A Typical Engagement for a Customer Facing Company
Working with TruthEngine is straightforward, with two key solutions available for companies.
1. Signal Detection
This audit is Ideal for clients wanting to understand a company’s exposure to fake reviews.
- We run a unique, AI-powered analysis across agreed platforms to detect any signals that may indicate fake or manipulated reviews
- We present a detailed report of our analysis and findings. During this session, we discuss any signals detected and work with the client to identify their cause.
- We provide documentation which the client can use to facilitate the removal of any suspect reviews and to demonstrate to regulators that they take reasonable steps to protect consumers from exposure to fake reviews.
2. Ongoing Protection
Ideal for clients who have undertaken a TruthEngine® audit, TruthEngine® protection is an ongoing service that regularly analyses a client’s reviews. The analysis can be as regular as near real-time and enables companies to demonstrate to regulators and consumers that they have robust procedures in place to protect consumers from exposure to fake reviews.
3. Proof of Compliance
Companies whose reviews meet and exceed the TruthEngine’s strict authenticity standards get to display the TruthMark®.
Lawmakers, regulators and journalists who see a brand displaying the TruthMark® see an ethical and transparent business who has engaged a neutral third-party intermediary to independently authenticate their reviews.
They can see immediately that this brand is taking the required ‘reasonable steps’ to conform to the DMCC Act or local equivalent
