Info: In order to access the workspace-settings or to add a new channel in Swat.io, you need permissions as “workspace manager”. In case you don’t have this permission, please contact your Swat.io administrator.

AI Sentiment Analysis

  • Positive: Friendly, supportive, or praising

  • Neutral: Factual, unclear, or neither positive nor negative

  • Negative: Critical, dismissive, or generally negative

If no clear sentiment can be assigned, none will be set.

AI to mark comments as “read”

The AI identifies comments that don’t require a reply and marks them as read.
Examples:

  • “Exactly what I was looking for😍!”

  • “Great post😁!”

  • “Thanks for the insights!”

Option: Can be applied during or outside business hours.

AI to hide comments

The AI hides comments with inappropriate content, such as:

  • Generally offensive or disrespectful remarks

  • Use of swear words to intensify negativity

  • Hate speech or racist prejudice

Differing but factual opinions will not be hidden.
Examples of tolerated criticism:

  • “The statistics in this post seem incomplete …”

  • “The arguments in this article are not comprehensive enough …”

Option: Passive mode → AI only suggests hiding instead of acting automatically.
Timeframes can also be set (Edit → Save).
