Key business information and insights live in collaboration

  • Sentiment indicates whether the emotion behind communication is positive or negative. Companies with happy employees outperform the competition by 20%.
  • Toxic speech determines if conversation is healthy, inappropriate, or toxic. Toxicity leads to lower morale, higher turnover, and lower productivity.
  • Negative sentiment is part of healthy organizations—but when conversations turn toxic, your culture is compromised. Aware provides the context necessary to understand the meaning and intent behind these conversations, so you can stay ahead of potential problems.
