A consumer and market intelligence platform, now called NetBase Quid, that mines social and news data for market trends.
Quid is an AI-powered consumer and market intelligence platform, now sold under the combined name NetBase Quid. Brand, insights, and strategy teams use it to spot trends in how people talk about a market or brand. The platform pulls in more than two petabytes of data from social media, news, patents, and search activity. Its Q Platform lets a user build a custom analysis, and Q Agents run automated tasks tied to a specific business goal. Clients named on Quid's own site include American Airlines, Coca-Cola, and T-Mobile. Quid does not publish prices and instead offers a free two-week trial with limited AI agents and industry trend leaderboards.
This fits a large consumer brand or agency that needs to track how a market or brand is discussed at scale. A good starting point is the free two-week trial, which gives limited access to AI agents and trend leaderboards. Beyond that, expect a custom quote, since Quid does not list public prices; budget for an enterprise-level annual contract as a planning assumption, then confirm the real number in a demo. Two risks: the platform's petabyte-scale data pipeline can feel overwhelming without a dedicated analyst to run it, and the product appears under both the Quid name and NetBase Quid depending on where you look, so confirm which name and contract your sales rep is actually quoting.
