Empatia

About

Empatia provides real-time analysis of social media comments to identify emotional content and deliver inline feedback.  Think of this feedback as a way to double check how you communicate on social media.  Sometimes we write a comment that we'll regret writing, or regret writing the way we wrote it - I hope Empatia can help with that.

This project was primarily built as a learning experience.  Suggestions for fixes and improvements are welcome. 

Currently available to run on Reddit, BlueSky, and Twitter (X). 

Getting Started 

Select supported sites: Choose which sites (Reddit, Bluesky, or Twitter) Empatia will run on.

Adjust sensitivity: Set the sensitivity for emotional feedback (higher sensitivity will detect negative emotions with a lower threshold).

Set the minimum word count you want there to be before Empatia starts analyzing the text. 

Write a comment or post: As you type, Empatia sends your text through sentiment analysis to assess its emotional polarity.

Positive feedback: Receive messages encouraging positive interactions if your comment is classified as positive.

Negative feedback: If your comment is negative, the system classifies the emotion and provides specific feedback (anger, annoyance, disgust, sadness, generic).
