Listening at the level of a whole category.
Watch mentions, comments, campaigns and keywords across Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and TikTok, and chart how sentiment moves over time. Because you name the competitors you care about, you compare against real accounts and your own numbers, not an industry average you cannot inspect.
Watch which campaigns and keywords move sentiment.
Track the hashtags, campaigns and keywords around your brand and see sentiment rise or dip beside them. Tie a swing in tone to the content type that caused it, spot which influencers are talking, and map the audience behind the numbers by country and timezone.
Sentiment charted next to the campaigns behind it.

Common questions
Questions about Social listening.
How many competitors can I track?
Up to 20 competitors, tracked individually or grouped for a category view you compare against your own numbers. The count included scales with your plan; the pricing page shows what each tier covers.
Which platforms does listening cover?
Sked monitors mentions, comments, campaigns and keywords across Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and TikTok, and charts sentiment over time on those channels. It is your own and your competitors' owned social presence, not the open web.
How does sentiment tracking work?
Sked reads the tone of mentions and comments and charts how sentiment moves over time, so you can tie a rise or dip to the campaign or content type that caused it, rather than reading a single black-box score.
Can I see where my audience is?
Yes. Audience analytics break your followers down by country, city and timezone, and show which channels your ideal customers already engage on, so you can plan posting times and channel mix around real data.
Does listening handle reviews too?
Sentiment and mentions live in listening. Responding to Google Business reviews lives in reputation management, which shares the same inbox, so the read on tone and the replies happen in one workspace.
Which plans include social listening?
Listening and competitor tracking are included from the higher tiers, with the number of competitors scaling up as you go. The pricing page shows exactly what each plan covers so you can match it to your needs.
