Brand Monitoring for Marketing Teams

Know Exactly What the Market Thinks of Your Brand

Your customers talk about you on Reddit, X, LinkedIn, and Hacker News every day. Most of it never reaches your inbox. Octolens captures every mention — so your marketing decisions are based on what people actually say, not what you assume.

The Blind Spots in Your Marketing Stack

You See Metrics, Not Conversations

Your dashboard shows traffic went up. But you don't know that three Reddit threads are calling your product slow — or that a viral tweet just sent 500 people to your competitor's page.

Competitive Intel Is Manual and Spotty

You check competitor Twitter accounts when you remember. You miss the Reddit thread where a user explains exactly why they switched away from you.

You Can't Measure What You Can't See

You ran a campaign. Brand mentions spiked — but you have no way to track where, who said what, or whether the sentiment was positive. You're guessing at impact.

From Blind Spots to Full Visibility in 5 Minutes.

1. Set up your keywords

Your brand, product names, competitors, category terms. Track them all from one place across 11 platforms.

"Wild AI-native onboarding experience. I literally entered zero input other than `vercel⁠.com` to get my Octolens feed up and giving me mentions"

What Marketing Teams Use Octolens For

Protect Brand Reputation in Real Time

Someone posts 'Product X is slow' based on outdated info. With Octolens, your team sees it in minutes and responds with the facts — before it becomes the narrative.

At Vercel, community sentiment is as important as enterprise feedback or usage data. If Reddit or X tells us we're misaligned, that's enough for us to make a move.

Brian Emerick

Technical Program Manager, Vercel

Track Competitive Positioning

Monitor what users say about your competitors alongside your own brand. Know when they ship, when they stumble, and how users compare you — without checking five platforms a day.

If we see someone talking about using Prisma with another database, we'll jump in and say: 'Hey, we now offer our own database too.' That kind of visibility is key, and over time, it has a real impact on adoption and revenue.

Manager of Developer Advocacy, Prisma

Measure Campaigns That Are Hard to Measure

Ran a billboard? Launched a rebrand? Shipped a product update? See the real-time conversation it generates across every platform — even when people don't tag you.

We ran a billboard campaign — something notoriously hard to track. But thanks to Octolens, we saw real-time reactions. It gave us a clear brand signal that would've otherwise been invisible.

Find Positioning and Messaging Insights

Discover how users actually describe your product — in their own words. Use that language in your landing pages, ads, and sales decks instead of guessing what resonates.

We saw people using different terms to describe us. It made us realize we were misaligned. That insight directly shaped our external messaging.

Discovered community stories for blog

We were getting generic alerts without context. It told us someone mentioned Tally, but not what they said, where, or the sentiment. Octolens changed that completely.
