The difference

What makes dig different?

01

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.

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.

dig vs Sprinklr FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What does Sprinklr not cover that dig does?
Sprinklr is a customer experience suite with listening as one of its modules. On TikTok, Sprinklr's help center says its listening covers @mentions of your own business account and up to 50 registered hashtags, and that general keyword and competitive listening is not supported. dig listens openly across TikTok by topic, competitor and category, reads the speech, on-screen text and visuals inside each video, and uses natural-language setup with no Boolean queries.
Does Sprinklr analyze video?
Yes, since 2026. Sprinklr acquired ViralMoment in May 2026 and added ViralMoment-powered video intelligence in its Summer '26 release. dig was built for video from the start: every post is read across speech, on-screen text and visuals and combined with comments and creator data in one record.
Is dig a good Sprinklr alternative?
For social listening and consumer insights, yes. Teams that run customer care, contact center or publishing in Sprinklr often keep it for those jobs and use dig for video-first social intelligence, since the two platforms do different work.
Do I still need Boolean queries like I do in Sprinklr?
No. Sprinklr topics are built with Boolean queries using AND, OR, NOT and proximity operators. In dig you describe what you need in plain language, dig builds the watch plan, and the dig chatbot answers follow-up questions with every answer linked to its source post.
How accurate is dig compared to other social listening platforms?
dig has 95% accuracy in tagging relevant posts, brand mentions, and narratives, finds 90%+ of relevant brand mentions even when the brand isn't named, and keeps 100% traceability, with every insight traced back to the source video.
