Government’s Twitter Trend-Spotting Tool Is Now Free To The Public

By Yi Chen on January 20, 2012


Quantum Leap Buzz is developed by CEO Joseph Budner Eldad to help analyze tweets and pick up on trends before they even reach mainstream media. Buzz is based on similar analytics Eldad helped develop for government officials to examine geo-political, world health, economic and military trends. Now, the program in beta version is free to download for anyone with a Windows or Mac computer.

The continual, rapid growth of Twitter, Eldad believes that any major events and trends can now be identified from Twitter data. You can search on any subject and Buzz will scan through hundreds of current tweets and organize your query into patterns of topics and themes ranked by frequency and relevance.

The free beta version expires on 29 February and users can purchase an annual Consumer Edition subscription to Quantum Leap Buzz for $10 a year. A business edition of the software will be released in April and will cost $500 annually.
