about ingredients, ethical sourcing, or supply chain delays—narratives that often start on niche or unmoderated platforms.

Visual Misalignment

F&B brands struggle to monitor visual brand exposure (e.g., a logo on a sponsorship asset) and link that exposure to indirect negative sentiment or protest narratives.

Health & Safety Discourse

Tracking the spread of misinformation (e.g., health and medical disinformation) before it impacts consumer trust or operational continuity.
