Narratives & disinformation detection
How are we unique?
ABTShield’s team includes both disinformation/behavioral experts and technological leaders, using Artificial Intelligence (AI) machine learning, sentiment measurement, and automated behavior analysis tools on a customized mix of platforms to consolidate customized, actionable data for clients. This combination of expertise allows ABTShield to identify the moment emerging narratives or artificial activity in the information sphere threatens a client’s objectives.
The customized approach ensures that information monitoring is tailored for each client’s needs – by policy issue, brand consideration, or platform – and is flexible enough to provide real time data.
ABTShield has the ability to adapt to the most relevant platforms; a moving target in today’s market. ABTShield’s agility means we will be where the action is, as soon as the action moves there.
ABTShield is:
FOCUSED ON NARRATIVES. A different scale of magnitude and complexity than tracking responses to brands.
SENSITIVE. ABTShield identifies what is sticky and what people are talking about BEFORE the news stories get written.

QUALITATIVELY EVALUATED: There is always a human at the helm every process in our company. We believe technology is key, but qualitative analysis is irreplaceable.
MEANINGFUL. Includes analysis of disinformation narratives (goals, consequences, scenarios).
DATA DRIVEN. Ongoing monitoring of multiple data sources.
SCALABLE. Not limited to a specific language or territory.
ACCESSIBLE. Offers 24/7 flexibility for data access anywhere. Daily reporting.
MULTILINGUAL. International coordination/ local languages in 150+ countries.
ABTShield Alerts
ABTShield provides a comprehensive, client-tailored warning system (Information Operations radar) providing ongoing, real-time analysis of relevant internet traffic using AI, machine learning, and human analysis. ABTShield will identify emerging threats, tracking online activity that could signify new threats, delivering information on new „high volume” narratives and origin analysis (organic vs artificial)
ABTShield will identify emerging disinformation narratives and allow to impact the conversation, instead of working from a reactive position.
Understanding what public commentary is organic and which is artificial will enable assessments about when threats are coming from malign actors, and when public education efforts are necessary.
Detect and analyze relevant narratives emerging online – tracking client-identified areas of interests as well as newly-appearing topics (e.g. „company X avoids paying taxes”, „Poles in favor of building a nuclear power plant”, etc.).
Analyze social reactions to news and articles (is a topic sticking and spreading in the information sphere?).
Detect bot and troll attacks on publisher sites, webpages, commentary, forums, or social accounts based on ABTShield’s proprietary, award-winning behavioral analysis.
