Social listening for video and image

The conversation stopped being text. Your listening tool did not:

  • Read what a video says out loud, through its transcript.
  • Read what a cover shows: the setting, the text on screen, whether anyone appears.
  • Read the comment sections underneath, where people actually react.
  • Transcripts, covers and comments
  • 10,000+ posts and accounts analyzed daily
  • TikTok, Instagram and YouTube

A keyword search cannot hear a video

Analyze the image, not the caption around it

Visual social listening means reading the post itself: what is on screen, where it was shot, how it opens and what is said. That is where the pattern lives, and no caption describes it.

Every post that surfaces for your keyword can be transcribed and read, not just matched by its caption.

A brand mentioned out loud in a video is a mention. Your current tool never saw it.

58% of the viral posts in your niche are shot at home.

Across the other niches it's 37%. It doesn't say that's what made them viral, it says what the ones that got there look like.

Bring it into your content without copying anyone.

@calai.appCOMPETITORSSep 9

@calai.app's videos between 10 and 15 seconds median 2.4× the views of everything longer they post.

Measured on their last 60 posts, against their own median.

Try that length on your next video.

You've posted about pricing 5 times. All 5 beat your median, and no other topic does that.

Listening that opens the post instead of skimming its caption

ContentScout transcribes what is said, reads what the cover shows and goes through the comments, at scale, across your whole niche. That is how a listening report can tell you the setting, the opening and the promise behind what worked.

Built for the platforms where nobody writes anymore

A viral library you can filter visually

Filter by production style, setting, mood and format, which is impossible when a tool only indexes words.

Trends read from the video

A trend is a shape: an opening, a beat, a framing. We read it from the posts instead of from a hashtag count.

Alerts on untagged mentions

The mention spoken on camera that no tag-based alert will ever catch.

FAQ

Listening that reads the post itself and not only the text around it: the spoken transcript, what the cover shows, the setting, the format, and the comments underneath. On video-first platforms, that is most of the message.

Because they were built to index text and match keywords. A video has almost no text to index: the words are spoken, the message is on screen and the reaction is in the comments. Matching a caption misses all three.

Yes, and it is the clearest example of why this matters. A creator saying your name out loud is a mention that a tag-based alert will never surface.

The spoken transcript, the text on screen, the setting and production style, whether people appear, the opening, the length and the comment section.
