This is like a very smart “mood detector” for text. It reads what customers write in emails, chats, reviews, or social media and automatically figures out whether they’re happy, angry, or worried—and why—so your teams don’t have to read everything manually.
Manual review of customer feedback, tickets, and reviews doesn’t scale and leads to slow response times, missed churn signals, and inconsistent quality. A comprehensive review of sentiment analysis techniques shows how to automatically detect and quantify customer emotions and opinions across huge volumes of text, enabling faster triage, quality monitoring, and insight generation.
Moat typically comes from proprietary labeled data (domain-specific sentiment, slang, and context), deep integration into service workflows (CRMs, ticketing, QA), and continuous model adaptation to brand- and industry-specific language rather than from algorithms alone, which are widely published and commoditizing.

Labeling and maintaining high-quality, domain-specific sentiment datasets; managing drift in language (slang, sarcasm, new products) and balancing accuracy vs. inference cost when moving from classical ML to deep/LLM-based approaches.

This work is a broad survey, not a single product; its value is in mapping the full landscape—classical ML, deep learning, and emerging transformer/LLM-based sentiment approaches—highlighting open challenges such as sarcasm, domain adaptation, aspect-level sentiment, multilinguality, and explainability. A commercial implementer can use this to choose an appropriate stack (from lightweight supervised classifiers to LLM-based models) and to prioritize roadmap items like aspect-based sentiment, real-time monitoring, and cross-channel coverage.
