What makes dig different?
dig sees inside video, not just around it
Sprinklr built its name as a customer experience suite, with listening as one module among contact center, publishing and marketing. It added video analysis in 2026 through the ViralMoment acquisition. dig is a social listening platform built video-first: it reads speech, on-screen text, scenes, tone, and sentiment across TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts, so you understand what a video says. See how in-video analysis works.

dig detects the narratives before they become headlines
Sprinklr is good at routing and measuring customer conversations across many channels. Narrative intelligence connects scattered signals into a single story: which claim is spreading, which creators are carrying it, and how sentiment is turning. dig also listens across TikTok by topic and competitor, where Sprinklr's TikTok listening is limited to owned @mentions and registered hashtags. With dig, a wall of mentions becomes a timeline you can read while the story is still forming.

From alert to action
A spike in volume is not a plan. dig turns detection into a decision with the RESPOND model, monitor, counter, promote, or take down, and scores each narrative by likely impact so teams triage the ones that can actually escalate. Setup is in plain language with no Boolean topic queries, so comms, risk, and legal teams spend their time acting on signals. Explore dig Enterprise, the always-on layer of the wider dig.ai platform.

Most brand conversation now happens inside video
A video is more than its caption or a logo in a still frame. The meaning lives in what is said, how it is said, the scene, the reaction, and the on-screen text that never makes it into a caption. dig reads all of it across TikTok, Reels, and Shorts, so the clips shaping your brand perception become searchable, measurable signal, with every insight linked to its source post and creator.

What Sprinklr users say they're missing
Recurring themes in public reviews: a long setup and ramp-up, analytics that depend on manual tagging, and support that is slow to resolve issues.
Can feel over-engineered unless it is set up correctly, needs trained internal teams, and takes a first-year ramp-up.
Analytics break when users skip manual tagging, and support replies often take a day or two.
Frequent errors in daily use, support tickets without helpful answers, and help pages that are hard to follow.
