Questions before you choose
What is narrative tracking?
Following a theme over a defined time window: how much it is discussed, who discusses it, what is said, and how that account changes.
How does a narrative differ from a sentiment score?
A narrative describes the subject and framing of a discussion. Sentiment summarizes tone within a source sample. A useful brief includes the theme, tone, dates, and supporting sources.
Does sharing MCP access make tools interchangeable?
No. A shared read‑only connector describes access, not the same product. Use Perception for cited‑source briefs and add a mindshare tool when the question is attention or KOLs.
How can I try Perception?
