The Opinion Compass Agent Scraper identifies and evaluates publicly expressed stances by analyzing posts from major social platforms. It determines whether an individual supports, opposes, or is neutral about a specific statement using contextual, evidence-based scoring. This tool is ideal for researchers, journalists, analysts, and teams working with public sentiment interpretation.
- Collects publicly available posts related to the specified person and opinion.
- Scores each evidence source using Opinion Score (−1.0 to 1.0) and Relevance Score (0.0 to 1.0).
- Aggregates evidence into a final stance score weighted by relevance.
- Generates a structured output with explanations and supporting text.
- Ensures insights are interpretable, comparable, and grounded in contextual data.

- Academic researchers study opinion evolution using evidence-based scoring.
How accurate is the stance score? The score reflects the most recent and relevant publicly available evidence. While the model is highly capable, results should be interpreted as analytical guidance, not absolute truth.
Can I analyze any individual? Yes, as long as their content is public and ethically accessible for opinion-based analysis.
Does it support multiple opinions at once? Each run processes one person and one statement. To analyze multiple opinions, run separate requests.
How long does analysis take? Most evaluations complete within a few minutes, depending on data volume and evidence complexity.
Primary Metric: Average analysis completion time: 2–4 minutes for a typical query with 5–15 evidence points.
Reliability Metric: Consistent evidence retrieval success rate above 97% across supported platforms.
Efficiency Metric: Optimized relevance-weighting pipeline processes evidence with minimal overhead, maintaining stable performance even with expanding datasets.
Quality Metric: Aggregated scores maintain high interpretability, with evidence explanations covering 95%+ of contributing factors clearly.
