Unveiling Ask Weaver: The Future of Insight at Your Fingertips

We’re excited to unveil one of the most significant advancements ever released on Locus Elite — Ask Weaver, an intelligent conversational analysis engine that allows you to chat directly with your data.

This breakthrough marks a major shift in how organisations explore insights, interpret narratives, and respond to fast-evolving information landscapes.

💬 Analyse Your Data by Simply Asking Questions

For the first time, you can explore any of your search-query datasets — news articles, social media posts, digital conversations, and more — by using natural language questions.

❌ No Boolean strings.
❌ No complex dashboards.
✔️ Just ask, and Ask Weaver instantly understands what you’re looking for.

Because it relies exclusively on your existing Locus Elite datasets, you can trust that every insight is:

✔️ Relevant
✔️ Accurate
✔️ Fully traceable

It’s an entirely new, intuitive way to unlock the intelligence hidden inside your data.

⚙️ How Ask Weaver Works

Ask Weaver uses your existing search queries as the foundation.
It gathers every matching article and post, processes them in real time, and delivers powerful structured insights such as:

• Thematic summaries
• Sentiment and narrative breakdowns
• Trend patterns
• Country-wise reactions
• Influencer and source mapping
• Side-by-side comparisons
• It also keeps track of the full conversation, allowing you to deepen your analysis step by step.

➡️ Every answer is built only from your Locus Elite data
➡️ 100% of all relevant articles and posts are always included

This brings a new level of reliability, auditability, and analytical confidence.

Getting started is simple:

STEP 1: Go to “More” in the main navigation menu on the Listening Page.
STEP 2: Select Story Weaver from the left-side options panel.
STEP 3: Choose Ask Weaver from the dropdown menu.
