Are Rolli IQ investigations based on real events?

Yes. All 35 Rolli IQ investigations analyze real-world events using live social data. Events include protest movements, geopolitical crises, corporate reputation events, and public health narratives — analyzed as they unfolded.

How does Rolli IQ detect coordinated narratives?

Rolli IQ uses behavioral analysis — account age, posting cadence, cross-platform timing, network clustering, and content similarity — to produce an authenticity confidence score. Scores below 40/100 indicate coordinated inauthentic amplification.

What platforms does Rolli IQ analyze?

Rolli IQ monitors X (Twitter), Reddit, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Threads, Bluesky, and LinkedIn — 8 platforms in total — for cross-platform narrative patterns and divergence.

How quickly can Rolli IQ detect a narrative shift?

Rolli IQ operates in real time. In the Venezuela investigation, 13 million engagements were tracked within 48 hours of the event breaking — before any mainstream press pickup.

Can I request a custom intelligence demonstration?

Yes. If you want to see Rolli IQ applied to a specific event, brand, or issue relevant to your team, contact our team through the demo request form. We can often turn around a custom demonstration within 48 hours.

Detecting Term Weaponization Inside the 'No Kings' Protest Movement

XRedditFacebook

9M+ engagements (June)10M engagements (Oct)300% antifa engagement spike40% larger protests, 10% more engagement

The question

An analyst tracking protest coverage needed to explain why two protests — involving more people in October than June — were generating less positive social engagement. Was this organic narrative fatigue, or coordinated counter-messaging?

What Rolli IQ found

Rolli IQ compared June and October No Kings events (5M vs. 7M demonstrators). Topic Tree analysis found the term 'antifa' had nearly doubled in mentions while its engagement spiked 300% — concentrated entirely on right-leaning platforms.

The intelligence delivered

6 hrs

Coordinated counter-narrative confirmed: two manufactured realities from identical facts. The weaponized term was the tell — detected 6 hours before press coverage caught up.

40:1Negative-to-positive signal ratio

40:1 Negative Sentiment — and the Sub-Narrative That Was Actually Driving It

Knowing that a geopolitical topic is 'negative' isn't analysis. Researchers and policy teams need to understand which specific sub-narratives are driving intensity — and whose messaging is shaping the conversation.

5 discourse categories scored and ranked
Domestic contradiction frame identified as agenda-setter
Political messaging origin attributed

Intelligence delivered

40:1 negative ratio confirmed. The finding that domestic contradiction narratives outperformed foreign affairs analysis changed how the research framed its coverage.

Briefed comms team before single messaging strategy deployed

Intelligence delivered

Low Engagement as Intelligence: What 50,000 Mentions Tells You About a Shutdown

Most monitoring tools only flag spikes. But knowing when a major government event is generating less engagement than expected is equally valuable — it's the signal that tells teams not to escalate.

Over-escalation prevented — low-signal conclusion delivered in 2 hrs
Senate leadership silence flagged before shutdown confirmed
Saved estimated 6 hrs of crisis-level response preparation

Intelligence delivered

Actionable low-signal intelligence: the DHS shutdown was a political story, not a public panic story. Over-escalation avoided because the absence of signal was itself the intelligence.
