We we can tell you how and why things are taking off, not just give you a lot of numbers like a dashboard service. We've been surprising even ourselves with what we've turned up so far for our first clients. Here’s an example: </p></td></tr><tr><td class="dd" align="left" style="padding:0px 15px;text-align:left;word-break:break-word;"><p style="mso-line-height-alt:150.0%;"> A progressive organization recently asked us to analyze the social media landscape for key demographics in a major 2026 Senate race.

This gave our client the tools to engage users around their passion and refine their messaging to connect with how hard these voters were hustling to climb the ladder. And we quickly discovered a whole universe that the custom car content existed alongside, including aspiring hip-hop stars, MrBeast wannabes (more on that in a sec), sports betting, and even cowboys. </p></td></tr><tr><td class="dd" align="left" style="padding:0px 15px;text-align:left;word-break:break-word;"><p style="mso-line-height-alt:150.0%;"> Our research not only supports the work of digital strategy teams and influencer outreach, but also paid advertising programs, message development, and old-fashioned organizing. Just like here in the newsletter, we map channels through which ideas move. We won’t promise we can help you go viral, but we can reveal the mechanics of what takes off online — the relationships between platforms, key accounts, posting formats, algorithms, etc. </p></td></tr><tr><td class="dd" align="left" style="padding:0px 15px;text-align:left;word-break:break-word;"><p style="mso-line-height-alt:150.0%;"> Like I said, we don’t do dashboards, or “sentiment analysis,” or metrics that are increasingly meaningless as platforms manipulate engagement data. We examine the internet like humans, not statisticians or robots. We get to know online communities the same way users do — by following accounts and expanding our networks post by post. Our researcher Ellie Hall first developed this technique — which we call “Spiderwebbing” — to do OSINT research on ISIS. Unlike automated platforms, our manual approach allows us to see in real time how the algorithm is shaping what users see. And our researchers can give you the context to make sense of raw information. </p></td></tr><tr><td class="dd" align="left" style="padding:0px 15px;text-align:left;word-break:break-word;"><p style="mso-line-height-alt:150.0%;"> The line between "online" and "offline" stopped meaning anything a long time ago.
